AT&T 7402 Telephone User Manual


 
A Quick Look at the Features
Here are brief descriptions of some features, including what each one does and how
you might want to use it. You will have the Conference, Drop, Hold, Message, Select
Button, Select Ring, Self-Test, and Transfer features. In addition, you may have
many of the other features listed here; your System Manager can advise you.
Abbreviated Dialing (AD) Allows you to store selected telephone numbers as three
or fewer digits for quick and easy dialing. Each number can be a complete or partial
telephone number, an extension number, or a trunk or feature code. There are three
possible types of lists — personal, group, and system — and you can have a total of
three lists. Numbers on a personal list are programmable by you; numbers on group
lists are programmable by the controller of the list; system lists are programmable
only by the System Manager. Use this feature as a timesaver for dialing frequently
called, lengthy, or emergency numbers. Note: Check with your System Manager
concerning what types of lists you have and how many of each.
Automatic Callback Sends you a special 3-burst ring tone indicating that a
previously busy extension is now available. Use to avoid constant redialing when you
want to speak to someone who is frequently busy on the telephone. Note: You can
use this feature only for extensions, not outside numbers.
Bridging Permits you to answer or join calls to someone else’s extension by
pressing a bridged appearance button on your voice terminal. This button can be
any call appearance labeled with another user’s primary extension number, as
assigned to you by your System Manager. Use to assist in handling calls for a
designated coworker.
Call Coverage Provides automatic redirection of certain calls to your voice
terminal for answering. (Your System Manager determines which calls will be sent
to you.) Use to answer calls for other extensions for whom you provide coverage.
Call Coverage can also automatically redirect your calls when your voice terminal is
busy, you are out of the office, or you have pressed Send All Calls.
Call Forwarding — Busy/Don´t Answer Temporarily forwards all your calls to
another extension or to the attendant if your voice terminal is busy or you do not
answer your calls within a preset number of rings. Use when you want your calls to
be forwarded to a telephone number of your choice.
Call Forwarding — Follow Me Temporarily forwards all your calls to another
extension or to an outside number, depending on your system. Use when you want
your calls to be automatically forwarded to a telephone number of your choice.
Call Park Puts a call on hold at your voice terminal, for retrieval at any extension.
Use when you need to go elsewhere to get information during a call, or whenever you
want to complete a call from a different location. Also, if the call received is for
someone else, use it to hold the call until the called party can answer from the
nearest available voice terminal.
Call Pickup Lets you answer a call at your voice terminal for another extension in
your pickup group. Use when you want to handle a call for a group member who is
absent or otherwise unable to answer. Note: You can use this feature only if you
and the called party have been assigned to the same pickup group by your System
Manager.
