Barge-In

If a co-worker is on the phone or using Do Not Disturb, you
can use Barge-In to reach that person in an emergency or if
you have special instructions to interrupt. When the extension
is busy, you hear a tone and Barge-In connects you to the
call; if your co-worker is using Do Not Disturb, his or her
telephone rings. A Barge-In button must be programmed by
your system manager. For telephones which have forwarded
their calls by using Coverage, Forward, or Follow Me, you
hear the telephone ringing at the extension which you dialed.
You cannot use Barge-In on the following:
A conference call if the conference already has the
maximum number of participants.
Telephones that have Privacy in use. (You hear a fast
busy signal.)
Telephones that are being programmed. (You hear a
ringing.)
Telephones which are in the process of dialing. (You
hear a fast busy signal.)
