Description

Allows you to enter a specific prefix string (depending on what is

 

available on your server), that the phone automatically dials when

 

dialing the Directed Call Pickup number.

 

For example, for Broadsoft servers, you can enter a value of *98 for the

 

directed call pickup prefix”. When the phone performs the Directed

 

Call Pickup after pressing a BLF or BLF/List softkey, the phone

 

pre-pends the *98 value to the designated extension of the BLF or BLF/

 

List softkey when dialing out.

 

Notes:

 

 

1. The default method for the phone to use is Directed Call Pickup over

 

BLF if the server provides applicable information. If the Directed Call

 

Pickup over BLF information is missing in the messages to the server,

 

the Directed Call Pickup by Prefix method is used if a value for the prefix

 

code exists in the configuration.

 

2. You can define only one prefix at a time for the entire BLF/List.

 

3. The phone that picks up displays the prefix code + the extension

 

number (for example, *981234 where prefix key = *98, extension =

 

1234).

 

 

4. Symbol characters are allowed (for example “*”).
