S-ICX-50-200 S-ICX (International) issued October 2000 47
Benefits:
• Provides a way to allocate telephone expenses (outgoing calls) to specific clients/
departments as a cost accounting tool.
• Doesn’t limit the expense allocation by phone; the Account Codes are specific to the
phone users, not to the phones.
• Displays the entered Account Code on the phone’s LCD, allowing the user to verify it
immediately.
• Provides record-keeping confidentiality by allowing the user to enter the Account
Code while the call is in progress, without interrupting the conversation or showing
any other indication to the outside party.
Applications:
• Customers who need to track outgoing calls so they can bill clients such as lawyers,
accountants, etc.
• Customers who allocate phone call expenses by project
ALARM RINGING
Description:
If an incoming trunk call rings unanswered for a (programmable) period of time, the call’s ringing
pattern and dB level changes automatically so users can tell which calls have been ringing
longer. You can program the pattern of the ringing. You can also enable this feature on some
trunks, and disable it on others.
Benefits:
• Users can distinguish between calls that have been ringing longer than others.
Applications:
• Noisy office environments; heavy call traffic
ALARM TONE FOR LENGTHY CALLS
Description:
If a user is on a phone call for a long time, an alarm tone sounds intermittently in the handset
receiver. This feature can be turned on/off system-wide in programming. If you turn it on, you can
also enable/disable individual phones and trunks for it, as well as programming the amount of
time before the alarm goes off.
Benefits:
• The S-ICX can automatically monitor call duration, and let users know when they’ve
been on a phone call too long.
ATTENDANT CALLING
Description:
With this feature, multiple phones can serve as Attendant consoles via a programmed Attendant
Hunt Group. When a phone user dials “0” to reach an operator, the first Attendant member phone
in the Hunt Group rings. If it continues to ring unanswered, the call goes to the next Attendant
member; and so on. Or you can program some of the members to ring simultaneously.
Up to 20 extensions can be members of the Attendant Hunt Group. You can program a different
Attendant Hunt Group to ring during Day1, Day2, and Night mode. If someone dials the
member’s actual extension number, the call won’t enter the Hunt Group.
