1.1 General Features
Feature Manual 25
• When a call is forwarded, the corresponding message waiting indication is not forwarded. The
MESSAGE button light or Message/Ringer Lamp turns on only at the originally called extension (
1.1.82 Message Waiting).
• It is programmable whether the calls received on outside (CO) lines programmed as "Normal" ( [414-
416] CO Line Mode—Day/Night/Lunch) are forwarded for each extension or not ( [963] Call
Forwarding Selection). If FWD is enabled for an extension whose FWD destination is a VPS or
Telephone Answering Machine (TAM) and the extension has been assigned to ring with other
extensions, the VPS or TAM may answer the call before other extensions can answer it. To prevent this,
disable FWD.
• A call can only be automatically forwarded one time. In the example below, extension A's calls are being
forwarded to extension B. If extension B tries to set FWD to extension C, the extension B user hears a
reorder tone and the setting is denied. If extension B has already set FWD to extension C, and
extension A tries to set FWD to extension B, the setting is also denied.
• The destination of an extension's forwarded calls can call or transfer calls to the original extension.
• No Answer Time
The length of time before calls are forwarded is programmable ( [202] Call Forwarding Start Time).
