Description
One or two Direct Station Selectors (DSSs) can be connected to an MLX-20L or
MLX-28D telephone assigned as an operator position. The DSS enhances the
call-handling capabilities of an operator with a Direct-Line Console (DLC) or a
QCC. When connected to an MLX-20L telephone used as a system programming
console, the DSS facilitates system programming and centralized telephone
programming procedures. When used with the Extension Status feature or by a
calling group or Call Management System (CMS) supervisor, the DSS allows a
user to determine, at a glance, calling group or CMS group member status or
room status.
The DSS provides the following call-handling capabilities or information:
■ One-touch dialing of inside extensions
■ One-touch Transfer
■ One-touch Hold (DLC only)
■ On-hook, off-hook, or Do Not Disturb status of extensions in the system
■ Extension status indication (group member or room status)
■ Calling group queue status
■ Message-waiting LED status
■ Operator park zones
