P-202H Plus v2 User's Guide 13.2 Setting Up Supplemental Phone Service All Supplemental Phone Services are enabled by default except for Call Waiting, which is disabled by default but can be enabled in SMT Menu 2.1 - ISDN Advanced Setup. The Calling Line Indication, or Caller ID, also in this menu decides whether the other party can see your number when you call. If set to Enable (default), the ZyXEL Device sends the caller ID and the party you call can see your number, otherwise if set to Disable, the caller ID is blocked. 13.3 The Flash Key Flashing means to press the hook for a short period of time (a few hundred milliseconds) before releasing it. On newer telephones, there should be a "flash" key (button) that generates the signal electronically. If the flash key is not available, you can tap (press and immediately release) the hook by hand to achieve the same effect. However, using the flash key is preferred since the timing is much more precise. With manual tapping, if the duration is too long, it may be interpreted as hanging up by the ZyXEL Device. 13.4 Call Waiting ISDN Call Waiting allows you to place a call on hold while you answer another incoming call on the same telephone (directory) number. By default call waiting is enabled on both telephone ports (except France where the default is disabled), but can be toggled on either port from Menu 2.1. 13.4.1 How to Use Call Waiting The Call Waiting feature on your ISDN line works in exactly the same way as it does on a regular analog line (which almost everyone is familiar with). 13.4.1.1 Placing the Current Call on Hold To place the current call on hold and answer the incoming call, press the flash key after hearing a call waiting indicator tone. 13.4.1.2 Dropping the Current Call to Switch to an Incoming/Holding Call After hearing a Call Waiting indicator tone, simply hang up the telephone and wait for it to ring before answering the incoming/holding call. An incoming caller receives a busy signal if • You have two calls active (one active and one on hold, or both active using Three-Way Calling) already. 145 Chapter 13 Supplementary Phone Services
