Direct Station Selection (DSS) Buttons (Hotline)
This optional feature enables you to use a '66 button to connect directly to another
station’s [PDN]. The DSS LED shows the status (idle/busy) of the station and/or the
station’s [PDN]. For example, a station’s DSS button LED shows busy (light steady
red) when the station is:
♦ busy on a call on any button or is in the DND mode.
♦ idle but all appearances of the station’s [PDN] are in use by other stations.

Do Not Disturb (DND)
If your station is in the DND mode, internal, external and transferred calls do not ring
your station and OCA calls are denied. You can continue to make calls while in the
DND mode.
If your [PDN] or [PhDN] appears on other stations, calls to your [PDN] or [PhDN]
flash on your station and flash or ring the other stations. This enables your calls to be
answered at the other stations (or yours), even while your station is in the DND mode.
Your “alert partner” telephone can override DND and signal your telephone by
pressing
$OHUW6LJQDO. Telephones with DND Override can also call and mute ring
your telephone.
