By setting system programming in advance, you can pick up a call to another extension in the same extension group simply by going off-hook, even if your extension is not ringing.

If you hear a reorder tone when trying to retrieve a call from a TAM, the dialled extension is not the TAM extension, or the TAM cannot answer the call because it is performing another operation.
