Auto Dial When you turn on Do Not Disturb, the green LEDs next to all Auto Dial
buttons programmed with your extension go on.
Barge-In Barge-In overrides Do Not Disturb.
Callback Calls to a user with Do Not Disturb on are not eligible for callback
queuing. If the callback originator is using Do Not Disturb, the system
overrides the feature; the telephone rings when the busy extension or
line/trunk is available.
Caller ID Caller ID information is not displayed if the user turns on Do Not Disturb. If
the user turns on Do Not Disturb while receiving Caller ID information,
that information remains on the display.
Camp-On A Camp-On call does not ring when the destination extension has Do Not
Disturb turned on.
Coverage When a sender turns on Do Not Disturb, calls go to Individual and/or
Group Coverage receivers. Individual and/or Group Coverage calls are
not sent to a receiver with Do Not Disturb turned on. If a sender and all
receivers have Do Not Disturb turned on, the call is not sent to coverage
and the caller hears a busy tone.
When a sender turns on Do Not Disturb, any receivers for that sender can
call the sender.
In Release 2.1 and later systems, calls received on personal lines with Do
Not Disturb on go immediately to coverage, instead of waiting for the
Coverage Delay Interval.
Digital Data Calls Digital communications devices can activate Do Not Disturb by dialing the
virtual button number (for example,
) of the Do Not Disturb button. Do
Not Disturb can be activated by video systems that have the ability to dial
strings and feature codes beginning with #.
A Do Not Disturb button should be programmed at an MLX passive-bus
telephone, and the feature should be activated during 2B video calls.
Otherwise, voice calls ring and flash at the MLX telephone during 2B data
calls, although they cannot be answered.
The use of a Do Not Disturb button at a passive-bus MLX telephone
allows voice calls to be covered while 2B video calls are in progress.
Direct Station
Selector
In Release 2.0 and later systems, an operator can check the status of an
extension whose red LED is on by using the Inspct button to determine
whether the extension is busy or using Do Not Disturb. If the user at the
extension is using Do Not Disturb, the Do Not Disturb message is also
posted and appears on the operator’s display. (However, the message
may also mean that the user has posted the message without turning on
the Do Not Disturb feature.)
