Untimed Local Call

Not required. All local calls are untimed

 

Note 1)  Depending on the model of the analogue phone you are using, the “RECALL” button may be labelled as “FLASH”. 

 

Note 2)  The Alcatel system provides automatic voice prompts at every opportunity.  So, for example, if you wanted to “Forward all calls” but were unsure of the process, you would enter the *01 feature access code, pause, and follow the audio prompts thereafter.  Once you become accustomed to the Alcatel feature access codes you can pre-empt the voice prompts and just enter *017890 without a pause to forward all calls to extension 7890.

 

Group Pickup

Group pickup is a facility whereby several telephone extensions can be programmed to be members of a group.  This facility must have been requested and pre-programmed by ITD staff before the Group Pickup feature will operate. A cost code is required for this change.

 

Pickup any call within the group

To pick up a call from any phone within a group that’s ringing:

·  lift the handpiece

·  dial *6

 

Please contact the IT Service Desk if you require this facility to be programmed.

NB:  The Alcatel system will only retain one mode of call forwarding at a time e.g. if you have programmed a call forward no answer and then program a call forward all calls, the second call forward overrides the first. 

 

 

Camp-on with callback

If a dialled extension is busy you can “camp on”.  When you dial an extension that is busy, you will not hear the busy tone, a voice prompt will inform you that “you may request automatic callback by dialling 5”. After dialling 5 the voice prompt will inform you that “your request has been recorded” and that “you may now hang up”.  When your extension and the extension that you were waiting for are both free, your telephone will ring.  When you lift the handpiece of your telephone you will hear ring tone to the extension that you were waiting for.

 

To cancel the “camp on” request:

  • lift your handpiece
  • dial *90 followed by the number of the extension you were waiting for
  • replace the handpiece.
