Call Transfer
Transfer calls to subs criber?
Indicate if call transfer should be turned on (Y/N). When call trans fer is
turned on for a subscriber, the voice ma il system transfers incoming calls
to the subscriber extension. The subscriber can turn call transfe r on or off
from any touchtone telephone.
If you select N, outside callers may still leave a m e ssage in the subscriber
voice mailbox, but they cannot directl y reach the subscriber extension
without going through the operat or. Select N if t he sub scriber us es voic e
mail only.
Call transfer type
Select the call transfer type that the voice mail system uses for the
subscriber. The voice mail system can transfer a call to a subscriber using
Await Answer, Release, or Wait for Ringback.
Await Answer
The voice mail system puts the caller on hold and dials the extension.
If the extension is answered within the range of specified ring s, the
voice mail system puts the caller through.
If the extension is busy or does not answer within the spe cified
number of rings, the voice mail system plays the extension greeting
and then takes an action (usually take message).
Release
The voice mail system puts the caller on hold, dials the extension a nd
then releases the call to the NEC telephone system. The voice mail
system does not check the progress of the call or the status of the
called extension. If the extension is busy or is not answered, the
caller can leave a message onl y when the telephone system
supports Call Forward to Personal G reeting.
Releasing a call to an ext ens ion c lears th e v oice ma il s yste m p ort to
take other calls. However, the subscribe r cannot hold or screen
calls.
