Setting trunk answer from any
station
There may be situations where you want everyone to be able to
answer calls when the attendant is away. Use trunk answer any
station (TAAS) to configure the system so that it notifies
everyone when calls are ringing. Then, you can give users the
trunk answer any station feature access code so they can answer
these calls.
When the system is in night service mode, attendant calls redirect
to an alerting device such as a bell or a buzzer. This lets other
people in the office know when they should answer the phone.
NOTE:
If no one answers the call, the call will not redirect to night
service.
Let’s define a feature access code (we’ll use 71) and configure the
alerting device for trunk answer any station.
To set the feature access code for TAAS:
1. Type
change feature-access-codes and press RETURN.
The Feature Access Code screen appears.
2. In the Trunk Answer Any Station Access Code field, enter
71.
3. Press
ENTER to save your changes.
Once you set the feature access code, determine where the
external alerting device is connected to the switch (we’ll use
port 01A0702).
