Talkswitch 48-CVA manual Use Same Line Connect

Use Same Line Connect

Enabling this option allows incoming calls, when forwarded to the Remote Extension, to use the same line in which the originating call came in. Using this feature allows only one line to be used when forwarding incoming calls to a Remote Extension. This feature can only be used when the line that the originating call came in on has the 3-Way Calling/Conference or Transfer service (Centrex/Plexar). If the line does not have any of these services, the call will be forwarded using the Hunt Group chosen in the “Connect using:” section.

If you have a ‘Transfer and clear’ service on your line(s) and want to have TalkSwitch clear lines after forwarding calls to Remote Extensions, you will need to enable ‘Clear telephone line after call transferred’ on the Transfer Options page under ‘Options’. If your service requires the remote end to answer the call before the transfer can be made, then you should use ‘play accept/reject prompt’ or ‘play caller’s name first’ screening option set on the ‘Answered at ext.’ in the Remote Extension section under Call Handling. Check with your telephone company if you are uncertain which setting works best for you.

Note: Remote Extensions do not have the ability to manually transfer calls when using ‘Same Line Connect’.
