Direct Line Pickup—Idle Line (I8LL)

Direct Line Pickup—Idle Line (I8LL)

Description

This feature allows users to access a specific outside line (where LL is a system line number) when the line is not in use. This feature is useful for accessing a line that is not assigned to the phone.

Related Features

■If a line is in use, users cannot access it with this feature (they hear busy tone). For information about accessing a ringing or held call, or joining a call in progress, see Direct Line Pickup—Active Line .

■If Line Access Restriction (#302) or pool Access Restriction (#315) is set to No Access or In Only for a line assigned to an extension or lines within a pool, a user at the restricted extension hears busy tone if Direct Line Pickup is used to access that line to place a call.

Considerations

■This procedure applies to individual lines. If you have a pooled extension and you want to access lines in pools that are not assigned to your extension, dial the pool access code at intercom dial tone.

■You can program a Direct Line Pickup—Idle Line button on a system phone to pick up a line by pressing the button then dialing the two-digit line number.
