destination phone becomes available. When you activate camp on, the
system monitors the called telephone. When the extension can receive a
call, the system automatically dials your phone (using a priority ring or
other audible ring tone that is different than your programmed ring tone)
and redials the original called extension.
You can camp on system extensions. You cannot camp on external phone
numbers, hunt groups, pickup groups, or paging groups. If the called
extension does not become free within a time period specified by your
administrator, Camp On expires.
To camp on an extension you call:
1 When you make a call and hear a busy tone, press Feature + 469. The
system camps on the phone you are calling. You can hang up.
2 When the called extension becomes available, the system calls your
phone. When you answer your phone, the called extension begins to
ring.
To camp on an extension when you transfer a call:
1 When you are transferring a call and hear a busy tone, press Feature
+
469. The system camps on the phone you are calling. Explain to the
person whose call you are transferring that the call will call back. When
you hang up, the person whose call you are transferring is put on hold.
2 When the called extension becomes available, the system calls the
destination extension.
If Camp On expires before the destination becomes available, the system
calls you back and connects you to the person whose call you were
transferring.
Transferring Your
Phone Settings to
Another Phone
This feature enables you to use any 3Com phone attached to the same
VCX system (call processor) as your phone with all your phone’s settings.
It is possible for an administrator to lock an extension to a particular
phone. If this is the case, you cannot program the phone to use your
extension.
