Pickup Group Extensions (#501)

Use this feature to assign extensions to a Pickup Group. When a call rings at an extension in a
Pickup Group, a user at any other extension in the system can answer the ringing call by dialing
the Pickup Group code. The Pickup Group feature helps when a user needs to answer calls on
lines or pools not assigned to his or her telephone. The system supports up to four Pickup
Groups.
Considerations
You can assign an extension to as many as four different Pickup Groups.
You can assign extensions where extra alerts (such as a loud bell) are installed to a Pickup
Group to enable anyone who hears the alert to answer the call.
For instructions on answering calls in a Pickup Group, see
8-45.
