Often-Used Features

Pickup
Pickup lets you pick up calls that are not ringing
at your phone. Using Pickup, you can answer a
parked call (see Park & Pickup, p. 23), a call
ringing at a specific extension, or a call ringing
on a specific line. If you are part of a Pickup
group, you can pick up a call ringing anywhere in
the group. Program a general Pickup button that
activates the feature or a specific Pickup button
to take a call for a group (example: Pickup
Sales) or at a specific line or extension (example:
Pickup Maria). Ask your manager if you are a
member of a Pickup group and get the Pickup
group number.

Privacy
To program:
See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 27.
Privacy prevents co-workers who share a line
with you from joining your calls. Turn the
feature on before or during a call; it remains on
until you turn it off. A call on hold is not pro-
tected by Privacy. You should program Privacy
on a button so that you will have a green light
to remind you when the feature is on.
Saved Number Dial
Must be programmed on a button. To program:
See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 27.
Use this feature to redial a busy or unavailable
number that you want to try later.
To use:
1. Before hanging up, press the programmed
Save Number Dial button.
2. Press the same type of button used to place
the call (for example, ICOM, Pool, or SA).
3. To redial, press the programmed Saved
Number Dial button.
System Speed Dial
To program:
See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 27.
You can program 3-digit System Speed Dial
codes on a button. These are the same
numbers that are available from the System
Directory (see p. 15). Dial these directly by
pressing the Feature button and dialing the
code (600–729).
Voice Announce
To program:
See Programming Buttons & Settings, p. 27.
Make voice-announced calls from ICOM
Voice or SA Voice buttons on your phone
(see Line Buttons, p. 3) or use Paging (p. 22).
The Voice Announce feature allows you to
prevent voice announcements and paging calls
from interrupting you. Instead, the calls ring.
Voice Announce is a setting that you can turn
on or off without programming a button for it.
