DISA Programming
Description
Each CO can be assigned as a DISA line using 1 of the 5 DISA types available.

DISA can be programmed using Range programming.

DISA callers are subject to the Class of Service placed on the line accessed for out dialing.

A system administrator can control call duration after establishing a Trunk-to-Trunk call.

After expiration of the Conference Timer, a tone is presented to both DISA parties, then 
one minute later the system automatically releases both trunks.

The Conference Timer does not affect or control a DISA-to-Station call.
Programming Steps
1. Press FLASH and dial [40]. The following message displays:
2. Enter a valid number for the range of lines being programmed. If only one line is being 
programmed, enter that number twice (001 001).
3. Press HOLD to save the entry. A confirmation tone sounds and the display updates. 
Flexible button #19 (Page A) is lit. The following message displays to indicate current 
programming of that line or group of lines:
XXX-XXX = CO Line Range
4. Press the DISA flexible button (Button #7).

5. Enter a valid number (0-5) on the dial pad to indicate type of DISA desired.
[0] = No DISA
[1] = 24-Hour DISA
[2] = Night DISA
[3] = 24-Hour DISA with forwarding
[4] = Night DISA with forwarding
[5] = Telecenter 24-Hour DISA with forwarding (requires optional software)
6. Press HOLD to save the entry. A confirmation tone sounds and the display updates.
DEFAULT … No outside lines are assigned as DISA lines.
DISA Call Forwarding
Four options are available for a DISA line: 1) 24-hour, 2) night, 3) 24-hour with forwarding,
4) or night with forwarding. The CO line ringing at a station follows preset forward or no-
answer call forward using the preset forward timer the same as an initially ringing CO line 
does. It follows direct forward and busy forward the same as an initially ringing CO line. If the 
preset forward timer is set to 00 (disabled) the first forward of the DISA ringing call at a 
station takes 15 seconds.
DISA CO-to-CO
Description
The DISA CO-to-CO (or Conference) option on the CO line governs a DISA caller’s ability to 
access other outside lines. CO lines must have DISA CO-to-CO enabled to allow a DISA caller 
to establish an outgoing CO-to-CO connection. This allows for specific CO line access 
restriction on DISA calls. A station with Conference enabled can initiate a conference on CO 
lines regardless of the CO line conference marking.
The CO line conference flag affects a DISA caller’s ability to access outgoing CO lines as 
shown in the following table:

Features and Operation
Direct Station Selection / Busy Lamp Field
A user with Direct Station Selection (DSS) buttons assigned at their Key Station can call an 
intercom station or transfer a CO call by pressing the appropriate DSS button.
When a button on a Digital Telephone is assigned as a DSS, it also serves as a Busy Lamp Field 
(BLF) to display the status of that telephone. Refer to “Flexible Button Assignment” on 
page 2-149 for additional information.
Direct Transfer Mode
Description
An outside CO line can be transferred from one keyset to another. By using the TRANS 
button, a screened (announced) transfer can be transferred directly to the handset on any 
key station. Any number of attempts can be made to locate someone by calling different 
keysets without losing the call. If a line is transferred to a busy station, it receives muted 
ringing.
When enabled, supervised transfers (screened transfers) to stations in the handset mode 
connect calls directly to the handset. The station user must have a direct appearance of that 
CO line or a Loop button. This feature is programmed on a system-wide basis in admin 
programming.
Programming Steps
1. Press the DIRECT TRANSFER flexible button (FLASH 06, Button #7). The following 
message displays:
2. Enter a 0 or 1 on the dial pad to enable/disable this feature.
[0] = Disabled

							Directory Dial2-125
Features and Operation
Directory Dial
Description
Directory Dial enables display telephone station users to obtain a directory of station users 
and have the system dial the extension currently displayed. The STS provides locations for up 
to 200 names (000-199). Directory dial also lets users program a name with a speed dial bin 
for use in later locating a speed dial number. When prompted, the system displays the name 
associated with a speed dial number so when the desired name is shown, the user may then 
have the system dial the number.
Directory Dial allows users to associate a name with an entry in the local number/name 
translation table. When prompted, the system displays the name associated with the table so 
when the desired name is shown, the user may then have the system dial the number.
Directory Dial also includes the following functions:

The Directory Dial list may be programmed and maintained at the first assigned 
Attendant station. However, this admin routine lets the system programmer maintain the 
list locally (at Attendant) or remotely via modem access.

May be used to transfer a call from one station to another.
