Basic Operation
Split Calls
You can temporarily disconnect from a call, make a call to another person, and
then connect the two people together. You must always
split
a call in order to
transfer an incoming call to a guest room or to an outside number. Splitting
allows you to do the following:
Either talk with the second person to announce the waiting call, or drop
out of the call before the second person answers.
Connect the two calls together.
Join the calling and called parties in a 3-way connection from which you
can later drop out.
Return to the split calling person if the called person does not answer or
does not want to accept the call.
This feature is automatically activated after you answer an incoming call, if you
do any of the following:
Dial a room number using the DXS Selector Console.
Press the button, and then dial a number (for example, a room
number, a trunk access code, or the Automatic Route Selection feature
access code).
Press a trunk group select button.
