Outgoing call process
To place outgoing calls, users can either pick up the handset on the telephone or
press the line key. For a detailed description of the outgoing call process, refer to
the sample illustrations beginning on page 14.
Incoming call process
When someone places a call through the host PBX to a Meridian Digital
Telephone IP Adapter unit, the RLC connects to the remote unit. The host PBX
then completes the call normally. If the RLC cannot establish a connection, the
call rings until the host PBX forwards the call to voice mail. Refer to Chapter 6,
“Using the digital telephone”, for a more detailed description of the incoming
call process.
Host-controlled call mode
When you place a call to someone at the host site, or when someone from the
host site calls you, the call is in host-controlled call mode. Calls in host-
controlled mode are routed through the host PBX. Refer to the sample
illustrations beginning on page 14.
