A-1 Attendant Camp-On with Tone Indication
General Description
This feature permits the Attendant, when a desired station is busy, to hold an incoming call in a special
waiting mode. The Attendant sends a distinctive Camp-On Tone Indication to the busy station. When that
station becomes idle, it is automatically rung and connected to the waiting trunk party upon answering.
