Call Forwarding/Call Follow-Me
(F11,XX,XX)
Description
This feature forwards all intercom, outside, or transferred calls from a user’s
extension to another system extension (where XX is an extension number from
10–57). Users can activate this feature from their own extension (Call
Forwarding) or from any other extension in the system (Call Follow-Me).
Related Features
If an extension in a Hunt Group (#505) activates CalI Forwarding, the
system considers the extension unavailable when a call goes to the Hunt
Group.
If an extension has VMS Cover and Call Forwarding active, calls ring at the
destination extension; they are not covered by the voice messaging system.
Considerations
You can forward outside, intercom, and transferred calls, but not group calls
or calls to doorphone alert extensions. Calls cannot be forwarded outside
the system.
The phone at the extension from which calls are being forwarded beeps
once each time a call is forwarded (unless Do Not Disturb is active).
Do not forward your calls to any of the extensions in Hunt Group 7, which
contains the extensions associated with the voice messaging system.
You can program Call Forwarding on a button on a system phone. Use a
button with lights if you want a visual indication when your calls are
forwarded. When the green light is on, your calls are forwarded; when the
green light is off, calls ring at your extension.
If the Call Forwarding feature code and optional originating and destination
extensions are programmed on a button with lights, you can use the button
to turn Call Forwarding on and off with one touch. (The lights show when
Call Forwarding is on, even if calls are forwarded to a different extension
than the one stored on the button, and you can still use the button to turn
Call Forwarding off.)
