Executone IDS M18 Phone: Holding & Retrieving Calls
With the Executone IDS M18 phone, any call can be placed on Hold at an extension. If an outside line call is placed on Hold, anyone with access to that outside line can retrieve the call from Hold. If an outside line call is placed on Exclusive Hold, the call can only be retrieved by the extension that placed the call on Hold.
Note: Only outside line calls can be placed on Exclusive Hold.
If the call placed on Hold is not retrieved in the set Hold Recall Time, the call rings the extension which placed it on hold. If the call remains unanswered, it recalls to the operator.
Note: If the HOLD key LED is blinking someone has left you a message.
