EXTENDING CALLS/RECALLS
If a call remains unanswered . . .
after you release it, the system returns it to the console after a
programmed period of time (typically 20 seconds or six rings). This is
known as a “recall”.
The display will show, for instance:
12:03 2-FEB BELL CWI
RECALL
Note: Whenever a call recalls your console because the hold timer
has expired, the corresponding hold indicator will flash and
[RECALL] is displayed. If [RECALL] is displayed without any
hold key flashing, the call is returning to your console because
the called extension did not answer.
0 Press [RECALL]
Or ANSWER
to be reconnected to the caller and reminded that it is a recall.
