How this Feature Works when Directed Call Pickup is Disabled with BLF or BLF/List
1. Phone A monitors Phone B via BLF/List.
2. Phone C calls Phone B; Phone B rings
3. If you press the BLF/List softkey on Phone A, it performs a speeddial to Phone B.
4. Phone C and Phone A are ringing Phone B on separate lines (if available).
Notes:
1. The default method for the phone to use is Directed Call Pickup over BLF if the
server provides applicable information. If the Directed Call Pickup over BLF
information is missing in the messages to the server, the Directed Call Pickup by
Prefix method is used if a value for the prefix code exists in the configuration.
2. You can define only one prefix, which will be applicable to all BLF- or
BLF/List-monitored extensions.
3. The phone that picks up displays the prefix code + the extension number (for
example, *981234 where prefix key = *98, extension = 1234).
You can enable/disable "Directed Call Pickup" using the configuration files or the Mitel Web UI.
Note: The "Directed Call Pickup" feature is disabled by default.
