Verified Account Codes  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Extensions with the Verified Account Codes feature enabled are restricted  
from making outside calls without the user first entering a valid Account  
Code. After a valid Account Code is entered, the Toll Restriction Service  
(TRS) type assigned to the code is substituted for the extension TRS type,  
thus temporarily allowing calls based on the new TRS type.  
Extensions with the Verified Account Codes feature disabled can place  
outside calls based on the TRS type assigned to the extension. If a user wishes  
to place a call that would normally be restricted at the extension, the user can

System Features  
Auto Day Mode  
• The digits used for the answer signal code are determined by the  
requirements of the voice mail system.  
• If the called extension does not answer and is forwarded to voice mail, the  
DBS 824 sends a call forward ID code back to the voice mail system.  
• During transmission of the answer signal code, other DTMF digits and  
functions from the DBS 824 extension are ignored.  
Auto Day Mode  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Auto Day Mode allows the DBS 824 to go into day mode automatically.  
The DBS 824 can also be programmed to go into night mode automatically  
(see “Night Service,” page 1-25).  
If only one of the auto modes is turned on, the DAY/NIGHT1/NIGHT2  
toggle key or the DAY, NIGHT1 or NIGHT2 key is used to turn off the auto  
mode. For instance, if night mode has been activated automatically, the  
attendant must press the DAY/NIGHT1/NIGHT2 key or DAY to go into day  
mode. (Note: You must wait at least 3 minutes delay after the automatic mode  
is activated before manually changing the mode. Otherwise the system will  
immediately revert back to the automatic mode.)  
If only one of the auto modes is turned on, the DAY/NIGHT1/NIGHT2  
toggle key, NIGHT1 key, or NIGHT2 key can also be used to go into an auto  
mode before the scheduled time. If auto day and both auto night modes are  
turned on, themanual mode keys cannot be used.  
Related Programming  
• FF1 (System): Automatic Day Mode Start Time  
• FF1 (System): Automatic Night Mode Start Time  
• FF1 (System): Automatic Night2 Mode Start Time  
Considerations  
• If both auto modes are set, the starting times must differ by at least one  
hour.

Auto Set Relocation  
System Features  
• When one auto mode is turned on, the mode cannot be reset by the DAY/  
NIGHT1/NIGHT2, NIGHT key or NIGHT2 key until 3 minutes after the  
auto mode is activated. (When both auto modes are set, the mode keys  
cannot be used.)  
• If mode keys are not assigned, the access codes #520 (DAY/NIGHT1/  
NIGHT2 toggle), #521 (Day), #522 (Night1) and #523 (Night2) can be  
used instead.  
Auto Set Relocation  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Auto Set Relocation can be used to relocate the program settings of one  
extension to another extension.  
Auto Set Relocation is commonly used when extension users want to trade  
work areas. For example, if Extensions “A” and “B” are going to switch  
office locations, Auto Set Relocation enables them to switch telephone  
settings without re-programming.  
Operation  
Before a phone can be relocated, it must be assigned an Auto Set Relocation  
code. See “Related Programming” for the program address used to set up the  
Auto Set Relocation Code.  
The following example illustrates how the program settings for extensions  
200 and 300 could be switched.  
To Transfer Extension Settings from 200 to 300:  
1. At extension 200, pick up the handset.  
2. Press “#10.”  
3. Dial extension number 300.  
4. Enter the four-digit auto set relocation code assigned to extension 300.  
5. Replace the handset.  
• All programmed extension features, TRS, and LCR settings from 200  
are transferred to 300.

• Extension 300 is placed out of service.  
To Reactivate Extension 300:  
1. Unplug the extension cable from 300.  
2. Reconnect the cable.  
Extension 300 assumes all extension features, TRS, and LCR settings that  
were initially assigned to 200.  
Related Programming  
• FF3 (Extension): Auto Set Relocation Code  
Considerations  
• The following types of data can be transferred using this feature:  
- TRS type settings  
- Ring settings (trunk line, remote ringing, day/night)  
- FF key data  
- Extension numbers and names  
- Absence messages  
- Call forward settings  
- Message waiting  
- All settings and data defined by programming.  
• Settings may not be transferred between extensions of different types. In  
other words, an SLT and a KTEL cannot exchange program settings.  
• Attendant 1 is excluded from this feature.

Background Music  
System Features  
Background Music  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
If your system is set up to provide Background Music, music can be played  
from the speakers of idle telephones. If a call is made to an extension  
receiving Background Music, the music stops and the phone rings.  
Background Music is also interrupted when the phone goes offhook.  
The system can also provide music-on-hold using the Background Music  
source or a separate music source. If Music-on-Hold is provided, callers  
automatically hear music when they are placed on hold. (See page 1-24 for  
more information on Music-on-Hold.)  
Operation  
To turn Background Music on:  
1. Press the ON/OFF key.  
• The phone issues intercom dial tone.  
• The ON/OFF LED lights.  
2. Dial “#53.”

Considerations  
• The music source must be purchased separately. It is not provided with the

• If a single music source is used for both music-on-hold and background  
music, the music source connects to CN6 on the front of the CPC card. If a  
separate music source is used for background music and music-on-hold,  
background music connects to the CN6 on the CPC-M card and music-on-  
hold connects to CN8 on the CPC-M card. See Installation (Section 300)  
for instructions.  
• The input impedance for the music source is 10k ohms.  
• The maximum input level is 10 dB.

Battery Backup  
System Features  
Battery Backup  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The DBS 824 uses two 12-volt batteries. The backup batteries are connected  
in a series circuit, using cables provided with the DBS 824. With maximum  
traffic, the backup batteries last up to 40 minutes. The backup batteries should  
be replaced about every 3 years.  
Call Forward ID Code for Voice Mail  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Call Forward ID Code for Voice Mail allows users to call forward to a third-  
party voice mail system. The ID Code sends the digits that are required by the  
voice mail to identify the DBS 824 extension and allow it to retrieve  
messages.  
ID Codes can be set from any key phone.  
Operation  
To set a Call Forward ID Code for Voice Mail:  
1. Press the PROG key.  
2. Press the AUTO key.  
3. Press “*.”  
4. Enter the extension number.

System Features  
Caller ID  
2. Press the AUTO key.  
3. Press “*.”  
4. Enter the extension number.  
5. Press the HOLD key.  
Considerations  
• External callers do not hear the tones sent to voice mail, but internal callers  
do.  
• The Extension Copy program (FF9 2# 1-24# 1-24##) should not be used  
to copy extension settings that include a Call Forward ID Code. Copying  
extension settings in this manner allows the copy “destination” to retrieve  
the messages of the copy “source.” For example, if you copy extension  
settings from extension 200 to extension 300, extension 300 can retrieve  
200’s messages. Extension 300 can retrieve 200’s messages because the  
Call Forward ID Code for 200 is also assigned to 300.  
Caller ID  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The DBS 824 supports Caller ID (CID), a service offered by local central  
offices, sends calling number information from the local CO to the DBS 824.  
Users who have display telephones can see CID information as incoming  
calls ring at their extension and can have access to previous calls via the call  
log feature.  
Caller ID Call Log  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The Call Log keeps a record of Caller ID calls to individual phones. The Call  
Log allows users to view Caller ID calls that have been sent to their phone.

Centrex/PBX Compatibility  
System Features  
Users can assign an FF key to flash when there are new entries in the log.  
When the user presses the key to access the log, the LED turns off.  
Call Logs can be assigned to both attendant and non-attendant extensions.  
Centrex/PBX Compatibility  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Centrex/PBX Compatibility allows the DBS 824 to be connected to centrex  
or PBX lines.  
The DBS 824 supports up to 8 access codes for dialing centrex or a PBX.

System Features  
Direct Inward System Access (DISA)  
For security reasons, one incoming DISA code may be assigned. If an  
incoming code is assigned, it must be entered as soon as the DISA trunk  
answers.  
Two outgoing DISA codes are assigned (1111 and 9999 by default). One of  
the two outgoing codes must be entered before the user dials an outgoing call.  
Operation  
To make a DISA call to an extension:  
1. Dial the DISA trunk number.  
2. Once you hear DISA tone from the DBS 824, enter the 4-digit DISA code  
(if an incoming DISA code is assigned).  
If the incoming DISA code is not assigned, proceed to the next step.  
3. Dial the extension number.  
To make a DISA call to an outside number:  
1. Dial the DISA trunk number.  
2. Once you hear DISA tone from the DBS 824, enter the 4-digit DISA code  
(if an incoming DISA code is assigned).  
If the incoming DISA code is not assigned, proceed to the next step.  
3. Dial #7 plus the 4-digit outgoing DISA code.  
Two outgoing DISA codes are assigned. Either may be used after the #7.  
4. Dial the number of the trunk group you want to use (81-86 or 9).

Station Hunting  
System Features  
Station Hunting  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Station hunting allows calls to be automatically transferred among a  
preselected group of phones.  
When a call terminates to a busy extension in a hunt group, the call  
automatically transfers to another extension in the group. If the second  
extension is busy, the call automatically transfers to another member of the  
group.  
Three types of hunt groups are available: Terminal, Distributed, and Longest  
Idle. In addition, a software-defined pilot extension number is available.  
The DBS 824 also allow calls from busy hunt groups to overflow to a transfer  
extension. The transfer extension can be the pilot of another hunt group, the  
pilot (0) of the attendant group, or a single extension number.  
Terminal Hunt Groups  
When the Terminal method is selected, a call to the hunt group will repeatedly  
search hunt group members until the Transfer Timer expires. If none of the  
members is free when the timer expires, the call is transferred to the transfer  
extension.  
Distributed Hunt Groups  
When the Distributed method is selected, calls are distributed through the  
hunt group based on which extension in the group received a call in the last  
search. The incoming call begins its search at the next available extension in  
the group and then repeatedly searches the group, in sequence, until the  
Transfer Timer expires. If none of the members is free when the timer expires,  
the call is transferred to the transfer extension.  
Longest Idle Hunt Groups  
With Longest Idle hunting, a call to the pilot number rings the extension in  
the group that has been available the longest.  
As with the other two methods, the search then continues through the Hunt  
Group until the Transfer Timer expires. If a member does not become  
available before the timer expires, the call is transferred to the transfer  
extension.

• The transfer destination of any Hunt Group can be set to the pilot number  
of the next group, the pilot number (0) of the Attendant Group, the pilot  
number of the same group, or a real extension. The transfer destination  
cannot be voice mail.  
• A Transfer Timer adjusts the transfer time between hunt groups. The  
transfer time can be set from 0 to 32 seconds. If the timer is set to 0  
seconds, CO calls will be queued at the hunt group until a member is  
available. Intercom calls will also queue.  
• Central office trunks can be set to terminate to different hunt group pilot  
numbers during day and night mode operation.  
• The Hunt Group No Answer Timer determines how long a hunt group  
member rings before the call is transferred to the next hunt group member.

Station Hunting  
System Features  
• A call arriving at the the pilot number of a hunt group will hunt to a  
member that has call forwarding set, unless call forwarding is set to an  
outside number. The following call types will hunt to a member that has  
call forwarding set:  
- Intercom calls  
- Transferred intercom calls  
- Incoming CO calls  
- Transferred CO calls  
- DISA calls  
• In order for an extension to be permanently call forwarded to the pilot  
number of a hunt group, the hunt group pilot number must be 244 or  
above. If extension 200 is assigned as the pilot number of a hunt group,  
hunting will work properly when 200 is dialed. However, permanent call  
forwarding will not work for any extension that is permanently call  
forwarded to the hunt group pilot number.

Notes:  
For TRS types 3-6, operator calls are allowed if FF7 1# 1# is set to “on.” The office code tables are used to restrict  
all 0 plus dialing; the next two digits will also be analyzed.  
For TRS types 3-6, area code and office code restrictions can be changed using “Area Code Table For TRS Types  
3-6‚” “Office Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” “Special Area Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” and “Special  
Office Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” explained in Chapter 8 of Programming (Section 400).  
For TRS types 3-6, area and office code restrictions can be further managed using “Special Area Code Table For  
TRS Types 3-6” and “Special Office Code Table For TRS Types 3-6” found in Chapter 8 of Programming (Sec-  
tion 400). Four area codes can be associated with special area code tables 1-4 (one area code per table). Within  
each of these tables, the entire range of valid office codes can be individually allowed or restricted. Thus, the Spe-  
cial Area and Office Codes work together to provide specific toll restrictions.  
The following calling restrictions are also available:  
• Station Lockout Key Code Restriction  
A key code must be entered before calling out when the Station Lockout  
feature is activated.  
• Account Code Restriction  
An Account Code must be entered before calling out.

