Example 1, Extension monitoring and call pick-up

This feature makes it possible to pick up a call ringing on another extension registered at the same
registrar, for example when the other extension is busy or when the user is absent. The prerequisites
for this function are:
◦
It must be supported by the PBX.
◦
The extensions must permit this function. Setting: Phone's web interface > Configuration
Identity (1-12) > SIP tab > "Allow incoming extension monitoring". The default is on.
◦
Restricting permission to groups of users by setting an ID: Phone's web interface >
Configuration Identity (1-12) > SIP tab > "Extension monitoring group ID": Enter an ID (any
character string) into the textfield.
Note: The first character of the ID must not be a '{' curly brace.
◦
The extension to be monitored must be programmed onto one of the freely programmable
function keys with LEDs. In our example we are monitoring extension 7899 on key P1.
1. On the phone's web interface, click on Function Keys in the menu on the left.
2. Under Context of P1, select "Active" or one of the configured identities from the drop-down list.
3. Under Type of P1, select "Extension" from the drop-down list.
4. In the Number text field of P1, enter the phone number whose calls you want to pick up. In our
example it is 7899.
5. Optional: In the Short Text text field of P1, enter a name or descriptive text.
6. Click on Apply and Save.
For an example of the extension setting on the phone, see the example setting on page 69, Fig. 1-7.
The LED of key P1 on the phone will now flash red quickly when a call is ringing on 7899. If the call is
not answered, you can pick it up by pressing key P1. When 7899 is engaged in a call, the key will glow
red steadily.
