Group Call Pickup
Group Call Pickup
Description
Easily answer a call ringing your Pickup Group, even if you don't know which extension is ringing.
Group Call Pickup allows an extension user to answer a call ringing an extension in their assigned Pickup
Group. This permits co-workers in the same Pickup Group to easily answer each other's ringing calls. The
user can intercept the ringing call by dialing a code or pressing a programmed Group Call Pickup key. The
system has a maximum of eight Pickup Groups, with an unlimited number of extensions in each group.
However, an extension can be a member of only one pickup group.
Group Call Pickup can answer the following types of calls:
Ringing Intercom calls
❥
Transferred calls
❥
Direct Inward Lines
❥
Calls on lines assigned to the Pickup Group
❥
To simplify picking up calls, an extension can have Feature Keys assigned as Group Call Pickup keys. There
are three types of Group Call Pickup keys: immediate ring, no ring (lamp only), or delayed ring.
