Abstract

In an electronic private automatic branch exchange telephone system, busy test is carried out by way of a two step process. Initially, a junctor memory is scanned and the called number is compared with each ING and ED number contained in memory. At the completion of the scan and comparison a check of the calling bridge relay of the called number is made. Associated with the busy test arrangement are camp-on and call-waiting features which may also be carried out during the test.
