Direct Station Selection (DSS)

Using Direct Station Selection

If you have your DSS Keys enabled and leave your default Prime Line programming intact, your line keys automatically change to DSS keys when you lift the handset.
You may prefer to use the Call Coverage Keys or Hotline features instead. Remember, in addition to providing one-button Intercom access and Transfer, Call Coverage Keys also provide call pickup capability.

Lift the handset.
Press INTERCOM.
1. Your DSS keys show the status of the assigned extension.
Press DSS key for the co-worker you want to call.

To Transfer a call to a co-worker using a DSS key:

Place or answer an outside call.
Press INTERCOM.
1. Your DSS keys show the status of the assigned extension.

Do one of the following:
