Group Call Pickup
Availability: All versions.
Group Call Pickup allows an extension user to answer a call ring-
ing 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
● Transfered calls
● Direct Inward Lines
● Calls on trunks assigned to the Pickup Group
To simplify picking up calls, an extension can have Programmable Function 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.

Group Listen permits a keyset user to talk on the handset and
have their caller’s voice broadcast over the telephone speaker.

Group Listen turns off the keyset’s Handsfree microphone so the
caller does not hear the co-worker’s voices during a Group Lis-
ten. When a keyset user sets up Group Listen, they hear their caller’s voice over the telephone
speaker as well as their handset.
