Release 5.0 Enhancements (June 1997)
The primary and secondary announcement options, when used together, allow an
initial message to play for callers, followed by a repeating announcement that, for
example, urges callers to stay on the line and wait for a calling group member.

Enhanced Calls-in-Queue Alarm Thresholds

Three Calls-in-Queue Alarm thresholds can be set to more clearly indicate the
real-time status of the calls waiting in the queue according to the behavior of
programmed Calls-in-Queue Alarm buttons. In earlier releases, only one Calls-in-
Queue Alarm Threshold setting is available to activate the LEDs at programmed
Calls-in-Queue Alarm buttons for a calling group.

Queue Alarm Threshold setting is available to activate the LEDs at programmed
Calls-in-Queue Alarm buttons for a calling group.
Using all three levels, the system manager sets Threshold 3 to the highest value,
Threshold 2 to a middle value, and Threshold 1 to the lowest value. A
Calls-in-Queue Alarm button indicates the severity of the alarm conditions in the
following ways:

Calls-in-Queue Alarm button can only indicate two threshold levels,
either by flashing or by lighting steadily. If a calling group must use
this type of Calls-in-Queue Alarm button, only two threshold levels
should be programmed.

If all three thresholds are set to the same value, the result is one threshold only
with LED state either off or on (steady). If two values are the same, then the result
is two alarm levels (flash, steady). The factory setting is one call for all three
thresholds, with LED states of off and steady.