Attendant Groups  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The DBS 824 can accommodate up to four attendant positions. The first  
attendant is fixed at port 1, extension 100. The other Attendants can be set to  
any port or extension. When there is more than one attendant in a system, you  
can create an Attendant Group with a pilot number of 0.  
When all Multi-Line keys on the first attendant phone are busy, calls are  
forwarded to the second, third, and fourth attendant phones, in that order.  
Related Programming  
• FF1 (System): Second Attendant Position  
• FF1 (System): Third Attendant Position  
• FF1 (System): Fourth Attendant Position  
• FF1 (System): Attendant Transfer Extension  
Considerations  
• If all four phones are busy, calls are transferred to a preset destination,  
which must be a real extension number. The forwarding destination cannot  
be the pilot number of a hunt group.

DSS/72  
DSS/72  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The DSS/72 is a 72-key console that can be attached to the attendant phone.  
The 72 keys of the DSS can be programmed as Direct Station Select (DSS)  
keys for internal lines. In addition to providing direct station selection, the  
DSS keys also provide busy lamp fields to assist the attendant in monitoring  
the status of extensions.  
The attendant can perform a simplified call transfer by pressing a DSS key  
while connected to an outside line. The outside line is placed on hold and the  
extension is dialed automatically.  
When the attendant is placed in the programming mode, the DSS can be used  
for inputting text names. Figure 2-1 shows which keys are pressed for text  
input.

Key Bank Hold  
Attendant Features  
Key Bank Hold  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Key bank hold allows a user on a trunk call to initiate another trunk call by  
simply pressing an FF key for another trunk. When the user presses the FF  
key, the first trunk call is automatically placed on system hold.  
In addition, the attendant can use key bank hold with DSS/BLF keys to  
provide one-touch call transfer to an extension. For example, if the attendant  
phone has a DSS/BLF key assigned for extension 200, the attendant can  
answer an incoming trunk call and then press the DSS/BLF key to  
automatically transfer the call to 200.  
If key bank hold is turned off, the user must press HOLD before accessing a  
second trunk or transferring a call.  
Related Programming  
• FF1 (System): Trunk Line Automatic Hold (Key Bank Hold)  
One-Touch VM Transfer  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Operation  
The VM key can also be used by attendants to easily transfer incoming callers  
to an extension’s voice mailbox. When a user presses a voice mail key and  
then presses a DSS/BLF key, the digits programmed for the DSS/BLF key are  
transmitted to the voice mail system.  
For example, if an attendant receives an incoming call for station 200 and the  
attendant knows that station 200 is busy because the DSS/BLF key is lit red,  
the attendant can press the VM key and then press the DSS/BLF key to  
automatically transfer the caller to 200’s voice mailbox.  
For a general description of the VM key as well as instructions on using the  
key for personal message retrieval, see “One-Touch VM Access” on page 3-

Attendant Features  
One-Touch VM Transfer  
Note: The VM key is assigned differently, depending on whether it is used  
for personal message retrieval or attendant transfer. See the following  
“Operation” section for instructions.  
Operation  
To assign a voice mail key:  
Note: You cannot program this feature if trunks are assigned to the key. First  
clear the FF assignments, then use the following procedures to assign the VM  
key.  
1. Press the ON/OFF key.  
• The phone issues intercom dial tone.  
• The ON/OFF LED lights.  
2. Press the PROG key.  
3. Press the FF key, DSS key, or One-Touch key.  
4. Press the CONF key.  
5. Press the AUTO key.  
6. Dial the voice mail extension number.  
7. If the key is for personal message retrieval, enter a password (XXX or  
AUTO 00-99) if desired. If the key is for attendant transfer to voice mail,  
do not enter a password but include any special codes (* or #, for  
example) if they are required by the voice mail system.  
Note: The length of the password and the VM extension number cannot  
exceed six digits. If the VM number and the password total more than six  
digits, assign the password to a personal or system speed dial number (00-  
99 or 000-199, 900-939).  
8. Press the HOLD key.  
Attendant Transfer to Voice Mail  
1. The attendant answers an incoming call.  
The incoming caller asks to be transferred to an extension number.  
2. The attendant checks the DSS/BLF key for the extension. If the light is  
red, the attendant presses the VM key followed by the DSS/BLF key.

One-Touch VM Transfer  
Attendant Features  
The incoming caller is transferred to the extension’s mailbox.  
Related Programming  
• FF5 (Keys): FF Key Assignment for Extensions  
• FF5 (Keys): FF Key Assignments for DSS Consoles  
Considerations  
• Once an extension is connected to voice mail, pressing a DSS/BLF key  
will transmit the extension number stored on the DSS/BLF key to the voice  
mail system, regardless of what state the DSS/BLF key is in. In other  
words, the extension number is transmitted whether the key is idle, ringing,  
or busy.  
Note: DSS/BLF keys on the DSS/72 always light red when an extension  
is active; they do not flash red when an extension is ringing, or light green  
when an extension is forwarded.  
Note: If an attendant wants one VM key for a personal mailbox and one  
for transferring to voice mail, the personal VM key must be assigned to the  
lowest-numbered FF key.  
For example, if DSS keys 60 and 61 are assigned as VM keys, key 60  
should be used for the attendant’s personal mailbox. If VM keys are  
assigned to both the phone FF keys and the DSS keys, the lowest-numbered  
FF key on the phone should be used for the attendant’s personal mailbox. If  
the personal VM key is not assigned to the lowest-numbered key, it will not  
flash to indicate VM messages.

