Pickup Dialling
Description
Allows an extension user to make an outgoing call by going off-hook, if the user has previously
stored the telephone number. This feature is also known as Hot Line.
Conditions
• A rotary dial telephone without the # button cannot program this feature. For programming
the phone number, replace a rotary dial telephone to the telephone with the # button
temporarily.
• The user uses a feature number to enable or disable pickup dialling.
• If the feature is enabled and the user goes off-hook, dial tone is generated for the waiting
time and then dialling starts. During the waiting time the user can dial another party,
overriding the Pickup Dialling function.
• If the user answers an incoming call or retrieves a call on hold, the Pickup Dialling feature
does not work.
• If there is a new message which is not yet replayed, the Pickup Dialling feature does not
work.
• The Pickup Dialling feature does not work when the remaining recording time of the Built-
in Voice Message resource is less than 5 minutes and Voice Msg Full is displayed.
