Enhanced Calls-in-Queue Alarm Thresholds
0
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.

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.
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:
Threshold 2 to a middle value, and Threshold 1 to the lowest value. A

A DSS (Direct Station Selector) button that is used as a
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.

An external alert only signals when the number of calls in the queue meets or
exceeds the programmed Threshold 3 value.

MLX-5 and MLX-5D Telephones
0
The MLX-5 nondisplay and MLX-5D display telephones are compatible with all
system releases. The display telephone includes a 2-line by 24-character display,
and both telephones come with 5 line buttons. In systems prior to Release 5.0, the
MLX-5 and MLX-5D telephones are treated as MLX-10 and MLX-10D telephones
respectively. As of Release 5.0, the system recognizes the MLX-5 and MLX-5D
telephones as 5-button telephones.
