Automatic Off-hook Line Selection

Automatic Off-hook Line Selection enables a station to automatically access a specific line or line
group and an internal PDN when the station user lifts the handset to place a call. The station user
does not have to press the line button or DN button for the preferred line. The Spkr button also
auto-selects the programmed line or line group and DN.
A station can be programmed to require manual selection of a line or to automatically access one
of the following when the user picks up the handset to place a call:
A specific CO/PBX line group
An intercom or DN
The lowest numbered CO/PBX line that appears on the DKT
If Automatic Off-hook Line Selection is not assigned, the user gets no dial tone and must manually
access the line or feature.
If Automatic Off-hook Line Selection for a particular station is assigned to a CO/PBX line group,
the station user gets dial tone from the last free line in that line group when the handset is lifted.
The station user can dial the telephone number without pressing a CO/PBX line button. If all lines
in the assigned group are busy, the user hears busy tone and can use the trunk queuing feature.
Assigning Automatic Off-hook Line Selection to a trunk group is a convenience to the user who
almost always makes outside calls. If Automatic Off-hook Line Selection is assigned to an
intercom or DN, the user gets internal call dial tone when the handset is lifted. The user can dial
another station without using the intercom or DN button. This is a convenience to the user who
almost always makes internal calls.
If Automatic Off-hook Line Selection is assigned to the lowest numbered CO/PBX line on the
telephone, the user gets dial tone from that specific CO line, and can dial a telephone number
without pressing the button for that line. This could be a convenience to an executive whose
private line appears on that DKT.
Note Unavailable for Off-premises Station or on a standard single-line station.
