Attendant Operation
Once another 874 phone has enabled its delayed ring, the attendant phone
will receive those calls. All the 874 features work in the same manner as
described in the beginning of this manual.
The attendant phone can pick up other Centrex lines through Centrex
switching. The attendant can store the Centrex pickup codes and the seven-
digit phone number of each station, except for the attendant phone, into
memory locations.

This feature allows other 874 telephones’ calls to ring at the attendant phone.
After a specified ring delay, the calls will ring at the attendant phone. For a
10-second delay before the calls ring at the attendant phone, enter 1 0.
