External Diversion Options

This allows you to decide if External callers or External and internal Callers to your extension are
diverted externally if you have set an external divert. It also allows extensions to be prohibited
from activating an external diversion.

trunk calls.
If both internal and external calls are to be diverted select 'All calls'.
If external calls only are to be diverted select 'External calls only'

Operation with a parent PABX

You can connect the BT Versatility to a parent PABX via its Line interfaces.
You can programme any of the eleven Outgoing Groups to work with a parent PABX. When
programming the Outgoing Groups as PABX groups, PABX access digits and the number of digits
in a PABX extension number are entered. The PABX access digits are the digits that must be
dialled to select an exchange Line in the parent PABX. (You can have a maximum of three PABX
access digits).
If you wish to make an external call via the parent PABX, you must select a line connected to the
PABX, placing the access digit(s) before the external number you require. If you wish to make a
call to a parent PABX extension, you must select a Line connected to the PABX and dial the
extension number without any access digit(s).
Note: The system will take the access digits into account in deciding whether the extension is
restricted from making the call according to its Class of Service, that is, an extension prevented
from making external calls will be also prevented from making external calls through the parent
PABX.
Both external numbers and PABX extension numbers may be entered into Personal and System
Speed Dial lists. When a speed dial number is selected for dialling, the system checks whether
the number is a PABX extension by checking the number of digits against the programmed
extension number length. If it is a PABX extension the system selects a PABX Group and if a Line
is free dials the digits. If the selected number is an external number, the system attempts to
select an exchange Line. If one is available, it dials the number without inserting the access
digits. If an exchange Line is not available a free PABX Line is selected and the access digits are
automatically inserted.
If Redial is activated the number is redialled on the same group on which the original call was
made.
