■ Privacy — Manual Exclusion
You can’t observe an extension on which Privacy — Manual Exclusion is
active. You also can’t observe an extension while it’s on a conference call
with another extension using Privacy — Manual Exclusion.
■ Transfer
Observers cannot initiate a transfer while observing.
If a user transfers a call, the observer is placed in wait state. The observer is
bridged onto the call when the transfer is complete.

Single-Digit Dialing and Mixed
Station Numbering
Single-Digit Dialing and Mixed Station Numbering allows easy guest access to
internal hotel/motel services and provides the capability to associate room
numbers with guest-room telephones.
Detailed description
You must create a dial plan for hotel/motel services and room numbers. (See
‘‘Dial Plan Analysis Table’’ on page 748 for more information about creating a
dial plan.)
Some suggestions follow.
■ Assign a single-digit extension to internal hotel/motel services such as
room service. Assign single-digit extensions to individual-telephones or to
a group of telephones (for example, to service the front desk).
■ Assign a prefixed extension to guest rooms.
A prefixed extension is still made up of a prefix and an extension up to five
digits. The prefix identifies the call type. The switch collects dialed digits,
removes the prefix digit, and uses the extension for further processing.
