NEW TELEPHONE PORT FUNCTIONS
===============================
This firmware release for the IX67 comes with US call progress tones and the
following extended telephone functions for the FXS port:
- Call Waiting (DTMF and GUI enable/disable, Caller ID type 2 can also be
enabled in GUI).
- Call Hold/Alternation.
- Call Transfer (blind and attended).
- 3-way Conference.
In the Advanced Telephone Port GUI you can enable/disable:
- Call Waiting (on by default)
- Display Caller ID during Call Waiting (Caller ID2, off by default)
You can just use flash hook to invoke most functions, but get much better
flexibility by using the #n commands (which works independed of how you
reached a two-calls state).
3-way calling:
- Place the first call, wait for an answer
- Hook-flash, listen for 2nd dialtone
- Dial second call, wait for an answer
- Hook-flash to bind the calls (R)
Call waiting:
- You are on the phone
- You hear the call-waiting alert
- Hook-flash back and forth between the calls (R)
Call transfer (attended):
- You have received an incoming call
- Hook-flash, listen for 2nd dialtone
- Dial second call, wait for an answer
- Hook-flash to transfer the call (R) (disonnecting myself)
IN ADDITION - independently how you got two calls going - you can always
use:
- #0 hangup waiting or parked call
- #1 hangup active call (connect waiting or parked)
- #2 alternate beweeb the two calls
- #3 connect to 3-way onference
- #4 or #90 transfer current call to the other (disconnect yourself) (=attended_transfer)
These keystrokes are of course much more general and gives you more
flexibility. Use either - you don't have to select in advance!
To do Blind Call transfer, simply:
- You have a call
- Hook-flash, listen for 2nd dialtone
- Dial second call using prefix #90, i.e. #90 (disonnecting
myself)
