Group PickUp: Allows you to answer a call on a phone that is outside your call pickup group by:
•
Using a group pickup number (provided by your system administrator).
•
Dialing the number of the ringing phone.
•
Other PickUp: Allows you to answer a call ringing on another phone within in your call pickup group
or in an associated call pickup group.
Your system administrator sets up your call pickup group and your call pickup softkeys, depending on your
call-handling needs and work environment.
You can also monitor and pick up ringing calls using Line Status indicators if your system administrator has
set up Line Status indicators on speed-dial buttons for you. Line Status indicators allow you to see if a line
that is associated with a speed-dial button is idle, in-use, in a Do Not Disturb state, or ringing.
