Use this feature to define the number of times intercom, transferred and outside calls on lines assigned ownership ring at an extension before they are sent to the covering extension. You can program the number of call coverage rings on an individual extension basis.

If an extension has call coverage and voicemail coverage active, covered calls ring at the covering extension for the specified number of call coverage rings:

If the covering extension does not answer, the call is routed to the voice mailbox of the extension that activated Call Coverage after the specified number of VMS Cover Rings.

If the covering extension has Do Not Disturb active, the call is routed immediately to the voice mailbox of the extension that activated Call Coverage.

An extension user can switch call coverage on or off using a Call Coverage button. The button is also used to set the coverage extension.

One ring is approximately 5 seconds.