Call Coverage Groups  
For example, if an outside call on line 1 is sent to extension 135, but  
extension 135 does not answer, the call will ring once when the call first  
comes in at the covering phone and “TRK #01> 135” will appear on the  
covering phone’s display.  
If two extensions are designated as covering phones and the first in DND, the  
second will receive the call.  
Call coverage assignments are controlled through system programming,  
rather than from individual extensions.  
For extension-controlled routing of unanswered calls, see “Call Forwarding”  
Related Programming  
• FF3 (Extension): Offhook Signal  
• FF4 (Ringing and Hunt Groups): Call Coverage Group Member Table  
Considerations  
• Up to four Call Coverage Groups can be programmed into your system. A  
Call Coverage Group can have up to two covering phones and up to six  
extensions.  
• A member of one Call Coverage Group cannot belong to another Call  
Coverage Group or to a Hunting Group.  
• A single-line telephone (SLT) can be a member of a coverage group, but it  
cannot be a covering phone.  
• Calls to an extension in DND do not cover.  
• Calls to an extension with Call Forwarding activated do not cover.  
• If the Call Forwarding feature or the Absence Message feature is activated  
for covering phone No. 1, covering phone No. 2 will “cover” the other  
extensions in the group.  
Voice intercom calls do not activate call coverage. Only tone intercom  
calls can activate call coverage.

Key Telephone Features  
Call Forwarding  
Call Forwarding--No Answer. When Call Forwarding--No Answer is  
activated, an unanswered call will ring until the Call Forward No Answer  
timer expires. When the timer expires, the unanswered call is forwarded.  
Call Forwarding--Busy. When Call Forwarding--Busy is activated, all  
incoming calls to a busy extension will be forwarded.  
Call Forwarding--Busy/No Answer. When Call Forwarding--Busy/No  
Answer feature is activated, all incoming calls to an extension that is busy or  
does not answer will be forwarded.  
Permanent Call Forwarding. Permanent call forwarding is assigned  
through system programming, rather than by the user. Permanent call  
forwarding is normally used to forward calls to a voice mail system.  
An extension user can invoke other forms of call forwarding (no answer,  
busy, all calls) to temporarily override the permanent call forwarding  
destination.  
Permanent call forwarding can be used with busy, no answer, or busy/no  
answer.  
When Permanent Call Forwarding is assigned, the DSS and/or BLF keys are  
not lit green, the DND/CF LED is off, and the second line of LCD displays do  
not display the Call Forwarding assignment.

Call Forwarding  
The following types of incoming trunk calls follow permanent call forward  
settings:  
- Direct trunk calls  
- Transferred trunk calls.  
Voice calls do not forward when Call Forwarding--No Answer is used.  
• If several calls arrive at once at an extension set for Call Forwarding-No  
Answer, all of the calls will be queued. (The timing for each call begins  
with the ringing tone.)  
• Extensions for which Call Forwarding to an external number has been set  
cannot:  
- Be in the middle of an outside call when the feature is activated.  
- Have a toll restriction setting that prohibits outside calls.  
• To forward to an outside number, the number must be pre-programmed in  
personal or system speed dialing. Forwarding to an outside number  
requires use of pooled access trunks (Dial 9, 81 - 86). However, Dial 9 is  
not available when using Least Cost Routing mode.  
• Calls can be forwarded to a third-party voice mail using the “Call Forward  
ID Code” described on page 1-12.  
• In order for an extension to be permanently call forwarded to the pilot  
number of a hunt group, the hunt group pilot number must be 244 or  
above. For example, if extension 200 is assigned as the pilot number of a  
hunt group, hunting will work properly when 200 is dialed. However,  
permanent call forwarding will not work for any extension that is  
permanently call forwarded to the hunt group pilot number.

DSS/BLF Appearances  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
When a DSS/BLF key is programmed, it automatically provides direct station  
selection and busy lamp field for the assigned extension number. If desired,  
the DSS/BLF key can also provide ring monitor.  
For example, you can set extension A as a DSS/BLF key on extension B.  
When extension A rings, the LED of the DSS/BLF key on extension B  
flashes. If extension B answers the call by pressing the DSS/BLF key, the  
LED on extension A goes off and the call remains only on the DSS/BLF key  
of extension B.  
Ringing can be set on either one or both extensions. If the extensions are not  
set for ringing, the LED of the DSS/BLF key will flash red. If the extensions  
are set for ringing, the LED will flash green.  
When extension A is in use, the LED of the DSS/BLF key on extension B will  
light red. If one extension has the Absence Message, Call Forwarding, or Do-  
Not-Disturb feature activated, the DSS/BLF key will light green.  
Operation

BLF key.  
Direct Line (DL) Appearances  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Direct Line keys for making and receiving outside line calls can be assigned  
to any one of eight CO lines. Direct Line keys have priority over Multi-Line  
keys for outgoing and incoming outside line calls.  
The LED for a Direct Line key will flash green on an incoming call if the CO  
line is set to ring. It will flash red if the CO line is not set to ring. If another  
extension answers the call, the LED on the telephone will steadily light red.

- When the phone that will be barged into is holding a trunk that does not  
appear on an FF key.  
For example, if extension 200 wants to barge into a DL that appears on  
extension 201, extension 200 cannot barge into the DL if 201 is holding a  
trunk that does not appear on an FF key.  
Multi-CO (MCO) Appearances

Note: The VM key is assigned differently, depending on whether it is used  
for personal message retrieval or attendant transfer. See the following  
“Operation” section for instructions.

do not enter a password, but include any special codes (* or #, for  
example) if they are required by the voice mail system.  
Note: If a password is used, it can be from 1 to 3 digits. If the password is  
over 3 digits long, it must be assigned to a personal or system speed dial  
number (00-99, 000-199 or 900-939).  
8. Press the HOLD key.  
To use a Voice Mail key:  
When the VM key flashes, the user presses it to connect to the mailbox.

Considerations  
• If the voice mail password is over three digits long, assign the password to  
a personal or system speed dial number (00-99, 000-199 or 900-939).  
• If you are using 2-digit dialing with a third-party voice mail, the password  
can be up to 4 digits long before it must be stored as a speed dial number.

assigned for message waiting control in order for the MSGE lamp and VM  
key to light.  
• The FF Key Copy program (FF9 3# 1-8# 1-8#) should not be used to copy  
VM keys that include passwords because the passwords as well as the  
voice mail extension number will be copied. In addition, pressing a key  
containing someone else’s password will result in an “invalid password”  
message from voice mail.

