Options for Outgoing Calls
An outgoing call can be initiated in two ways:
Dialling the Telephone Number
If you have already picked up the receiver before dialling, the phone number that you have entered is dialled immediately.
Dialling the Telephone Number with Dial Preparation
Dial preparation – first dialling and then picking up the receiver – makes it possible to check the phone number entered and, if necessary, to correct it before the connection is established.
Dialling the Telephone Number on Direct Exchange Line Access
If your system telephone has been configured as a direct exchange access point using the configuration manager on the PBX, you will hear an external dial a tone directly after picking up the receiver.
Initiating External Calls with Number Presentation Suppression
If you prefer that the person you are calling does not see your phone number, you can use calling line identity restriction.
