Call Queue

The system administrator sets the number of calls that can be 
placed in a queue individually for each user group. The value can 
lie between “0” and “99”. The “0” value deactivates the ”Call 
queue” function for a user group. When the maximum number of 
calls in the queue is reached, further callers hear a busy tone.

Note:

As calling fax machines often operate with the “voice” 

service indicator (e.g. on analogue ports), you should assign ports 
for fax machines on the Forum 523/524 to a user group 

without

 

a queue. 

Queues can be combined with the “call forwarding,” “pickup” and 
“hunt group” functions, for example, in order to configure an 
enquiry station for an operator.

Activation of Queues

Queues can be activated on a per user group basis. On delivery 
the default set, for all preset groups, is 

off

.

When using queues, it often makes sense to activate call waiting 
protection. For this purpose, 

Call waiting protection

 authorisa-

tion must be allocated to the user group, and call waiting protec-
tion must be activated on the terminal.

Furthermore it is sensible to combine queues with the 

Announcer 

at busy

 function. When a caller calls a subscriber who is busy 

then they will hear a “central welcoming text”, for example, “Here 
is company XYZ. You will be immediately connected”. The function 

Announcer at busy

 can be set in the 

Telephony: Call Distribu-

tion: Incoming

 or 

Telephony: Call Distribution: 

Incoming DDI

 menu. Central welcoming texts can be recorded 

using the programme package Forum Voicemail.

You should configure a new user group (e.g. “Operators”) and 
activate the authorisations 

Call queue

Call waiting protection

 

and, if necessary, 

Call forwarding

. If users belong to this group, 

a queue will be activated automatically for all telephone numbers 
assigned to them.
