    Unanswered pages return to you for further assistance. If the allotted time for 
    paging announcements expires during the page, the call disconnects and you hear 
    an intercept tone (alternating high-low, siren-like tone or fast busy tone).
    Assisting Callers with Special Tools
    This section covers features that allow you to provide special assistance to callers. 
    It includes ways to hold callers on the line, interrupt an existing call, override 
    existing features designed to block incoming calls, assist callers who need to 
    reach a series of system users, or manage emergency calls.
    Using Call Waiting
    When you transfer a call to a busy line, the call returns to the console until the 
    busy line becomes available. When the busy line becomes available, the call 
    automatically rings through. If the line does not become available, the call rings 
    back to you for further attention.
    Example
    A customer, John Steele, places a call to customer service representative Leah 
    Hoffguard. Leah is serving another client, but hears a beep in her ear indicating 
    that she just received an incoming call. Pat notifies the caller that Leah’s line is 
    busy. Leah brings her current call to closure and John’s call automatically rings 
    through to her extension.

    nIf the line does not become available within the time preset by your 
    system manager, the call rings back to you. To try to transfer again, 
    repeat steps 1 through 3.
    Split-Swap
    You can alternate between active and split calls by pressing the 
    SPLIT-SWAP 
    button. This operation happens only if you have a split call and an active call, and 
    both calls are in the talking state. If you press the 
    SPLIT-SWAP button during 
    non-talking states (for example, dialing, ringing states, and so forth), then the 
    split-swap operation is denied. For outgoing trunk calls, the state of the trunk is 
    considered to be in talking state once the trunk is cut-through or the trunk answer 
    supervision timer times out.
    The 
    SPLIT button lamp remains lit during the split-swap operation and the SPLIT 
    button lamp flutters if the split-swap operation is denied. The Split-Swap lamp 
    stays off during the split-swap operation.
    During the split-swap operation, if you:
    npress the SPLIT button, then all parties are joined in conference and further 
    presses of the 
    SPLIT button or the SPLIT-SWAP button are denied.
    npress the RELEASE button, then the active call and the split call are 
    connected.
    npress the HOLD button, then the active call and the split call are connected, 
    and the connected call is put on hold.
    npress the CANCEL button, then the active will drops and the split away party 
    joins with you as the active call.
    Example
    George calls you and you press the 
    START button and dial Harry, who answers. At 
    this point, George is split away, and Harry and you are in conversation. If you 
    wish to consult with George, but do not want Harry on the same call with George, 
    then you can press the 
    SPLIT-SWAP button which will split Harry away and George 
    is in conversation with you. If you press the 
    SPLIT-SWAP button again, then Harry 
    will be active with you and George is split away.
