4 Hang up when you are finished.
Use the Call Pickup feature to answer a call that is ringing on another
telephone.
There are two types of call pickup:
Directed Call Pickup — Allows you to answer a call ringing on the
■
telephone of a specific user. Both you and the other user must be
members of the same Directed Call Pickup group. Each Directed Call
Pickup group is assigned a security code by the administrator. You
must enter this security code when using Directed Call Pickup to
answer a call.
Group Call Pickup — Allows you to answer a call ringing on the
■
telephone of any user who is a member of a configured Group Call
Pickup group. A Group Call Pickup group is a collection of phones that
allow each member of the group to answer another member's calls.
Your administrator can also configure a Group Call Pickup group that
allows non-group members to answer a call ringing on a telephone in
the group.
If your telephone is part of a bridged extension, see
Bridged Line Calls
