Call Pickup
You can use call pickup to answer someone else’s incoming call on your phone. The SIP-T42S IP
phone supports directed call pickup and group call pickup. Directed call pickup is used for
picking up a call that is ringing at a target phone number. Group call pickup is used for picking
up a call that is ringing at any phone number in a certain group. The pickup group should be
predefined, contact your system administrator for more information.
You can pick up an incoming call by using the DPickup/GPickup soft key. To use call pickup,
you need to configure the call pickup code beforehand on a global or per-line basis via web
user interface.
