Voice Announce
A covered call remains on the sender's SA or ICOM button until it is
answered at the receiver's telephone. Once answered by a receiver,
the call is removed from the sender's SA (including Shared SA) or
ICOM button.When a calling group is programmed as a Group
Coverage receiver, however, the call is removed from the sender's
telephone as soon as it is sent from the calling group queue to an
available member.
A call received on a Shared SA button is not eligible for any
coverage.
If a receiver programs a Primary Cover, Secondary Cover, or Group
Cover button for a sender and also has an SSA button associated
with the sender, the green LEDs next to both the Cover button and
the Shared SA button flash. The red LED stays on at the Shared SA
button, but does not go on at the Cover button.
A call answered on any Cover button can be transferred.
Calls transferred to a sender are eligible for Individual and/or Group
Coverage. However, the sender hears a call-waiting tone if he or
she is using Coverage Off to prevent calls from going to coverage
and does not have an available SA or ICOM button to receive a
transferred call.
With one-touch Transfer, a call answered on a Cover button can be
transferred by using a DSS button, but not by using an Auto Dial
button.
Transfer returns are not eligible for coverage.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), non-local
UDP calls are treated as outside calls by the system and by
Selective Coverage features: Coverage Off, Coverage Inside, and
Coverage VMS Off.
In Release 6.0, calls cannot be covered by non-local extensions or
non-local calling groups.
In Release 6.1 and later (Hybrid/PBX mode only), although calls
cannot be sent directly to non-local extensions or calling groups for
coverage, they can be sent to a local calling group that has a non-
local calling group extension as its only member.
If the sender's speakerphone is available, a voice-announced call is
answered as soon as it is made. If the sender's speakerphone is in
use, the call is converted to a ringing call and sent to coverage.
