Pickup Group Extensions - AT&T PARTNER Plus Installation And Programming Manual

Pickup Group
Extensions
Y can answer calls to the
OU
Pickup Group with one touch by
programming it on a button. See
p. 4-12.
Code: #501
Description: Identifies the extensions in the Pickup Group-the group of
extensions whose outside calls can be answered by any extension on the sys-
tem. When an outside call rings at an extension in the Pickup Group, any other
extension on the system can answer the ringing line by pressing [ Intercom ] [ 6 ] [ 6 ] .
The system automatically connects the call to the extension, even though the
extension may not be in the group and may not have that line assigned to it.
The Pickup Group feature is useful when an extension needs to answer calls on
lines not assigned to that phone. For example, during lunch, one person may
be designated to answer all calls that come into the Pickup Group.
Valid Entries: 1 = Assigned (extension is in the Pickup Group)
2 = Not assigned (extension is not in the Pickup Group)
Considerations: The system can have only one Pickup Group.
