2.24.3.2 Enhanced Walking Extension
Description
It is possible to use the Walking Extension feature with extensions in Service-in (functions normally) and
Service-out (cannot make trunk calls or receive calls) modes, allowing extensions and locations (i.e.,
telephones) to be utilised more efficiently. Extensions can be set to Service-out mode when the extension user
is not using the extension or to prevent calls from being made or received when no one is using the location.
The extension can then be changed to Service-in mode when the extension user wishes to use the extension.
Enhanced Walking Extension can be utilised as follows:
–
When a single extension user uses multiple telephones
Extension users can switch locations with a Service-out extension. This allows extension users to use their
settings at another location while the previous location is in service-out mode. This is ideal for when
extension users need to work at multiple locations, such as another department, branch office, or at home.
–
When multiple extension users use the same telephone
Extension users can change the service status of their Service-out extension to Service-in mode and switch
locations with another extension with a simple operation. This is ideal for when the same telephone is used
by multiple extension users who work in shifts.
Service-out mode
When an extension is in Service-out mode, the DND and Extension Lock features are set on the extension,
preventing the extension from making trunk calls and receiving calls.
[Example]
Extension settings can be used at other locations as follows:
Extn. 102
Service-out
Service-in
Extn. 101
Extn. 101
Service-out
Extn. 102
Service-out
Extn. 101
Service-in
Extn. 102
Service-out
Main Office
Branch Office

Explanation:
The extension user of extension 101 changes to Service-out mode at the main office. He then changes his
extension to Service-in mode and switches extension settings at the branch office.
Virtual Locations
Instead of assigning all extensions to telephones, it is possible to store unused extensions (i.e., Service-out
mode) on a preinstalled extension card (i.e., settings are made but no physical location is utilised). When the
extension needs to be used, the extension can switch locations and service status with an extension on a
physical location (i.e., a location with a telephone).
