Multiline functions Multiline operation is an optional feature of the 4400 system.
It means that you have more than one line on your extension.
Several of the programmable keys may be used as line keys,
to make and receive calls.
One option allows you to have more than one number which
may be used to call your extension. Alternatively, your
extension may have one number but several lines.
Whether your extension is programmed with one or a
combination of the above options, you are able to deal with
several calls at the same time.
Manager / Secretary Screening
One of the major features of multiline operation is manager /
secretary screening. Manager / secretary screening is the
specific configuration of at least two multiline extensions.
This feature allows a secretary to screen some or all of a
manager’s calls.
Manager / secretary screening may only be defined by your
system administrator. For further advice on how your
extension has been set up contact this person.
