Managing your attendant consoles
This section provides an overview to the DEFINITY attendant consoles. It also 
explains how to add new consoles, remove consoles, and how to set your 
system-wide console parameters.
Overview
The attendant console is the main answering position for your organization. The 
console operator is responsible for answering incoming calls and for efficiently 
directing or “extending” calls to the appropriate phone.
The attendant console also can allow your attendants to monitor:
system problems
toll fraud abuse
traffic patterns
The number of consoles you can have in your organization varies depending on 
your DEFINITY system. For more information about your specific system 
capacity, refer to DEFINITY ECS System Description.
302 attendant consoles
DEFINITY ECS supports two types of consoles: the 302A/B and the 302C
