Station Hunting
Description
If a called extension is busy, Station Hunting redirects the incoming call to an idle member of
the extension group. Idle extensions are automatically searched according to the programmed
type. Five hunting types are available as follows:
Circular hunting:
The extensions are searched until an idle one is found, regardless of the jack number.
Termination hunting:
The extensions are searched until reaching the extension which has the highest jack number
in the group.
Voice Mail (VM) hunting:
All the VM ports are searched until an idle one is found to permit VM Service.
Automated Attendant (AA) hunting:
All the AA ports are searched until an idle one is found to permit AA Service.
Ring Group hunting:
All the extensions in the ring group ring simultaneously.
One of the hunting types is selected for each extension group.
To leave the hunting group temporarily, use the Log-Out function.
To re-join, use the Log-In function.
Conditions
• If all the searched extensions are busy, a busy tone is sent to the caller.
• If the called extension has set Do Not Disturb, Call Forwarding or Log-Out, Station Hunting
skips the extension.
