Answering Calls

There are several different types of incoming calls including internal calls, external calls and recalls.

Internal calls

You receive internal calls from other users within the communications platform. When you receive an internal call, your phone rings with a single-tone sequence and the internal party's station number or name is displayed on your screen.

Step by Step

If internal repdial keys/DSS keys are configured on your optiPoint Attendant, you can also accept a call from a party who is assigned to this internal repdial key/DSS key by pressing the key.

The LED on the internal repdial key/DSS key displays
the following operating states:

LED off:

LED illuminated:
The internal party is busy.

LED flashing rapidly:

To accept an internal call:

Lift the handset.
