Individual Coverage is not recommended for 2B data calls. Because a
coverage receiver can have only one Cover button for each coverage
sender, only a 1B data call arrives at the receiver. The second call of a 2B
call continues to ring at the coverage sender.
Coverage delays do not apply to data calls. Calls ring immediately.
Coverage is not recommended for video extensions. However, an MLX
passive-bus telephone can be covered during 2B video calls (when both
B-channels are busy), but it must have a programmed Do Not Disturb
button. The user at the telephone activates Do Not Disturb during 2B
calls.
A passive-bus MLX telephone can be a coverage receiver, but this gives
the user little control when B-channels must be available for 2B data.
If you program a CTI link for an extension that is already programmed for
2B data, the 2B data programming is no longer functional. The 2B data
programming should be removed from the extension.
Digital communications devices and videoconferencing systems cannot
make use of Extension, Personal, or System Directories.
Digital communications devices can activate Do Not Disturb by dialing the
virtual button number (for example
Not Disturb can be activated by video systems that have the ability to dial
strings and feature codes that begin with #.
A Do Not Disturb button should be programmed at MLX passive-bus
telephones, and the feature should be activated during 2B video calls.
Otherwise, voice calls ring and flash at the MLX telephone during 2B data
calls, although they cannot be answered.
The use of Do Not Disturb at a passive-bus MLX telephone allows voice
calls to be covered while 2B video calls are in progress.
Digital communications devices can forward calls by dialing the
associated feature code.
Forward can be activated by video systems that have the ability to dial
strings and feature codes that begin with #. 2B data calls are forwarded
as two 1B data calls.
Remote Call Forwarding features are not available at video system
extensions.
Lines intended for data calls should not be mixed in the same calling
group with lines intended for voice calls.
Video systems can connect only with 1B data connections (provided that
the video application supports 1B data) when receiving a call through a
calling group (called a Data Hunt Group when used for data calls),
because a calling group dispenses only one call to each calling group
member.
