Call pick-up from another extension
You can pick up calls ringing on another extension, for example when the other extension is busy or
when the user is absent, by pressing a SmartLabel key on your phone (see "SmartLabels" on page
26). The prerequisites for this function are as follows:
◦
It must be supported by the PBX.
◦
The extensions whose calls you want to pick up on your own extension must permit this
function. It is possible but not required to restrict the permission for monitoring to certain
users or groups of users.
Settings: See "Example 1, Extension monitoring and call pick-up" on page 58.
◦
Each extension to be monitored must be programmed onto one of the SmartLabel keys with
LEDs on the phone or onto a function key on a connected expansion module. See chapter
"Configuring the function keys", "Example 1, Extension monitoring and call pick-up" on page
58.
◦
If you want to see who is connected to or calling any of your monitored extensions, the
function must be enabled; the default setting is off. It can be turned on in admin mode only.
Open the phone's web interface click Preferences, then Phone behavior. Scroll down to Go to
call-monitor on activity and click the on/off toggle to turn the feature on.
When these prerequisites are met, the status of the monitored extension is indicated by the LED of the
function key:
◦
Blinking LED: Incoming call ringing. If the call is not answered, press the key or Answer to
pick it up;
◦
LED glowing steadily: The monitored extension is busy (in call, dialing, etc.);
.
or
if you want calls to go to the headset.
