Using the Handoff - Push/Pull Feature
Dynamic Extension Express also includes the Handoff feature, which includes the following
functions:
Push
: The Handoff “push” function allows you to move an active call from any of your
internal associated destinations (unless that destination is a 5610 Cordless Handset or a
UC Express SIP Softphone) to an associated destination without disconnecting audio. The
push function is useful if you are leaving the work area, but want to remain connected to
an active call.
Pull
: The Handoff “pull” function allows you to pull a call that was previously routed to your
mobile or home phone back to any of your internal associated destinations (unless that
destination is a 5610 Cordless Handset or a UC Express SIP Softphone). The pull function
is useful if you answer a call on your mobile phone and then return to your desk.
To use the Dynamic Extension Express – Handoff “push” feature:
1. While on an active call at your phone, press
(Special), and then dial
388
.
HANDOFF IN PROGRESS appears on the display and the call rings all of your
associated destinations (except voice mail).
2. Answer the call at one of your associated destinations. For mobile and home phones,
press # to accept the call.
To use the Dynamic Extension Express – Handoff “pull” feature:
While on an active call on an associated destination device, lift the phone handset and
dial
388
. A confirmation tone is played and the call is pulled back to your phone.
To cancel the Dynamic Extension Express – Handoff feature:
While the handoff is in-progress, press
(Special), and then dial
388
. HANDOFF
CANCELLED appears on the display for your main extension.
NOTE
A recall occurs when a feature cannot be completed or the feature times out,
and the call returns to the originating extension. For example, a holding call
will recall the extension where it was placed on hold when the hold timer
expires.
NOTE
If you enter the handoff feature code (388) and the display shows NO CALL TO
HANDOFF, the call cannot be handed off (see
).
