Job aid: Line redirection notes
This feature enables you to send your external calls to a telephone outside the office. You can
decide to redirect all, or just some, of your external lines.
You can redirect only lines that appear as line buttons on your telephone. Since 7000 and 7100
telephones do not have line buttons, they do not support line redirection. Also, line redirection is
not supported on telephones connected to an ATA2 or ASM/GASM (analog station modules).
You can answer the telephone if it rings while you are programming line redirection. However,
call handling features are not available until the programming wait period times out. If you need to
use a feature to process the call, quit line redirection programming by pressing FEATURE. If you
press RELEASE, the call is disconnected.
In some conditions, callers can experience lower volume levels when you redirect calls to an
external location.
DPNSS notes (UK only)
DPNSS lines connected to an Embark switch, perform call redirection using the Call Forward
feature. The feature creates a tandem link back to the switch.
Warning: Be careful about redirection loops. For example, if you redirect your
lines to your branch office, and your branch office redirects its lines to you, you
can create a redirection loop. If these calls are long distance, significant toll
charges can result.
Warning: While programming Line Redirection, there is no indication of calls to
that telephone, except a call that rings the telephone.
