Directed Call Pickup (BLF Call Interception)

(480i/480i CT/9133i)

Directed call pickup is an enhancement to the existing BLF feature found in 480i/ 480i CT and 9133i. The existing BLF feature allows a softkey/programmable key to monitor the states of an extension. The extension states can be one of three states: "busy", "ringing" and "idle". If the monitored extension is in the "ringing" state with an incoming call, and "Directed call pickup" is enabled, pressing the BLF key can pick up the incoming call on the monitored extension.

Note: The Asterisk and Epygi Quadro 4x/16x IP PBX servers support this feature. For details about Asterisk support, contact Aastra Technical Support.

You can also enable or disable the playing of a short "call waiting tone" when there is an incoming call on the BLF monitored extension. If the host tone is idle, the tone plays a "ring splash".

You can enable/disable Directed Call Pickup using the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.
