Do any square key systems permit a POTS extension (Plain Old Telephone Set)to take a call off of hold? I worked on one in the 80s that did but I've never seen one since. And I am not inquiring about Call Parking, etc. but actually taking a call that was put on hold and being able to answer it.

ESI has codes to retrieve a held call from a SLT, pick up the phone dial ** and the line that's holding. Eg; **5, and you've picked up line 5 from hold.

It's going to depend on the system. A Partner can dial 6 + the Line Number.

Nortel can't unless it's been parked, OR the SLT was setup in front of the system ON THAT GIVEN LINE.

A Norstar can pick it up but it dosnt take it off of hold. The old 1A key systems could do that but they were a mechanical swich.

X16, but it has to be wired to the CO line(s) ahead of the KSU. You probably already knew that.

If you connect a cordless or any analog phone in front of the KSU wouldn't that cause privacy issues?

Samsung allows it. I always throw in a cordless phone, connected to an SLT port, on my big residential installations so that the owner can answer, place on hold, retrieve from hold, and transfer, calls when they out at the swimming pool.

Damn Arthur, I was sure you were going to say 1A2 with a SLT modified for A-Lead control. Well, if you won't, I will. Sam