Call Forwarding--No Answer. When this feature is activated, unanswered  
calls ring until the Call Forward No Answer timer expires. When the timer  
expires, the unanswered calls are forwarded.  
Call Forwarding--Busy. When this feature is activated, all incoming calls  
to a busy extension are forwarded.  
Call Forwarding--Busy/No Answer. When this feature is activated, all  
incoming calls to an extension that is busy or does not answer are forwarded.  
Permanent Call Forwarding. Permanent call forwarding is assigned  
through system programming. Permanent call forwarding is usually used to  
forward calls to a voice mail system.  
Extension user can invoke other forms of call forwarding (no answer, busy,  
all calls) to override the permanent call forwarding destination.  
Permanent call forwarding can be used with busy, no answer, or busy/no  
answer.  
Any system speed dial number (00-89 or 000-199) or personal speed dial  
number (90-99 or 900-939) can be used to store an outside number for call  
forwarding.  
Operation  
To activate Call Forwarding:  
1. Lift the handset or press ON/OFF.

“B” is forwarded to voice mail.  
• Extensions receiving forwarded trunk calls display “CFWD NNN  
XXXXXX,” where “NNN” = the extension that forwarded the call and  
“XXXXXX” = the trunk name or number.  
Calls to an extension with DND or Absence Message turned on are treated  
differently, depending on whether they are trunk or intercom calls.  
Intercom calls receive busy tone; trunk calls are routed to the extension  
defined in permanent call forwarding.

settings:  
- Direct trunk calls

- Transferred trunk calls.  
Voice calls do not forward when Call Forwarding--No Answer is used.  
• To forward to an external number, the number must first be pre-  
programmed in personal or system speed dialing. Forwarding to an outside  
number requires the use of pooled trunks (9, 81-86). However, dial “9”  
trunk access is not available for use when Least Cost Routing is active.  
• Extensions for which Call Forwarding to an external number has been set  
cannot:  
- Be in the middle of an outside call when the feature is activated.  
- Have a toll restriction setting that prohibits outside calls.  
• Calls can be forwarded to a third-party voice mail by using the “Call  
Forward ID Code” described on page 1-12.  
• For an extension to be permanently call forwarded to the pilot number of a  
hunt group, the hunt group pilot number must be 244 or above. For  
example, if extension 200 is assigned as the pilot number of a hunt group,  
hunting will work properly when 200 is dialed. However, permanent call  
forwarding will not work for any extension that is permanently call  
forwarded to the hunt group pilot number.  
Call Hold  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The HOLD key provides either exclusive or system hold, depending on  
system programming. With Exclusive Hold, only the extension that held the  
call can retrieve it. With System Hold, another extension can retrieve the call.  
Operation  
To place a call on Hold:  
Press the HOLD key.  
To release the call:  
Press the HOLD key again.

• If there is no response to the Hold Recall tone, the tone is issued at the  
Attendant Phone. However, no tone is issued at the Attendant Phone if  
Night Mode is activated.  
• If your system has onhook transfer activated, and you have placed an  
outside call on hold and then made an Intercom Call, make sure the other  
extension presses the FLASH key or hangs up before you do. If you hang  
up before the other extension, the held outside line will be transferred to  
that extension.  
• An error tone is issued if you attempt to hold more than one call at once.  
• The DBS can provide Music-on-Hold to callers placed on hold. See  
“Music-On-Hold” (page 1-24) for more information.  
Call Park  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
You can use the Call Park function to transfer a call, even if you cannot locate  
the intended recipient of the call. Simply park the call and then page the  
person to whom you want to transfer the call. That person can answer the call  
from any extension by dialing the number of the extension that parked the  
call.

• A Camp-on request will only be accepted after Call Waiting status.  
• Camp-on cannot be activated by an extension that has call forwarding  
turned on.  
• An extension can only have one call camped on at a time. For example, if  
Extension 152 camps on to Extension 153, another extension cannot camp  
on to 153, as long as 152 is camped on.  
• An extension that has initiated a camp-on cannot receive a camp-on. For  
instance, if Extension 200 has camped on to Extension 300, another  
extension cannot camp on to 200.  
• For CPC-S and CPC-M, callbacks are not forwarded. For example, if  
Extension 200 is call forwarded to Extension 300, Extension 200 can  
register a callback request to Extension 400. When the callback request is  
returned, it will ring Extension 200 and will not follow call forwarding.

differently, depending on whether they are trunk or intercom calls.  
Intercom calls receive busy tone; trunk calls are routed to the extension  
defined in permanent call forwarding.  
The following types of incoming trunk calls will follow permanent call  
forward settings:  
- Direct trunk calls  
- Transferred trunk calls.

Intercom Calling  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Descriptions  
The DBS 824 provides two methods of intercom calling: voice calling and  
tone calling.  
Voice Calling. With voice calling, intercom calls are connected  
immediately, without a ringing tone.  
Tone Calling. With tone calls, a ringing tone is sent to the called extension.  
System programming determines whether the DBS 824 uses voice or tone  
calling as a default. If voice calling is the default, dialing a “1” after the  
extension number will change the call to a tone call. If tone calling is the  
default, dialing a “1” will result in a voice call.  
Operation  
To make a Voice Call:  
1. Lift the handset.  
2. Dial the extension number.  
3. If the system default is tone calling, dial a “1.”

Call Forwarding--All Calls. When this feature is activated, all incoming  
calls to an extension are forwarded immediately.  
Call Forwarding--No Answer. When this feature is activated, an  
unanswered call rings until the Call Forward No Answer timer expires. When  
the timer expires, the unanswered call is forwarded.  
Call Forwarding--Busy. When this feature is activated, all incoming calls  
to a busy extension are forwarded to a designated extension.  
Call Forwarding--Busy/No Answer. When this feature is activated, all  
incoming calls to an extension that is off-hook or does not answer are  
forwarded to a designated extension. Similarly, if the extension is busy, the  
calls are forwarded to the designated extension.  
Permanent Call Forwarding. Permanent call forwarding is assigned  
through system programming. Permanent call forwarding is usually used to  
forward calls to a voice mail system.  
Extension users can invoke other forms of call forwarding (no answer, busy,  
all calls) to override the permanent call forwarding destination.  
Permanent call forwarding can be used with busy, no answer, or busy/no

