Programming an Extension

Pickup Groups (143)
You can classify extensions in up to 16 Pickup Groups so that an extension from one group can
answer calls that ring at other extensions in the same group.
You can also add extensions to an existing Pickup Group.
Call Groups (CG) (113)
This setting groups extensions in Call Groups (CG) that can be accessed through numbers 770
to 779. Whenever this number is dialed, every telephone in the group rings until one of them
answers.
An extension can be configured for more than one Call Group (CG).
Call Forwarding within a Call Group (CG) (222)
This feature works only on digital lines. It provides Call Forwarding for extensions belonging to
Call Groups. When a call is routed to a Call Group, it rings at all extensions at the same time.
The extension configured for Call Forwarding will ring at its destination. If the call is answered,
the other extensions in the group stop ringing. Otherwise, the call rings again until one of them
answers it.
External Call Forwarding cannot be used for an extension that belongs to a group
when "Call Deflection" (Code 228) is activated (does not work for analog lines).
In this case the system does not receive any information about the forwarded call
having been answered or not. Since the system does not have this information, it
continues to signal all other group members.
