1.2.2.4 Queuing Feature
Description
When a preprogrammed number of extensions in an incoming call distribution group are busy, additional
incoming calls can wait in a queue. The number of calls which can wait in the queue is programmable.
While calls are waiting in the queue, the calls are handled by the Queuing Time Table, which can be assigned
for each time mode (day/lunch/break/night) (® 2.2.4 Time Service). This PBX supports a specified number
of Queuing Time Tables which each have a specified number of sequences (specific commands which are
performed when a caller enters a queue). The following commands can be assigned to each sequence when
making a Queuing Time Table:
[Command Table]
Command
Description Condition
OGM xx An outgoing message is sent to the
caller. "xx" applies to the OGM
number.

be sent and the next event in the

for b (01-16) ´ 5 seconds.
If an OGM has not been sent to the
caller, the caller hears a ringback
tone.

caller, the caller hears Music on
