Station Hunti ng System Features

Station Hunting

(CPC-S and CPC-M)
Station hunting allows calls to be automatically transferred among a preselected group of phones.
When a call terminates to a busy extension in a hunt group, the call automatically transfers to another extension in the group. If the second extension is busy, the call automatically transfers to another member of the group.
Three types of hunt groups are available: Terminal, Distributed, and Longest Idle. In addition, a software-defined pilot extension number is available.
The DBS 824 also allow calls from busy hunt groups to overflow to a transfer extension. The transfer extension can be the pilot of another hunt group, the pilot (0) of the attendant group, or a single extension number.
Terminal Hunt Groups
When the T erminal method is selected, a call to the hunt group will repeatedly search hunt group members until the Transfer Timer expires. If none of the members is free when the timer expires, the call is transferred to the transfer extension.
Distributed Hunt Groups
When the Distributed method is selected, calls are distributed through the hunt group based on which extension in the group received a call in the last search. The incoming call begins its search at the next available extension in the group and then repeatedly searches the group, in sequence, until the Transfer T imer expires. If none of the members is free when the timer expires, the call is transferred to the transfer extension.
Longest Idle Hunt Groups
With Longest Idle hunting, a call to the pilot number rings the extension in the group that has been available the longest.
As with the other two methods, the search then continues through the Hunt Group until the Transfer Timer expires. If a member does not become available before the timer expires, the call is transferred to the transfer extension.

Station Hunti ng System Features
• A call arriving at the the pilot number of a hunt group will hunt to a member that has call forwarding set, unless call forwarding is set to an outside number. The following call types will hunt to a member that has call forwarding set:
- Intercom calls
- Transferred intercom calls
- Incoming CO calls
- Transferred CO calls
- DISA calls
• In order for an extension to be permanently call forwarded to the pilot number of a hunt group, the hunt group pilot number must be 244 or above. If extension 200 is assigned as the pilot number of a hunt group, hunting will work properly when 200 is dialed. However, permanent call forwarding will not work for any extension that is permanently call forwarded to the hunt group pilot number.

For TRS types 3-6, operator calls are allowed if FF7 1# 1# is set to “on.” The office code tables are used to restrict all 0 plus dialing; the next two digits will also be analyzed.
For TRS types 3-6, area code and office code restrictions can be changed using “Area Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” “Office Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” “Special Area Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” and “Special Office Code Table For TRS Types 3-6‚” explained in Chapter 8 of Programming (Section 400).
For TRS types 3-6, area and office code restrictions can be further managed using “Special Area Code Table For TRS Types 3-6” and “Special Office Code Table For TRS Types 3-6” found in Chapter 8 of Programming (Sec- tion 400). Four area codes can be associated with special area code tables 1-4 (one area code per table). Within each of these tables, the entire range of valid office codes can be individually allowed or restricted. Thus, the Spe­cial Area and Office Codes work together to provide specific toll restrictions.
The following calling restrictions are also available:
• Station Lockout Key Code Restriction A key code must be entered before calling out when the Station Lockout
feature is activated.
• Account Code Restriction An Account Code must be entered before calling out.

Description
The Voice Announce Unit (VAU) is a digital answering device that can be connected to the DBS 824. It provides for the recording and playback of up to two voice messages, along with the ability to transfer incoming calls.
When a call reaches the VAU, it plays a prerecorded voice message. The caller is then allowed to dial a number or is automatically transferred to a predetermined extension.
The VAU is often used to back up operators or hunt groups. Callers overflowing from either of these positions hear a message and can then dial a number or wait to be transferred back to the operator or hunt group.
The VAU can be used to provide a variety of other services to callers, such as a menu of dialing options or transfer to an answering machine.

The DBS 824 can accommodate up to four attendant positions. The first attendant is fixed at port 1, extension 100. The other Attendants can be set to any port or extension. When there is more than one attendant in a system, you can create an Attendant Group with a pilot number of 0.
When all Multi-Line keys on the first attendant phone are busy, calls are forwarded to the second, third, and fourth attendant phones, in that order.

Considerations
• If all four phones are busy, calls are transferred to a preset destination,
which must be a real extension number. The forwarding destination cannot be the pilot number of a hunt group.

