This section provides information about how the Loudspeaker Paging feature interacts with other features on the system. Use this information to ensure that you receive the maximum benefits of Loudspeaker Paging in any feature configuration.
Bridged Call Appearance
If a parked call includes a shared terminating extension group, a shared Personal Central Office Line (PCOL), or a redirected call with a temporary bridged appearance, the maximum number of off-hook parties on the call is five, instead of six. The sixth position is reserved for the answer-back call.
Call Coverage
If a coverage call is parked by deluxe paging, the temporary bridged appearance at the principal extension is maintained as long as the covering user remains off-hook or places the call on hold.
Call Park
If a call is parked by deluxe paging and the time-out interval expires, the call usually returns to the paging user. However, with remote access and tie trunk access, the call returns to the attendant. If unanswered, the call follows the coverage path of the paging user.
Call Pickup
If you use call pickup or directed call pickup to answer a call and then park it by deluxe paging, a temporary bridged appearance at the principal extension is maintained if you remain off-hook or place the call on hold.
Conference -Attendant and Terminal
Paging calls cannot be conferenced.
Data Call Setup
If the Data button has been pressed for modem pooling, access to paging is denied.
Data Privacy
If a call has Data Privacy activated and you park it by deluxe paging, Data Privacy for that call is automatically deactivated.
Hunt Groups
If a hunt-group member parks a call using deluxe paging, the call is parked on the member’s own extension, not the hunt-group extension. You cannot park calls on a group extension by dialing the extension as a call-park destination.
Night Service
If a night-station user parks a Night Service call with deluxe paging, the call is parked on the night station’s primary extension.
Personal Central Office Line (PCOL)
If a PCOL call is parked by deluxe paging, the temporary bridged appearance of the call is maintained at the PCOL extension until the call is disconnected.
Terminating Extension Group (TEG)
If a TEG member parks a call using deluxe paging, the call is parked on the member’s extension, not the group extension. You cannot park calls on a group extension by dialing the extension as a call-park destination.
