Hunt groups provides functions of call processing center. The device is supported by 3 operation mode of
hunt groups: group, serial and cyclic.
In ‘
group
’
mode, the call will be sent to all the free group ports simultaneously. If one participant of call
group answers, the call to other ports is stopped.
In ‘
serial
’
mode call will be sent to the first free port in the list and, after specified timeout, the next free
port from the list will be added to the main port. When one of the group participants answers, the call to the
other free ports will be finished.

each after each
will be sent to all the free group ports.
