either press and hold down theVOLUME UPorVOLUME DOWN
button to automatically step through the volume levels for each mode, or

							7.17 Switching The Dialing Mode
Between Pulse And Tone
If the telephone service in your locality is pulse (rotary dialing), the
installer arranges your telephone to dial in this manner. If you need to
send tones during a dialing sequence (for example, to send
bank-by-telephone tones), you can convert to tone dialing mode while
dialing. The system will switch back to pulse dialing when you end your
call.
You can store a # as part of a speed dial number to cause an automatic
switch from pulse to tone where needed in a number sequence.
·To convert to tone dialing at any time during dialing or while on an
active call,
1.
Press#.
7.18 Using Background Music

							7.19 Using Direct Inward
System Access (DISA)
This feature allows you to call into the digital communications system
from an external telephone. You can call directly to intercom extensions
and talk to the intercom parties or, if the system includes a voice mail
option, leave messages for them if they are not available. When you call
the DISA telephone number and dial your authorization code, the system
treats your call as it would treat one coming from a system telephone and
permits you to use many of the same features that you can use when you
are calling from your assigned station. (Authorization codes are
associated with personal or group intercom numbers and are assigned to
you by your installer when he or she programs the system.) If you use
your DISA access to make a call through the system and out on an
outside line, the system applies all the toll restriction and automatic route
selection to the call that the installer has programmed for the line that
you are using. If you dial an incorrect authorization code, or the system
is busy with other DISA calls, you will either hear an error tone, or the
system will automatically route your call to one of the following areas
(as determined by your system installer):
•a designated station where you can talk to the system attendant,
•a digital voice announce that will prompt you to take additional
action,
•a proprietary voice mail station where you will be prompted to
leave a message.
The system allows you three tries at dialing your authorization code
before it routes your call as detailed above.
Some systems provide voice prompts to DISA callers and other systems
do not. If you encounter voice prompts when you call on the DISA line,
follow the prompt directions to complete your call.
Further, some systems with voice prompt enhancement, provide a
one-digit menu that prompts you to dial a single digit to reach available
departments, use system features, or obtain operator assistance.
NOTE: DISA is not recommended for use on loop start lines without
disconnect supervision. While DISA will function, Comdial will
not be liable for its performance under any condition where
disconnect supervision is not provided.
Comdial has taken reasonable steps in the design of all product features,
including DISA, which protect against unauthorized or fraudulent access
to, or use of, a system, or which protect against unauthorized, fraudulent
or unaccounted-for access to, or use of, long distance lines. However, no
system is entirely invulnerable or immune from unauthorized or
Large Screen Speakerphone Manual  7 – 17
GCA70–349 Using The Other Telephone Features 
						

							fraudulent access or use, or unaccounted-for access or use, and therefore
Comdial disclaims any and all liability, and makes no warranty, express
or implied, relating to unauthorized or fraudulent access or use, or
unaccounted-for access or use.
·To make a DISA call to an intercom number,
1. Dial number for DISA line (listen for voice prompt if available).
2. Dial extension number.
3. If station does not answer or is busy you will either hear busy
tone or hear voice prompt if available. If you dial an invalid
number, you will hear error tone.
4. If voice prompt provides dialing codes, dial proper code for
services such as: track, message waiting, or voice mail.
·To make a DISA call to use system features,
1. Dial number for DISA line (listen for voice prompt if available),
2. Dial authorization code (listen for voice prompt if available;
otherwise, hear stutter-style dial tone—remember, the system
gives you only three tries to dial your code correctly),
3. Dial feature code and listen for acknowledgment tone.
NOTE: If you are selecting a line group through DISA for outside
calling, you can raise the audio level on this line when needed.
Do this before you select the line by dialingSS7, and then
dialing 1 for 0 dB, 2 for +3dB, or 3 for +6dB of gain. In some
cases, added gain can introduce circuit instability that presents
itself as a singing sound, which can interfere with dialing and
voice communications. If you experience this condition , select
a lower gain setting.

							7.20 Using The Tracker Paging System
The Tracker Paging System option allows you to send call back and
parked call messages to Tracker pagers assigned to station extension
numbers.
Along with the parked call message, the system parks the call in orbit for
retrieval by the paged party. The type of message that the system delivers
(either alphanumeric or numeric-only) is dependent upon the Tracker
pager model in use at the station.
When outside callers call into a system that has both a Tracker Paging
option and a voice mail option installed, the system gives these callers
the option of either leaving a message or tracking the person that they are
calling.
If you have a Tracker pager assigned to your personal intercom number,
you can receive messages that someone else sends you. The system
automatically installs the Tracker pager for your use; however, you can
disable it when you do not wish to receive paged messages and when you
leave at the end of your day. Of course, if you do disable your Tracker
pager at the end of your day, be sure to enable it at the beginning of your
next day.
Your LCD speakerphone includes an interactiveTRACKbutton;
however, if your day-to-day operation includes extensive Tracker usage,
such as in an attendant function, your installer may include aTRACK
button at a programmable button location.
