Call Forwarding - NEC SL1000 Features And Specifications Manual

ISSUE 2.0
Description
Call Forwarding permits an extension user to redirect their calls to another extension or an off-premise
number. Call Forwarding ensures that the user's calls are covered when they are away from their work
area. The types of Call Forwarding are:
• Call Forwarding when Busy or Unanswered
Calls to the extension forward when busy or unanswered.
• Call Forwarding Immediate
All calls forward immediately to the destination, and only the destination rings.
• Call Forwarding - Centrex
When using PBX/Centrex trunks, calls to extension perform a Centrex transfer using Immediate,
Busy and No Answer Forwarding.
• Call Forwarding with both Ringing
All calls forward immediately to the destination, and both the destination and the forwarded
extension ring (not for Voice Mail).
• Call Forwarding when Unanswered
Calls forward only if they are unanswered (Ring No Answer).
• Call Forwarding Follow Me
Refer to Call Forwarding with Follow Me on page 1-75
• Personal Answering Machine Emulation
Allows the extension to emulate an answering machine. Refer to SL1000/SL1100 InMail for more
information.
Call Forwarding reroutes calls ringing an extension, including calls transferred from another extension.
Call Forwarding can also be split, allowing internal and external calls to forward to different
destinations. The extension user can enable Call Forwarding from their telephone. An extension user
can also set the forwarding for another extension by using Call Forward for any Extension to
Destination. To redirect calls while a user is at another telephone, use Call Forwarding with Follow Me.
A periodic VRS announcement can remind users that their calls are forwarded.
