In Communication Manager Release 6.2 and later, Call Pickup Alerting provides the display of calling and called party information for all members of the pickup group and administrable alerting options. This feature works on DCP, H.323, and SIP stations.

When Enhanced Call Pickup is activated, the system updates the telephone displays of all members of the pickup group when another group member receives a call. The system provides the calling and called party information, which enables a member to decide whether to pick up the call or not. If a button is configured for call pickup, anytime you press the call-pkup button, the system shows the details of the incoming call.

The following alerting options are available:

You can separately administer the time of the display and audible notifications. You must enable Call Pickup Alerting in your system.