DSS/72

(CPC-S and CPC-M)
Description
The DSS/72 is a 72-key console that can be attached to the attendant phone. The 72 keys of the DSS can be programmed as Direct Station Select (DSS)
keys for internal lines. In addition to providing direct station selection, the DSS keys also provide busy lamp fields to assist the attendant in monitoring the status of extensions.
The attendant can perform a simplified call transfer by pressing a DSS key while connected to an outside line. The outside line is placed on hold and the extension is dialed automatically.
When the attendant is placed in the programming mode, the DSS can be used for inputting text names. Figure 2-1 shows which keys are pressed for text input.

Key Bank Hold Attendant Features

Key Bank Hold

(CPC-S and CPC-M)
Description
Key bank hold allows a user on a trunk call to initiate another trunk call by simply pressing an FF key for another trunk. When the user presses the FF key, the first trunk call is automatically placed on system hold.
In addition, the attendant can use key bank hold with DSS/BLF keys to provide one-touch call transfer to an extension. For example, if the attendant phone has a DSS/BLF key assigned for extension 200, the attendant can answer an incoming trunk call and then press the DSS/BLF key to automatically transfer the call to 200.
If key bank hold is turned off, the user must press second trunk or transferring a call.

Call Coverage Groups

(CPC-S and CPC-M)
Description
Call coverage is designed for office workers who almost always want their unanswered calls to be routed to the same secretary or secretaries.
Up to two extensions can be designated as covering phones (secretary).
3-8 DBS 824-3.0 /3.2-700 Revised April 2000
Key Telephone Features Call Coverage Groups
For example, if an outside call on line 1 is sent to extension 135, but extension 135 does not answer, the call will ring once when the call first comes in at the covering phone and “TRK #01> 135” will appear on the covering phone’s display.
If two extensions are designated as covering phones and the first in DND, the second will receive the call.
Call coverage assignments are controlled through system programming, rather than from individual extensions.
For extension-controlled routing of unanswered calls, see “Call Forwarding” on page 3-10.
Related Programming
• FF3 (Extension): Offhook Signal
• FF4 (Ringing and Hunt Groups): Call Coverage Group Member Table
Considerations
• Up to four Call Coverage Groups can be programmed into your system. A
Call Coverage Group can have up to two covering phones and up to six extensions.
• A member of one Call Coverage Group cannot belong to another Call
Coverage Group or to a Hunting Group.
• A single-line telephone (SLT) can be a member of a coverage group, but it
cannot be a covering phone.
• Calls to an extension in DND do not cover.
• Calls to an extension with Call Forwarding activated do not cover.
• If the Call Forwarding feature or the Absence Message feature is activated
for covering phone No. 1, covering phone No. 2 will “cover” the other extensions in the group.
• Voice intercom calls do not activate call coverage. Only tone intercom
calls can activate call coverage.

Key Telephone Features Call Forwarding
defined in permanent call forwarding. The following types of incoming trunk calls follow permanent call forward
settings:
- Direct trunk calls
- Transferred trunk calls.
• Voice calls do not forward when Call Forwarding--No Answer is used.
• If several calls arrive at once at an extension set for Call Forwarding-No
Answer, all of the calls will be queued. (The timing for each call begins with the ringing tone.)
• Extensions for which Call Forwarding to an external number has been set
cannot
- Be in the middle of an outside call when the feature is activated.
- Have a toll restriction setting that prohibits outside calls.
:
• To forward to an outside number, the number must be pre-programmed in
personal or system speed dialing. Forwarding to an outside number requires use of pooled access trunks (Dial 9, 81 - 86). However, Dial 9 is not available when using Least Cost Routing mode.
• Calls can be forwarded to a third-party voice mail using the “Call Forward
ID Code” described on page 1-12.
• In order for an extension to be permanently call forwarded to the pilot
number of a hunt group, the hunt group pilot number must be 244 or above. For example, if extension 200 is assigned as the pilot number of a hunt group, hunting will work properly when 200 is dialed. However, permanent call forwarding will not work for any extension that is permanently call forwarded to the hunt group pilot number.
