Direct Line Pickup-Idle Line (I8Ll) - Avaya PARTNER Advanced Communications System Installation And Use Manual

Direct Line Pickup—Idle Line (I8LL)
Use this feature to access a specific outside line (where LL is a system line number) when the line
is not in use. This feature is useful for accessing a line that is not assigned to the telephone.
Considerations
This procedure applies to individual lines. If you have a pooled extension and you want to
access lines in pools that are not assigned to your extension, dial the pool access code at the
intercom dial tone.
If a line is in use, you cannot access it with this feature (you hear busy tone). For information
about accessing a ringing or held call, or joining a call in progress, see
Active Line (I68LL)" on page
If Line Access Restriction or Pool Access Restriction is set to No Access or In Only for a
line assigned to an extension or lines within a pool, a user at the restricted extension hears
busy tone if Direct Line Pickup is used to access that line to place a call.