Considerations  
• Calls can be forwarded to extensions that have call forwarding activated.  
For example, phone “A” can be forwarded to phone “B,” even if phone  
“B” is forwarded to voice mail.  
• Extensions receiving forwarded trunk calls display “CFWD NNN  
XXXXXX,” where “NNN” = the extension that forwarded the call and  
“XXXXXX” = the trunk name or number.  
• DND and Absence Messages cancel Call Forwarding.  
Calls to an extension with DND or Absence Message turned on are treated  
differently, depending on whether they are trunk or intercom calls.  
Intercom calls receive busy tone; trunk calls are routed to the extension  
defined in permanent call forwarding.  
The following types of incoming trunk calls follow permanent call forward  
settings:  
- Direct trunk calls  
- Transferred trunk calls.  
Voice calls do not forward when Call Forwarding--No Answer is used.  
• Extensions for which Call Forwarding to an external number has been set  
cannot:  
- Be in the middle of an outside call when the feature is activated.  
- Have a toll restriction setting that prohibits outside calls.  
• Calls can be forwarded to a third-party voice mail with the “Call Forward  
ID Code” described on page 1-12.  
• For an extension to be permanently call forwarded to the pilot number of a  
hunt group, the hunt group pilot number must be 244 or above. For  
example, if extension 200 is assigned as the pilot number of a hunt group,  
hunting will work properly when 200 is dialed. However, permanent call

forwarded to the hunt group pilot number.  
Call Hold  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Call Hold provides either exclusive or system hold, depending on system  
programming. With Exclusive Hold, only the extension that held the call can  
retrieve it. With System Hold, another extension can retrieve the call.  
Operation  
To place a call on Hold:  
Flash the switchhook.  
To release the call:  
Flash the switchhook again.

Considerations  
• A held call recalls if it is not retrieved before the Hold Recall Timer  
expires.  
• If there is no response to the Hold Recall, the call transfers to the Attendant  
Phone; however, no tone sounds at an Attendant Phone if Night Mode is  
activated.  
• If you flash the switchhook during a conference call, the flash is ignored.

SLT Features  
Call Park  
• If your system is set to onhook transfer, and you have placed an outside  
call on hold and then made an intercom call, make sure the other extension  
hangs up before you do. If you hang up before the other extension, the held  
outside line will be transferred to that extension.  
• The DBS 824 can provide Music-on-Hold to callers placed on hold. See  
“Music-On-Hold” (page 1-24) for more information.  
Call Park  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
Use the Call Park function to transfer an outside call when you cannot locate  
the intended recipient of the call. Park the call and then page the person to  
whom you want to transfer the call. That person can answer the call from any  
extension by dialing the number of the extension that parked the call.  
Operation  
To park an outside call:  
1. Flash the switchhook.  
2. Dial “75.”  
To retrieve a parked call:

Considerations  
• The parked call recalls if it is not retrieved before the Recall Timer expires.  
If this happens, the user that parked the call can retrieve it by picking up  
the handset. If no one retrieves the call after the Park Recall Timer expires,  
the call reverts to the attendant.  
You cannot park more than one outside line at a time.  
• The Park Recall Timer is similar to the Recall Timer, except that when the  
Park Recall Timer is set for “0” calls are automatically recalled in three  
minutes.

Considerations  
• If more than one caller is attempting to reach the ringing extension, the  
Direct Call Pickup feature will answer the call that arrives first.  
Once the call has been picked up, other extensions that attempt to pick up  
the call receive busy tone.  
You can answer incoming calls, intercom calls (both tone and voice), call  
waiting, paging, transferred calls, or recalls using the Direct Call Pickup  
feature. You cannot answer camp-on callbacks with this feature.  
Group Call Pickup  
Description  
Using the Group Call Pickup feature, you can answer calls to other extensions  
within your Paging Group (01-07) without entering the number of the ringing  
extension.

Call Transfer  
You can answer incoming calls, Intercom Tone Calling, or Intercom Voice  
Calling using the Group Call Pickup feature. You cannot answer Paging or  
Callback with this feature.  
• Group Call Pickup cannot be used to pick up a ringing phone in Paging  
Group 00. For example, if an extension is a member of Paging Groups 00  
and 06, the extension can use Group Call Pickup to answer ringing calls in  
Group 06, but not in Group 00.  
Call Transfer  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
The DBS 824 provides two call transfer methods: blind transfer and screened  
transfer.  
SLTs can transfer trunk and intercom calls.  
Blind Transfer  
Description  
Blind transfer allows the transfer of a call directly to an extension, without  
waiting for the called extension to answer.  
Operation  
1. Flash the switchhook to place the call on hold.  
2. Dial the number of the extension to which the call is to be transferred.  
3. Replace the handset before the other party answers.  
You can also replace the handset after the third party answers.  
• The third party need only pick up the handset to speak to the outside  
line.

enabled.  
You cannot transfer a call to an extension that has Do Not Disturb or  
Absence Message activated.  
You can transfer a call to an extension that has Call Forwarding activated.  
The transferred call will follow the call forwarding path of the extension it  
is transferred to.  
For example, if extension “A” is covered to extension “B,” calls that are  
transferred to extension “A” will be forwarded to extension “B.”  
• When you transfer a call to an extension that is busy or does not answer  
and does not have Call Forwarding activated, the transfer will recall your  
extension after the Transfer Recall Timer expires.  
Screened Transfer  
Description  
Using the Screened Transfer feature, you can contact a third party via an  
extension before transferring a call to that party.  
Operation  
To use Screened Transfer when your system is set for Onhook

SLT Features  
Conference Calls  
• Camp-on cannot be activated to an extension that has call forwarding  
turned on.  
• If an extension with call forwarding camps on to a busy extension, its  
camp-on reply is not forwarded.  
• An extension can only have one call camped on at a time. For example, if  
Extension 152 camps on to Extension 153, another extension cannot camp  
on to 153, as long as 152 is camped on.  
• An extension that has initiated a camp-on cannot receive a camp-on. For  
instance, if Extension 200 has camped on to Extension 300, another  
extension cannot camp on to 200.  
• Callbacks are not forwarded. For example, if Extension 200 is call  
forwarded to Extension 300, Extension 200 can register a callback request  
to Extension 400. When the callback request is returned, it rings Extension  
200 and does not follow call forwarding.

