4.6.4 Call Interruptions
4.6.4.1 Hold
The Hold function maintains the state of a call while suspending the conversation. Calls
that you place on hold remain associated with your extension; you can only resume your
held calls from your extension.
When you place a caller on hold and hang up, the telephone rings once after 10 seconds
notifying you that a call is on hold. If the first reminder is ignored, the phone rings on a 60-
second interval until the call is connected or disconnected.
Call cells for calls that you place on hold remain on the Active Call Area of the main
window. The call state indicates that the call is on hold and lists the hold period. Figure 4-
18 displays a call cell of a call on hold.
