Auto Dial A Signal button and an Auto Dial button cannot be programmed for the
same extension. If a user tries to program one of these buttons while the
other is already programmed, the feature being programmed erases the
previously programmed feature.
Conference Signal and Notify can be used during a conference call.
Digital Data Calls Signaling can be activated by video systems that have the ability to dial
strings and feature codes beginning with #.
A Notify signal can be received at a passive-bus MLX telephone, even
when a 2B data or voice call is active.
Direct Station
Selector
If a user presses a Signal button programmed with a system operator’s
extension while making a call to the system operator, the LED next to the
operator’s DSS button changes from flashing to steady while the Signal
button is held down.
Do Not Disturb Signal cannot be used when the destination telephone user activates Do
Not Disturb.
Group Calling A Signal button cannot be programmed for a calling group.
Messaging If a display telephone user presses a Signal button only to send an
audible signal with a posted message to a telephone, the posted
message is not shown on the display at the destination. However, if a
display telephone user selects an SA or ICOM button, lifts the handset,
and
then
uses the Signal button to dial the extension, the posted
message is shown at the destination telephone.
Multi-Function
Module
When set for supplemental alert adapter operation, an MFM can receive a
signal but cannot send one. An MFM cannot receive a signal when set for
tip/ring operation.
Privacy Users can program and use the Signal and Notify features to signal
co-workers who have activated Privacy.
Service Observing In Release 6.1 and later systems, a Service Observer can manually
signal an extension that is being observed. Likewise, the observed
extension can manually signal the observing extension. The signal is a
separate call from the observed call.
Transfer A Signal button can be used to dial the extension during a transfer after
the Transfer button and either an SA or ICOM button is pressed. Signal
buttons cannot be used to initiate one-touch Transfer.
UDP Features In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), Signal/Notify
features do not function across a private network.
