- My company just moved from a huge castle served by a Rolm 9751 PBX
- into a small office served by a NT Norstar system. In order to retain
- our phone numbers, we moved our DID service with us. (same CO)
-
- In general, I am a highly satisfied customer of the Norstar/Startalk
- system.
-
- One little question though:
-
- Callers to our DID lines hear a brief dial-tone-like tone, followed by
- a pause, followed by a ring. Where does that dial-tone come from? Is
- this bad programming of the Norstar? CO? What is "wink start" mean?
-
- Somebody once posted an excellent description of how DID service
- works, which I lost. If anyone has that, I would greatly appreciate
- it.
-
-
- Thanks in advance.
