The attendant of a telephone system is typically the first person to answer an incoming call and usually directs incoming calls to the proper person or department within the system. In addition to call control, the attendant controls system-wide operating features such as night transfer (of ringing) and the system clock. Additionally, the attendant is responsible for programming such items as system speed dial numbers and LCD messages that are available to many of the system users. The system provides two fixed attendant positions at default (stations 1 and 2, intercom 1001 and 1002); however, installers can assign any or all stations (up to 96 total) as attendant stations if they wish. Installers can also assign up to four DSS/BLF consoles to each attendant position where needed. In addition to the many installer- enabled feature buttons that the system can make available at any station, the system provides the attendant position with several special purpose installer-enabled feature buttons to enhance call processing. These special purpose buttons are described in Chapter 8. The system also provides capabilities for either a local stand-alone system or a system-to-system network. System-to-system networking connects several DXP, DXP Plus, FXS, FXT, and FXII systems together in an arrangement that allows unified communications through the system. For a complete list of features and their properties, see Appendix E, Feature Networking Support. Notes 1. GETTING STARTED Congratulations and thank you for using a Comdial telephone system!

When using your speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther from you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips to consider include: • For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and face the speakerphone. • Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment. • Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges.
