cannot use Camp-On.
Feature Interactions 3
Call Waiting A user with no buttons available to receive a transferred call hears the
call-waiting tone when a caller uses Camp-On to transfer a call, even if
Call Waiting is not activated.
Coverage All individual and/or Group Coverage points must be busy before a call
can be camped on to a coverage sender’s extension. Coverage calls
answered by a receiver can be camped-on to another user.
Digital Data Calls Data and video calls cannot be camped on.
Direct Station
Selector
When Camp-On is used to complete a transfer and the call returns, the
DSS button for the extension to which the call has been transferred goes
off and does not flash as it does for a transfer return or Park return.
Display After Camp-On is activated, the display on an MLX display telephone
shows
&DPS2Q and the caller’s extension label.
Do Not Disturb A Camp-On call does not ring when Do Not Disturb is activated.
Forward and
Follow Me
Camp-On cannot be used to complete a transfer to an extension that has
any type of Remote Call Forwarding turned on.
Group Calling A user can transfer a call to a calling group by using Camp-On, but the
call does not return to the originating extension, even if it is not answered
within the programmed Camp-On return interval.
HotLine HotLine (Release 5.0 and later systems) calls can be camped onto but a
HotLine extension cannot camp on to calls.
Line Request Returning Camp-On calls cancel Line Request.
Music On Hold When Camp-On completes the transfer of an outside call, the waiting
caller hears either Music On Hold or ringing, depending on the Transfer
Audible setting.
Paging Camp-On cannot be used for calls to busy speakerphone paging groups.
SMDR If an incoming call is camped on but not picked up by the called
extension, the extension of the user who activated Camp-On is shown in
the
671 (station, that is, extension) field of the SMDR report. If an
incoming call is camped on and picked up by the destination extension,
the destination extension is shown in the
671 field.
System Access/
Intercom Buttons
A user can pick up a camped-on call by using an idle SA Originate Only
button or an idle SA button.
Transfer You can complete a transfer by using the Camp-On feature, whether or
not the destination extension is busy. With Camp-On, the Camp-On return
interval is used instead of the transfer return interval. If a user wishing to
transfer a call to an outside number activates Camp-On, the call to the
outside number is disconnected. The original call, waiting for transfer,
remains on hold.
