telephone is busy.

Call Forward and voice mail
If you want a voice mail system to pick up unanswered calls:
• if you program Fwd No Answer and Fwd Busy, use the internal number of your voice mail as
the destination.
• if your voice messaging system or service automatically retrieves calls, make the ring delay
greater than the delay used by your voice mail system.
• if the voice mail system is on a remote system, ensure that the correct destination codes are
added to the voice mail forwarding dial string.
• if calls are being forwarded to telephones or voice mail outside the system, ensure that Allow
redirect is selected for the telephones.
To use Call Forward at the telephone
1 Get the DN (internal), or the destination code and telephone number (external private
network), for the destination telephone.
2 Enter FEATURE 4.
3 Enter the dial string of the telephone to which you want your calls transferred.
Cancel feature: FEATURE #4
To block user access
You can block the user from using the call forward feature by setting the Set Lock for the
telephone to Full. (Configuration > Telephony > Sets > Active Sets > Restrictions tab > Set
Lock drop-down list).
Camp-on
Use this feature to reroute an answered call to another telephone, and to park the call at the other
telephone if all lines to the telephone are busy. The target telephone displays a message, indicating
a camped call, and a tone occurs. When a line becomes available, the call is uncamped and
transferred to the available line.
Note: If the call forward destination is external, ensure the DN has
Allow Redirect enabled.
