A broadcast cannot be bridged (see Enabling Bridged Extensions for information
about bridging).
If you are sending or receiving a broadcast message, you can drop the broadcast by
using the speaker button to disconnect the broadcast, by picking up and replacing the
handle, or by pressing the Release button.
Broadcasting a Group
You can view the broadcast groups, the group extensions, and the members of those
groups by accessing the VCX User Interface (see Accessing the VCX User Interface).
To broadcast a group:
1 Pick up the handset.
2 Dial the appropriate broadcast group extension.
When you dial the broadcast 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.
Call Pickup
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. 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 Call Pickup group. A 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 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.
