Incoming Call Handling
General
Calls can be presented to the Commander Connect on Analogue lines and ISDN lines.
Calls can be programmed to ring Individual Stations, a Ring Group, a Hunt Group, Auto-
Attendant, Courtesy Service or a Voicemail Box / Answering Machine.
Incoming Calls to Individual Stations
When an Incoming call is programmed to ring an individual Station, all diverts Internal or
External, programmed by the Station are acted on.
The call can be forwarded to the Station’s personal Mailbox.
If ‘Do Not Disturb’ is activated by the Station the call is presented to Station 20. (Station 20
cannot activate Do Not Disturb).
For calls on Analogue lines if the Station is Busy the call is queued to the Station and Call
Waiting is activated.
For calls on ISDN lines if the Station is Busy, there is a programming option which allows the call
to be accepted or rejected. See the 'Accept on Busy' Option in ISDN programming in the Line
Programming section. If the call is accepted the call is queued to the Station and Call Waiting is
activated.
Incoming Calls to a Ring Group
When an Incoming call is presented to a Ring group all the free Stations in the Group are called.
The call can then be forwarded to the Group Voice Box if one has been programmed for the
Group.
All Diversions Internal or External, programmed for the Group are acted on as follows:
If ‘Do Not Disturb’ is activated by a Station, the phone is not called.
If all the Stations in a Group activate 'Do Not Disturb' the call is presented to Station 20. Station
20 cannot activate ‘Do Not Disturb’.
If the group is Busy the call is queued to the group and Call Waiting is presented to all the Busy
Stations in the Group.
Note
: A ring group is considered busy if the number of calls being presented to the group
exceeds the number of members in that group.
For calls on ISDN lines:
If the group is busy a programmable option is provided so that the call
can either be rejected or Call Waiting presented. See the 'Accept On Busy' Option in ISDN
programming in the Line Programming section.
