Operation Manual

Using the TELES.iTA/2TR Box

4.5 Hold and Alternate

You are conversing with one party and would like to briefly ask a third party a question, i.e.

hold for enquiry. You can put the first party on hold by pressing the R key. You will then hear

the dial tone and can now call the third party. After completing the call to the third party, you

switch back to the first party by pressing the R key again. Switch back and forth between both

parties, i.e. hold and alternate, by pressing the R key.

R key third party number

Example: You already have a party on the line and would like to consult someone at the

number 444444. You would then enter the following:

R key 444444

You can terminate a call to either party by pressing the # key twice. If one party is internal,

the other parties will be connected with each other when you hang up. If both parties are ex-

ternal, you will terminate both connections when you hang up. However, should you be call-

ing through a PBX, both external parties will be transferred to each other.

NOTE: If difficulties arise when using the R key, check the flash time settings as de-

scribed in section 6.2, page 30.
