Automatic Redial

If you call an external number and receive busy tone or get no answer, you can instruct the system to automatically redial the number until it is available.

Note:

This feature could be restricted. Ask the system administrator for the availability.

This function is activated via Function keys, so you first have to program a programmable key (one key required per number). See section Program a function. You can activate Automatic Redial on up to five external numbers at the same time.
