Considerations
The held call is transferred as soon as the extension sending the OHVA
hangs up.
If the transferred call is not answered immediately, it will queue for a set
time limit, then return to the extension sending the OHVA. (The recall
time can be set in the Transfer-Recall Timer.)
When receiving an OHVA, an extension’s Talk Back key’s LED will flash
red. When the Talk Back key is pressed to answer an OHVA, the LED will
flash green.
