Group Calling

!
WARNING:
To prevent toll fraud, it is recommend that a tandem pool should not be used
for Remote Call Forwarding.
Group Calling
Private networked trunks cannot be programmed to ring into calling groups,
because tandem trunks are dial-in facilities.
When calling group extensions are included in the non-local dial plan, calls to non-
local calling groups are made just as calls to other non-local dial plan extensions
are, using the calling groups' extensions. Calls can be transferred to non-local
calling groups. If the transfer is completed while listening to a Delay
Announcement message, the announcement will not play again.
All members of a calling group must be connected to the same local system.Direct
Inward Dialing (DID) or PRI dial-plan routed calls can be routed across a network
to calling groups.
Calls-in-Queue Alarm buttons and alerts as well as delay announcement devices
work only for calling groups on the local system. PRI and tie trunks in a private
network are affected by Queue Control. Queue Control will send a busy signal if
all lines set for Queue Control are exceeded.
Hands Free Answer on Intercom
(HFAI)
Hands Free Answer on Intercom (HFAI) button does not work for calls from non-
local dial plan extensions.

HotLine

A HotLine extension must be on the local system. However, a HotLine telephone
can dial a non-local extension number.

Labeling

For incoming calls, the alphanumeric label and/or extension number for non-local
dial plan extensions appears on local system MLX displays according to display
preference programming. This feature works only when PRI tandem trunks
convey the calls.
