Line Coverage Extension (#208)

Line Coverage Extension (#208)
Description
This feature applies only if you have a voice messaging system.
This System Programming procedure identifies an extension as the “owner” of a
specific outside line, so the extension can activate Call Coverage or VMS Cover
for that line.
Related Features
■ An extension’s “owned” line is eligible for coverage only if Line Ringing is
set to Immediate Ring or Delayed Ring and Line Access Restriction
(#302) is set to No Restriction or In Only.
■ Use Call Coverage to redirect an extension’s calls on owned lines to the
covering extension.
■ Use Call Coverage Rings (#116) or (#320) to specify the number of times
a call rings at the owner’s extension before it is sent to the covering
extension.
■ Use VMS Cover or Automatic VMS Cover (#310) to redirect the
extension’s calls on owned lines to the voice messaging system.
■ Use VMS Cover Rings (#117) or (#321) to specify the number of times a

system.
■ Users with Call Coverage or VMS Cover turned on can Send All Calls
immediately to their covering extension or their voice mailbox by activating
Do Not Disturb.

can be owned by the same extension.
■ This feature provides an alternative method of routing outside calls to the
voice messaging system for Call Answer Service.
■ This feature has no effect on the CO Line Ownership procedure in
PARTNER MAIL, PARTNER MAIL VS or PARTNER Voice Messaging PC
