≥
.
When a call is on hold, its indicator flashes on all telephones
that have access to the line. The call can be retrieved from any
of these telephones.
On the 7000 and 7100 digital phones and Digital Mobility
phones use the hold button, or the equivalent, to alternate
between two lines. One line is active, the other is on hold.
These telephones cannot retrieve a call placed on hold by
another telephone.
Retrieving a held call
You can connect to a call on hold by pressing the flashing line
button of the held call.
On 7000 and 7100 digital phones and Digital Mobility phones,
use the hold feature to toggle between to active calls.
On Digital Mobility phones, if the active call is disconnected,
the call on hold will ring at the handset. If the handset moves
out of radio range, external active and held calls will transfer
to the prime set for that telephone, but internal calls will be
dropped.
Tip -
Answered Hunt Group calls can be placed on hold at the
