Personal Lines
Pickup
Pools
Recall/Timed Flash
Reminder Service
Assigning a sender as the principal user of a personal line specifies
that the calls received on the personal line are sent to the principal
user's individual and group receivers. A principal user with Remote
Call Forwarding on can forward calls received on the personal line
to an outside number. Calls received on personal line buttons
programmed for No Ring or on senders' extensions other than the
principal user's are not eligible for coverage.
If no principal user is assigned and the personal line is shared by
other senders, calls received on the personal line are sent to all
available Individual Coverage receivers for all senders sharing the
line and to the Group Coverage receivers programmed for the
sender with the lowest logical ID.
In Release 2.1 and later systems, a call answered on a personal line
using a Cover button can be picked up by anyone with a button for
that personal line. The picked-up call, however, cannot be
transferred because it is still considered to be on hold at the other
extension.
Prior to Release 2.1, once a person answers a call received on a
personal line on a Cover button and puts the call on hold, the sender
and any other user who shares the personal line cannot pick up the
call by pressing the personal line button. For proper handling, the
receiver should transfer the call to the sender.
In Release 2.1 and later systems, calls received on personal lines
with Do Not Disturb on go immediately to coverage instead of
waiting for the Coverage Delay Interval.
A coverage sender or receiver can be a member of a Pickup group.
This allows Pickup to be used to answer a ringing Individual or
Group Coverage call. If a sender who is a member of a Pickup
group uses Coverage Off to stop calls from going to Individual or
Group Coverage receivers, his or her calls can be picked up by
using the Individual Pickup feature. Calls cannot be picked up,
however, by using the Group Pickup feature. When a coverage call
is answered using Pickup, the call is removed from other extensions
in the coverage arrangement.
Calls received on a sender's Pool button programmed for Immediate
or Delay Ring are eligible for Individual or Group Coverage.
Recall has no effect on a call answered on any Cover button.
In Release 2.0 and later systems, Recall can be used on a Group
Coverage call answered by a member of a calling group. In Release
1.0 and 1.1 systems, Recall cannot be used on a call of this type
because it is answered on an SA or ICOM button.
Reminder calls are not eligible for Individual or Group Coverage.
