Call Waiting - NEC UX5000 Manual

Call Waiting

Description
Automated Attendant callers can wait in line (without hanging up) for a busy extension to become free.
Voice mail sends a beep to the busy extension letting them know a call is waiting. Call Waiting is only avail-
able to Subscriber Mailboxes, and only when the outside caller is routed from the Automated Attendant by a
Screened Transfer (TRF) action or by Directory Dialing. Call Waiting is beneficial if the receiving extension
doesn't want waiting callers to automatically go to their mailbox when they are unavailable. They will wait
in line to be answered instead.
