Call Park Call Park 93 Use Call Park to place a call in a "holding pattern" and make it available for another person to pick up from any telephone on the system. Use the internal paging feature, the external paging feature, or both, to announce the call. The recipient can retrieve the call from any NBX Telephone or analog telephone by dialing the Call Park extension that you give during your announcement. This feature is useful in any of these circumstances: ■ The recipient is elsewhere in the building. ■ You want to continue a call on another telephone, for instance, in a conference room for privacy, and transferring the call does not give you enough time to retrieve it. When you park a call, you assign it a Call Park extension, which anyone can use to retrieve it. Table 12 lists the default Call Park extension numbers. Ask your administrator to verify the Call Park extensions for your location. Table 12 Default Call Park Extension Numbers System 4-digit dial plan 3-digit dial plan Default Extension Numbers 6000 - 6099 601 - 609 If the call is not answered within 5 minutes (default) after it is parked, it rings again at the original telephone. Your administrator can modify the length of this waiting period. To park a call: 1 While you are on a call, press the Feature button and 444, or press the Access button assigned to Call Park. 2 Dial a Call Park extension from the list shown in Table 12 or the list of extensions at your location. If you select a Call Park extension that is already in use, the display panel on your NBX Telephone displays Park Cancelled, and the call rings back to your telephone. Try another Call Park extension.
