Often-Used Features

Barge-InÊ

If you use this feature often, ask your system manager to program a Barge-Inbutton on your console.

If a co-worker is on the phone or using Do Not Disturb, use Barge-In to reach that person in an emergency or if you have special instructions to interrupt. When the extension is busy, you hear a tone and Barge-In connects you to the call; if your co-worker is using Do Not Disturb, his or her telephone rings.

You cannot use Barge-In on the following:

A conference call, if the conference already has the maximum number of participants. (You hear a fast busy signal.)

Telephones that have forwarded calls by using Coverage, Forward, or Follow Me. (You hear ringing at the extension you are calling.)

Telephones that have Privacy in use. (You hear a fast busy signal.)

Telephones that are being programmed. (You hear ringing at the extension you are calling.)

Telephones in the process of dialing. (You hear a fast busy signal.)

To use:

Press the programmed Barge-Inbutton,

OR

Press the Feature button and select Barge In [Barge].
