Transferring Calls

Transferring Calls
Description
This section explains how to transfer calls using the
phone or the switchhook on a standard phone. Transferring a call lets users
"pass" a call from one extension to another. Users can transfer both outside calls
and intercom calls to other extensions.
Related Features
To transfer calls to an extension with a single touch, you can program the
extension number on an Auto Dial button—see Auto Dialing.
To transfer calls to an extension for which you have a Manual Signaling
button, press
While a call is being transferred, the caller hears ringing if Ring on
Transfer (#119) is Active. If it is Not Active and Music-on-Hold (#602) is
Active and an audio source is connected to the system, the caller hears
music-on-hold while the call is being transferred to the destination
extension. If Music-on-Hold is Not Active and Ring on Transfer (#119) is
Not Active, the caller hears silence.
The system is factory-set to return a transferred call, after it rings four times
at the destination extension, to the extension that transferred it. You can
use Transfer Return Rings (#105) to change the number of rings for all
system extensions. You can use Transfer Return Extension (#306) to
program a different extension to which unanswered calls from a particular
extension should return.
If users transfer a call, Caller ID information (if it is available) is passed to
the destination extension.
If you have a voice messaging system, you can use Voice Mailbox
Transfer to transfer a caller directly to a subscriber's voice mailbox.
An extension programmed with Call Waiting (#316) cannot transfer either
of two active calls.
This feature cannot be used with Record-a-Call (F24), Call Screening
(F25) and Voice Interrupt on Busy (#312).
