Activation by phone users

Last Updated : Sep 29, 2023 |

Phone users can activate Do Not Disturb by dial access or by button access.

Dial Access

When a user dials a Do Not Disturb FAC, the system prompts the user to enter a deactivate time. The user may later change or delete the request by dialing the Do Not Disturb FAC again and entering the required information.

If the user makes invalid entries or if system conditions prevent entry of the request, the system informs the user to dial the attendant or front desk for assistance.

Button Access

If a phone has a Do Not Disturb button, the user can press the button to activate the feature. The handset may be on-hook or off-hook. The user presses the button a second time to deactivate the feature.

The lamp associated with the Do Not Disturb button lights until the feature is deactivated with the button. An automatic-deactivate time is not provided.
