If the Wakeup Activation via Tone is enabled, the auto wakeup interface
from the Speech Synthesizer circuit pack is disabled. The Do Not Disturb
interface still operates.
Do Not Disturb
Do Not Disturb allows guests, attendants, and authorized front-desk phone users
(those with console permission) to request that no calls, other than priority calls,
terminate at a particular extension until a specified time. At the specified time, the
system automatically deactivates the feature and allows calls to terminate
normally at the extension.
Do Not Disturb is a form of termination restriction associated with an automatic
deactivate time. When Do Not Disturb is active, the user receives only those calls
associated with Automatic Callback, Automatic Wakeup, and Priority Calling,
and those calls that are redirected to that extension via the Call Coverage and Call
Forwarding All Calls. All other calls redirect to a recorded announcement, an
attendant, or intercept tone. You can administer the switch to provide a special dial
tone whenever an analog set goes off-hook when Do Not Disturb is active.
Phone users with touch-tone dialing can activate this feature themselves or ask the
front desk to do it for them. Users with rotary-dial phones must call the attendant
or front-desk user to request Do Not Disturb.
Activation by phone users
Phone users can activate Do Not Disturb by dial access or by button access. If
users have a speech-synthesizer circuit pack, they can activate Do Not Disturb
themselves, without attendant assistance.
■ Dial Access
When a user dials a Do Not Disturb FAC, the system prompts the user to
enter a deactivate time. The user may later change or delete the request by
dialing the Do Not Disturb FAC again and entering the required
information.
If the user makes invalid entries or if system conditions prevent entry of the
request, the system informs the user to dial the attendant or front desk for
assistance, if the user has a speech-synthesizer circuit pack.
■ Button Access
If a phone has a Do Not Disturb button, the user can press the button to
activate the feature. The handset may be on-hook or off-hook. The user
presses the button a second time to deactivate the feature.
