sender
) to ring at another
extension (a
receiver
) at the same time and to be answered at either extension. It
is not necessary for the sender and receiver to have shared personal lines or
Shared SA buttons. A coverage sender, whose calls are covered, can be an
individual extension (
Individual Coverage

Group
Coverage
).

either or both
of the
following ways:
■
An Individual Cover button is programmed for the sender on the multiline
telephone of a receiver.

programming. A receiver for the group is programmed in any of the
following ways:
