Making Calls
Your Attendant P attendant console allows you to initiate internal and external calls. When placing an external outgoing call, you also have the option of setting it up as a personal call. Such calls are specially marked during call charge evaluation so that they can be billed separately.

Outgoing external calls can automatically be identified by the length of the number to be dialed. If the number exceeds a certain length, the external code is prefixed automatically. For the programming of the minimum length, please consult your service technician.
