92CHAPTER 6: USING THE VCX USER INTERFACE

When either a primary or secondary phone user parks a call and the call park timeout value is reached (the default is 5 minutes), the parked call rings back only on the phone that parked the call. For example, if a primary phone user parks a bridged call to a Call Park extension and no one picks up the parked call, after 5 minutes the parked call rings back only on the primary phone that parked the call. The call does not ring back on a secondary phone or on any other primary login instance. When the primary phone answers the call,the status light on primary phone lights but the status lights on the bridged phones do not light.

If all lines are in use, a parked call that rings back is forwarded according to the enabled Call Forwarding setting for that phone. If Do Not Disturb is enabled, the parked call is forwarded to the call coverage point configured for that phone.

Call Pickup and Bridged Line Calls

Call Pickup (both Directed and Group) allows a user to answer a call that is ringing on another telephone.

For bridged calls, you enter the Call Pickup feature code (455 for Directed; 456 for Group) followed by the group security code and the extension of a primary phone. The call stops ringing on all primary and secondary phones when the call is picked up. You cannot enter the extension of a secondary phone. Doing so returns an error, and the call keeps ringing on all primary and secondary phones.

Attendant Console and Bridged Line Calls

The VCX administrator can map primary phone numbers and secondary phone numbers to buttons on a VCX 3105 Attendant Console. In this case, status lights on the Attendant Console show that the bridged line is in use for primary and secondary phones.

Hunt Groups and Bridged Line Calls

A primary or a secondary phone can belong to a hunt group.

If a primary phone is a member of a hunt group, a call coming to the hunt group rings on an SA line on the primary phone. A secondary phone cannot receive a hunt group call directed to a primary phone.

Message Waiting Indication and Bridged Line Calls

A secondary phone displays the Message Waiting Indication (MWI) of the primary phone (or phones).
