Group Hunting

Your telephone can be included in one or several hunt groups. In a hunt group all members are represented with one common directory number. 16 hunt groups can be programmed, each containing 1 to 20 members. A member can be either an extension number, an operator console or a fictive number. Please ask your system administrator if you require this function.

Note:

The number of cordless extensions in a hunt group are limited to eight (including Tandem configurations).

Incoming calls to the hunt group are directed to free extensions in the group. The hunt order within the group can be changed to suit your needs. If all members of the hunt group are busy, an incoming call is being queued. If no one answers this call before the programmed time, the call is forwarded to the programmed answering position (e.g. operator).

Note:

If all members in a hunt group are busy, the Callback or Intrusion function is not available.
