Queued CO Ringing Flash Rate
Description
The Queued CO Ringing flash rate is the rate at which a CO Line button or Loop button 
flashes when a queued line becomes available. This flash rate can be programmed to 
29 different options identified in the flash rate table. This enables the programmer to 
customize the key system configuration to desired flash rates.
Programming Steps
1. Press the QUEUED CO RING flexible button (FLASH 07, Button #11). The following 
message displays:
2. Enter a valid number (00-28) on the dial pad to correspond to one of the 29 available 
options. (Refer to Table 2-14 on page 2-148.)
3. Press HOLD to save the entry. A confirmation tone sounds and the display updates.
DEFAULT … Queued CO Ringing flash rate is set for a Green 480 ipm Flutter (22).
Reminder Ring Timer
Description
When a CO line rings at a busy station, the call rings at the station using muted ringing. The 
CO Line Ringing Option feature enables a user to receive a reminder ring instead of muted 
ring. This timer provides a reminder ring every time the timer expires, as long as the incoming 
CO line remains connected.
If the user continues their present conversation and the CO party does not hang up, the 
Reminder Ring timer expires and the user receives another ring burst. When the key set user 
ends the existing call, ringing for the CO call reverts to normal ringing.
The Reminder Ring Timer setting is variable from 00-99 seconds in 1-second increments.
Programming Steps
1. Press the REMINDER RING flexible button (FLASH 01, Button #18). The following 
message displays:
2. Enter a valid number on the dial pad that corresponds to 00-99 seconds in 1-second 
increments. A value of 00 disables the timer, therefore the user only receives one ring 
burst at the beginning of the call.
3. Press HOLD to save the entry. A confirmation tone sounds and the display updates.
DEFAULT … Reminder Ring Timer is set to 00 second.

							CO Ring Detect Timer2-97
Chapter 2 - Features and Operation
CO Ring Detect Timer
Description
The CO Ring Detect Timer controls the time necessary to detect an outside line ringing into 
the system. The duration of the ringing signal from the CO or the PBX is matched with ringing 
detection circuitry in the XTS. The ring detect can range from 200 ms to 900 ms programmed 
in 100 ms increments. This timer helps prevent false ringing.
Programming Steps
1. Press the CO RING DETECT TIMER flexible button (FLASH 01, Button #11). The following 
message displays:
2. Enter a valid number on the dial pad that corresponds to 2-9 (200 ms to 900 ms).

Conference
Description
The two types of conferencing are the multi-party conference and the unsupervised 
conference.
Multi-party conference -  can include up to eight parties. A maximum of five external parties 
can be conferenced.
Unsupervised Conference - the conference initiator can exit a conference with two outside 
parties and leave them in an unsupervised conference. The initiator can re-enter the 
conference at any time. The XTS can automatically terminate the call when both parties hang 
up, when Loop Supervision is provided by the Telco and enabled in the database. A 
programmable conference timer disconnects the unsupervised conference if the initiator 
does not re-enter.

Conference Combinations
Description
Only stations that have conference enabled can institute a conference.

Add-On Conference -- Up to eight internal parties can engage in a conference, or seven 
internal parties with one external party.

Multi-Line Conference -- One internal station can engage in a conference with up to four 
outside parties.
Capacities
The total number of conferences that can be conducted simultaneously system-wide 
depends upon several factors. The following table shows the system capacity for conferences 
using specific amounts of parties per conference. Multiple conference capacity 
configurations are possible. For example, you could have one 8-party conference and five 
3-party conferences simultaneously.
Operation
To establish a Conference:
1. Lift handset.
2. Select intercom station or dial desired outside party.
3. When called party answers, press the CONF button.
4. Add next conference party by selecting another outside line or intercom station.
5. If the next conference party is an outside line and a busy or wrong number is 
encountered, press one of the conference parties on hold. This drops the busy or wrong 
number party. Press the conference button again and repeat step 4.
6. When last party answers, press the CONF button twice. (All parties are connected.)
To exit a Conference (controller only) perform ONE of the following:
1 -- Press the ON/OFF button to ON, press MUTE, then replace the handset (to monitor a 
conference).
To exit a multi-line conference in progress:
