Detailed Information about Call Acceptance and Announcement Assignment
Simultaneous call acceptance during a call
Important: Only available for operation on the PBXs COMpact 4000, COMpact 5000/R, COMpact 5200/R, COMpact 5500R und COMmander 6000/R/RX.
While another telephone is on a call at the same port, neither a waiting call nor simultaneous call acceptance on the answering machine is possible. When the function waiting call is enabled, the PBX reserves the second call channel of the internal S0 port - as long as it is available. At this particular time, a second telephone at the same port cannot initiate a call, accept an incoming call and pick up a call.
 
The second call is treated according to the configured call acceptance. When the function waiting call for the telephone is enabled, the call is signalled as waiting during the configured call acceptance time.
Call Type
The call type acceptance can be configured depending on the call type.
 
A
Anonymous calls (caller transmits no phone number)
B
From contact (caller transmits a phone number contained in the telephone book)
C
External calls (caller is an external subscriber)
D
Internal calls (caller is an internal subscriber)
E
Door calls (caller is any door terminal)
F
Other calls
The sequence displayed corresponds to the sequence that is applied in the settings. Applicable call types, for which no settings (Next rule) are configured, are ignored with incoming calls. Instead, the next applicable call type is applied. If no setting is made for any of the applicable call types, the settings of the call type Other calls are used.
