Call Forward and Call Transfer
An external call can be forwarded or transferred from
one handset to the other. The difference between for-
ward and transfer depends on if the sending handset
needs to talk with the receiving handset before the
external call is sent to the other handset.
Call Forward
The first handset (HS1) can forward an external call
to the other handset (HS2) by pressing and holding
the INTERCOM key. HS1 will display CALL FOR-
WARDED
.
To answer the call, HS2 can press PHONE, SPEAKER
or any dial pad key.
NOTE:
If HS2 does not respond within 30 seconds, the external call
will be returned to HS1 and its display will show CALL BACK. If the returned
call is not answered within 30 seconds, the external call will end automatically.
Call Transfer
HS1 can transfer an external call to HS2, by pressing
the INTERCOM key.
NOTE:
The external call is put on hold automatically.
HS2 will ring, showing an intercom call.
Press PHONE, INTERCOM, SPEAKER or any dial pad
key on HS2 to answer the intercom call.
HS1 and HS2 can discuss the external call.
NOTE:
Press
INTERCOM
to switch back and forth between the
intercom and outside call.
Press OFF on HS1 to transfer the call. HS2 is now on
the external call. CALL TRANSFERRED will display
on HS1.
NOTE:
If there is no answer on HS2 within approximately 1.5 minutes,
HS1 will automatically reconnect to the external call.
