Call Pickup

Directed Call Pickup

You cannot camp on a page group extension.
A page cannot be bridged (see Enabling Bridged Extensions for information about
bridging).
If you are sending or receiving a page, you can drop the page by using the speaker
button to disconnect the page, by picking up and replacing the receiver, or by pressing
the Release button.
You can view the page groups, the group extensions, and the members of those groups
by accessing the VCX User Interface (see Accessing the VCX User Interface).
To page a group:
1) Pick up the handset.
2) Dial the appropriate page group extension.
When you dial the page group extension, speakers are activated on the telephones that
are members of the group.
3) Speak the message you want to broadcast into the handset.
4) Hang up when you are finished.
Use the Call Pickup feature to answer a call that is ringing on another telephone.
There are two types of call pickup:
Directed Call Pickup — Allows you to answer a call ringing on the telephone of a
specific user. Both you and the other user must be members of the same Directed
Call Pickup group. Each Directed Call Pickup group is assigned a security code by the
administrator. You must enter this security code when using Directed Call Pickup to
answer a call.
Group Call Pickup — Allows you to answer a call ringing on the telephone of any
user who is a member of a configured Group Call Pickup group. A Group Call Pickup
group is a collection of phones that allow each member of the group to answer
another member's calls. Your administrator can also configure a Group Call Pickup
group that allows non-group members to answer a call ringing on a telephone in the
group.
If your telephone is part of a bridged extension, see Call Pickup and Bridged Line
Calls for additional information.
To answer a call that is ringing on a specific user's telephone:
1) Pick up your handset.
2) Press Feature + 455.
The Display Panel prompts you to enter your group security code.
3) Enter the your group security code.
