Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing
If you are dialing a call on your phone and another call comes in while you are
dialing, you can allow the incoming call to interrupt dialing by enabling a
parameter called
Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing
. You can enable or disable
this parameter in the Packet8 Web Phone UI at the path
Basic Settings
->
Preferences
->
General
.
When you enable this field in the Packet8 Web Phone UI, an incoming call
automatically interrupts the outgoing call during dialing and allows the phone to
ring for you to answer the incoming call.
When you disable this parameter, which is the default, the phone does not
interrupt the outgoing call during dialing and instead rings the incoming call on
another free line (or sends busy signal if all remaining lines are busy). You have a
choice to ignore the incoming call, or answer the incoming call on another line,
via the
Ignore
and
Answer
softkeys that display. If you choose to answer the
incoming call, you can answer the call, finish the call, and then hang up. You can
still go back to the original outgoing call and finish dialing out.
Configuring Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing
Use the following procedures to configure
Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing
on
the IP Phone.
Note:
If you disable this field, and the phone receives an incoming call
while you are dialing an outgoing call, you can pick up the call and
perform transfer or conference as required.
Packet8 Web Phone UI
Note: Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing
is disabled by default.
