Description

Eligibility for Coverage

  • When a coverage receiver calls a coverage sender, the call can be sent to coverage. If a receiver calls a sender for whom he or she is covering and the sender is busy or unavailable, the call proceeds to other points of coverage. It does not come back to the receiver who originated the call.
  • If a sender sets the Ring Timing option for No Ring on any Personal Line, Pool, SA, or ICOM buttons, calls arriving on those buttons do not go to coverage.