immediately, without a ringing tone.  
Tone Calling. With tone calls, a ringing tone is sent to the called extension.  
System programming determines whether the DBS 824 uses voice or tone  
calling as a default. If voice calling is the default, dialing a “1” after the  
extension number changes the call to a tone call. If tone calling is the default,  
dialing a “1” results in a voice call.  
Operation

extension sending the OHVA hangs up. The transferred call is held until  
the extension that received the OHVA completes the current call.  
• The extension interrupted by the OHVA cannot receive a Call Waiting  
message during an OHVA.  
You cannot toggle back and forth between two calls during an OHVA.  
• If you make an Offhook Voice Announcement to an SLT, the SLT user and  
the other party will hear the announcement.  
Pooled Trunk Access  
(CPC-S and CPC-M)  
Description  
The DBS 824 system is designed to accept from 4 to 8 outside lines. These  
lines can be divided into seven Pooled Trunk groups. The groups are  
numbered 9 and 81-86.  
Selecting a pooled trunk access number automatically selects a free trunk  
from the group.  
Operation  
1. Lift the handset.  
The phone issues intercom dial tone.  
2. Dial the desired trunk group number (81-86 or 9).  
3. Dial the outside number.

2.0 Features Update  
Directory Mode  
44-Series phones only  
CPC-S/M Version 2.0 and higher  
Description  
On the small-display phones, you can use the phone’s select keys (as well as other  
keys) to scroll through a directory of existing System Speed Dial (SSD) names,  
Personal Speed Dial (PSD) names, or extension names—and select one to dial. For  
example, if you can’t remember the party’s extension number or speed-dial  
number to which you want to transfer a call on hold, you can use Directory Mode  
to find the number and execute the transfer.  
Note: This feature applies to the 44-series small-display phone only (i.e., phones  
with a 2-line LCD display).  
Operation  
The select keys on the 44-series small-display phone are located next to the  
display’s 2nd line. Pressing select key 1 (“>” on the left) or select key 2 (“<“ on  
the right) will access the displayed directory.  
To use Directory Mode:  
1. Press the MODE key to turn Directory Mode on. The 2nd line of the  
LCD will display “SSD” on the left and “PSD”on the right.  
• Press the MODE key again to access the directory for extension  
names. The 2nd line of the LCD will display “EXT” on the left.  
2. Press the > select key to access the directory of existing SSD or EXT  
names; or the < select key to access the PSD directory. The 2nd line will  
show two speed-dial or extension names at a time (the first 7 characters of  
each name), beginning with the A’s.  
3. To scroll through the names (two at a time), press the # key. To  
back-scroll, press the * key.  
4. To jump to another letter in the directory, press the numeric key for it.  
For example, press the “6” key to jump to the M’s, N’s, and O’s. The M’s  
will appear first. Press “6” again to jump to the N’s, and again to jump to  
the O’s. (Note: This doesn’t work for PSD names unless the system is a  
DBS 824 CPC-M Version 2.0 or higher, which allows up to 40 PSDs.)  
• For names beginning with Q or Z, use the 1 key.  
5. When the correct speed-dial or extension name is displayed, you can  
execute the dialing of its speed-dial or extension number by pressing  
the select key that points to it (> if the name is displayed on the left; or  
< if the name is on the right).  
• Or, to exit the directory without selecting a number to dial, press the  
END key or go on-hook.

Handset Mute  
44-Series phones only  
CPC-S/M Version 2.0 or higher  
Description  
Operation  
While using the handset (not on speaker) during a phone conversation, you can  
press the MUTE key to block audio path to the other party—you can still hear  
them, but they can’t hear you. This feature is called “Handset Mute.”  
1. To turn on Handset Mute while using the handset, press the MUTE key.  
• The MUTE indicator lamp (LED next to MUTE key) will flash.  
• The handset transmitter will be muted. You will still be able to hear  
the other party, but they can’t hear you.  
2. To turn off Handset Mute, do one of the following:  
-- press the MUTE key again;  
-- press HOLD to place the call on hold;  
-- replace the handset on-hook; or  
-- press the flashing FF-key to answer another call.  
• Note: This will drop the first call unless Key Bank Hold is  
enabled (FF1 2# 1# 9#).  
• The MUTE indicator lamp will stop flashing.  
Notes  
Headset Use. The Handset Mute feature also works if you are using a headset on  
the phone to handle calls (#51 activates Headset mode).  
Speakerphone Use. The MUTE key works the same as before (mutes the  
microphone) when you are on speaker. The MUTE lamp lights steadily when the  
microphone is muted, and flashes when the handset is muted.  
Handsfree Answerback. The MUTE key enables or disables Handsfree  
Answerback the same as before. (Handsfree Answerback allows you to answer  
intercom calls on speaker, without picking up the handset. While the phone is idle,  
press the MUTE key to toggle between Handsfree Answerback On and Off. When  
the MUTE indicator lamp is unlit, Handsfree Answerback is ON. When the lamp  
is lit, Handsfree Answerback is OFF.)  
Offhook Monitoring. This feature and Handset Mute can both be ON  
simultaneously, so that both the speaker and handset transmitters are muted (but  
the speaker and handset receivers still operate). For more information about  
Offhook Monitoring, see page 11 of these Release Notes.  
Barge-Ins During Handset Mute. If another phone barges in on your call while  
Handset Mute is ON, and you change to conference talk (but not by pressing  
HOLD), Handset Mute will remain ON.  
FF-Key/One-Touch Key Restriction. Handset Mute cannot be assigned to an  
FF-key or a one-touch (soft) key.

