Hotline
Description
Hotline gives a keyset user with a programmed Hotline key one-button calling and Transfer to another exten-
sion (the Hotline partner). Hotline helps co-workers that work closely together. The Hotline partners can call
or Transfer calls to each other just by pressing a single key.
In addition, the Hotline key shows the status of the partner’s extension:
Hotline Automatic Transfer
With Hotline Automatic Transfer, the extension can Transfer their call to a co-worker just by pressing their
Hotline key and hanging up. Without Hotline Automatic Transfer, the user must press
TRANSFER before
pressing the Hotline key. If the user frequently uses their Hotline key for one-button Transfer to co-workers,
Hotline Automatic Transfer is recommended. If the user prefers to consult with their Hotline partner rather
than Transfer, disabling Hotline Automatic Transfer would be helpful.
Pressing a Hotline key can Transfer a call to an uninstalled extension’s mailbox (if the mailbox is
enabled).
Hotline provides partner extensions with one-button calling and Transfer.
