Multiple Directory Numbers
Multiple Directory Numbers
Multiple Directory Numbers allow you to have more than one extension num-
ber. In addition to your “normal” extension number (e.g., 320), you can have
additional “virtual” extension numbers on Multiple Directory Number function
keys. For example, you can have virtual extension number 600 for your sales
calls. When a call routes to 600, it goes to your Multiple Directory Number key
assigned to virtual extension 600. In this way, you can easily tell calls to your
extension from sales-specific calls. Check with your Communications Manager
to see if you have any Multiple Directory Number keys.
Call Coverage
Use a Multiple Directory Number key assigned to a co-worker’s extension
when you need Call Coverage for their calls. The Multiple Directory Number
key shows you when your co-worker is busy and flashes slowly when they
have an incoming call. You can even press the key to intercept the incoming
call.
You can have Multiple Directory Number keys for up to three different exten-
sions and virtual extensions. Note that you must keep at least one key assigned
as a line or loop key in order to make and receive outside calls. In addition, you
and other co-workers can share the same Multiple Directory Number keys. For
example, everyone in your department could have a key for the sales virtual
extension.
Your Multiple Directory Number keys can ring or not ring. Your
Communications Manager can tell you how your keys are set up.
To answer a call ringing your Multiple Directory Number/Call
Coverage key:
1. Press TALK.