Off-Hook Monitoring  
44-Series phones only  
CPC-S/M Version 2.0 and higher  
Description  
Off-Hook Monitoring lets you put a call on speaker while the handset is off-hook.  
You can still communicate with the outside party via the handset, but you will also  
be able to hear him on the phone’s speaker. He will only be able to hear what is  
spoken through your handset, however - audio will not be transmitted through your  
microphone.  
Operation  
1. During a handset call, press the ON/OFF key.  
• Another receiver path is established on the phone’s speaker -- you  
can now hear the outside party on the speaker as well as in the  
handset.  
Your phone’s microphone is muted so that the outside party hears  
only what is spoken through your handset. (To mute handset  
transmission, press MUTE.)  
2. To disable Off-Hook Monitor (“kill” the speaker but stay on the line  
with the outside party through the handset), press ON/OFF again.  
Separate Speaker Volumes for Internal vs. CO calls  
44-Series phones only  
CPC-S/M Version 2.0 and higher  
Description  
Operation  
Notes  
You can now establish separate speaker volumes internal (intercom) and external  
(CO) calls.  
To adjust volume levels, press the VOLUME key (s or t) during the appropriate call  
state.  
Adjusting speaker volume will affect only the speaker (i.e., not the handset), and  
vice-versa.

Operation  
The first device to go off-hook will seize the line (off-hook is either lifting the  
handset or pressing the ON/OFF key). If the analog device goes off-hook first, the  
large-display phone will be unable to dial or go off-hook.  
You can choose which device will ring by going off-hook at either the digital key  
telephone or the analog device and dialing *71. The digital key telephone display  
will reflect “Analog port RING” or “Key Tel RING”, depending on which device  
is selected - the default is “Key Tel RING”.  
You can still answer an incoming call from either device, regardless of which  
device is ringing. For example, if the analog device is ringing, you can pick up the  
call on the digital key telephone by going off-hook before the analog device does.  
Similarly, if the digital key telephone is ringing or has not answered a voice call,  
the analog device can pick up the call by going off-hook first.  
You can program the *71 ring select command into an FF key. Pressing the key  
toggles between “Analog Port RING” and “Key Tel RING”. When the analog port  
is set to ring, the FF key LED lights red. When the key telephone is set to ring, the  
LED is off.  
Notes  
Phone Restrictions  
• The Analog Adapter will work on the large-display phone only (VB-44225).  
• A dial-pulse SLT will not function on the analog port.  
• Stutter Dial Tone (indicating Call-Forwarding mode, Do-Not-Disturb mode,  
etc.) will not function on an SLT connected to the Analog Adapter.  
• An analog phone connected to the Analog Adapter cannot program or access  
speed dials.  
Incoming Calls  
You cannot program both devices to ring simultaneously.  
• The “*71” code will not work if the other device is in use.  
• The “*71” code will not work if FF3 (ExtPort)# 51# is set to “0”.  
• If set to “Analog port RING”, the large-display phone will work like an  
SLT/OPX (no page announcements, no voice calls from other extensions, etc.).  
• If the phone is in CF/DND (Call-Forward or Do Not Disturb), the phone will  
remain in CF/DND even if the ringing device is changed via the *71 code.  
• The incoming ring pattern for the analog device is the same as for the digital  
key telephone (determined by the Extension Ring Pattern in FF3 (ExtPort)# 38#  
(0-9)#). If this address is set to “0” (determined by CO), the analog device will  
automatically default to “1 second ON, 3 seconds OFF.”

CAUTION: When using the “Call Record” feature in some states it is illegal to record

to record without the consent of one party. These laws do not make the Call Record  
feature on a telephone system illegal. Before activating this feature, please check  
applicable state and federal laws.  
CPC-M Version 3.1 adds support for the “Call Record” feature available with PanaVOICEVoice  
Mail systems. In addition, several quality improvements are incorporated in Version 3.1.  
Thoroughly review this appendix when using the DBS 824 to make sure you understand the  
enhancements provided with this software release.  
Call Record  
Requires PanaVOICE equipped with Software Version 2.1 (Q32136) or later.  
Description  
The call record feature allows a user to record a trunk conversation at the press of  
preassigned Call Record FF key. The conversation is saved to the user’s voice  
mail box.  
Operation  
To record a trunk call:  
To record a trunk call, press the Call Record key. The LED flashes while the  
connection to the Voice Mail recording port is being established. This may take  
a few seconds. When recording begins, the LED lights solid, “Recording”  
appears on the display, and the audio message “Recording” is heard by both  
parties.  
If call record cannot be established (no voice mail port available, no conference  
circuit available, etc.), the LED extinguishes and a double splash tone is emits.  
Recording continues until you hang up, you press the Call Record key again, or  
PanaVOICE stops recording due to a PanaVOICE time-out, lack of space, etc.  
In the event PanaVOICE stops recording during a conversation, a beep tone is  
emitted, the LED extinguishes and “Recording” disappears from the display.  
If the outside party hangs up first, you may continue recording call follow-up  
information.  
To retrieve a records:  
Once the call recording is complete, the recording is stored in your voice mail  
box as a new voice mail message.

3.1 Features Update  
Appendix C  
PanaVOICE treats the recording message just as it would any other new  
message (lights the message waiting LED, displays MSG on your telephone,  
provides off site message notification, etc.).  
Retrieve the call recording just as you would any other new voice mail  
message. (If you are unclear on how to retrieve messages, contact your  
PanaVOICE system administrator.)  
Notes  
• Recording a call requires a conference circuit. If no conference circuit is  
available, PanaVOICE cannot record the conversation. Systems equipped with  
CPC-M provides 3 conference circuits.  
• Since a conference circuit is used, when the call being recorded is placed on  
hold the other party will continue to be recorded and will not hear  
music-on-hold.  
• The call record feature is not designed to support multiple-party conversations.  
Once recording a call, do not attempt to add other parties. If you need to  
conference in additional parties, first stop the recording by pressing the Call  
Record key and then initiate the conference. If you are in a multiple party  
conversation, do not attempt to record the conversation.  
• Calls that are in call record mode cannot be transferred. First, stop the recording  
by pressing the Call Record key, then transfer the call.  
• Call recording may be stopped and restarted multiple times in a conversation by  
pressing the Call Record key. However, every time call recording is stopped,  
the recording is saved as a separate message.  
• When the system is in the process of establishing a call recording connection,  
barge-in cannot be performed. However, once recording begins, a barge-in is  
possible but not recommended. If a barge-in does occur, when the party that  
barges-in disconnects call recording may be automatically terminated.  
Extension (intercom) calls cannot be recorded. The other party must be a trunk  
call (including network trunk calls).  
• A trunk call must be in progress for the call to be recorded. You cannot initiate  
a call record before connection is made.
