System Planning 555-670-112
4 Features
Group-Assigned Features
Group Coverage
In Group Coverage, senders are organized into groups, and calls received by any
member of the group are sent to a receiver.
Any type of telephone (excluding QCCs) can be a member of a coverage group;
however, no individual sender can be a member of more than one group. A
maximum of 32 coverage groups can be set up, and there is no limit to the
number of senders in each group. Three types of receivers can be programmed:
calling groups, or the QCC queue and/or multiline telephones.
NOTE:
Group Coverage can be used alone or can be set up to work with either
primary or secondary Individual Coverage, or both. This allows callers to
get personal attention from the primary and/or secondary Individual
Coverage receiver and backup from Group Coverage. For example, a
receiver such as a secretary can have a Primary Cover button to provide
Individual Coverage for a sender who is also a member of a coverage
group.
