Setting up an Extension Port Type
Setting up a Extension port involves filling in the accompanying text and check boxes. What
follows is a description of the boxes and how that information is used by the VS1 System. Click the
Save
button in the toolbar when information has been changed or entered.
Extension port
(DP200)
Description
:
Enter a name or description for the Extension Port. When a DP200 display phone or
CTI station option user gains access to the extension, the user sees the characters entered in this text
box.
Extension
: Enter an extension for the port. If an extension is assigned to the port, then anyone from
any extension on the system, or through an Auto Attendant, can dial that extension.
Call Pick Up Group
: This option is used in conjunction with the feature keystroke of
*8
. The
*8
feature keystroke allows a user to pick up a ringing extension in a group. A group consists of
multiple extension ports with identical numbers entered in the
Call Pick Up Group
text box. This
box is set to
1
by default, but the number can be from
0
to
9
. Entering
–1
means this station option
does not use groups.
If the site environment has more than one department housed in the same area, a group can be
assigned to each department so that only those people in the same group/department have the option
of picking up calls. For example, the Sales department is set to 1 and the Service department is set to
2. When a call is ringing a Sales phone, another user in the Sales department can dial
*8
from a
Sales phone to answer the call. If a user is on a Sales phone and hears a Service phone ringing, the
user is not able to pick up that Service call by dialing
*8
.
Note
You can set up a Command Script (GRPID OFF/ON) to enable or disable Call Pick Up
Group during a specific time. For example, you could run a Command Script to turn on the
Answer Group function when the system runs the Day configuration.
