Coverage

To program:
See 

Programming Buttons & Settings

, p. 17.

Coverage allows calls to your extension to ring
elsewhere, so that they can be handled by
someone else. If your system has voice mail,
your calls can also be covered that way. There
are three types of coverage:

Primary Coverage.

 If your calls are

covered this way, they ring immediately
at the covering phone.

Secondary Coverage.

 The covering

phone rings after a delay of 2 rings, giving
you a chance to answer first.

Group Coverage.

 Calls for a group of

people (coverage group) may be covered
by one or more people. Your system
manager can tell you how this works at
your office.

Covering phones are programmed with 

Cover

buttons used to answer calls for others. Delay
Ring on the covering phone can add a longer
delay before your calls ring there. If line
buttons on your phone are set to No Ring,
however, calls on those lines are not covered.
(See 

Rings

, p. 2.)

To control coverage of inside calls, use these
programmable settings: Coverage Inside On
allows all your inside calls to ring elsewhere;
Coverage Inside Off turns inside coverage off.
You can also program buttons for these
features:

• Use a 

Coverage VMS

 button to prevent

or allow coverage of your outside calls by
a voice mail system. These calls may still
be covered by a person at another
extension.

• Use a 

Coverage Off

 button to turn off or

on all coverage of your calls.
