Call Park

Purpose:

The Call Park form associates a park destination directory number with either Loudspeaker Paging or a Direct Page. When users park a call on the directory number, the system automatically connects them to paging. They can then announce the call for the requested party to pick up.

The form also specifies how to handle parked calls when the Call Park Timer in the park destination's Class of Service expires.

The top of the form is used to program the default paging and timeout treatment. Any DNs not explicitly programmed in the bottom of the form use this treatment  Thus, if you want to connect to loudspeaker paging for all parked calls, program the defaults accordingly and leave the balance of the form blank.

Use this form to perform the following tasks:

Call Park Timeout Handling

Choose parked call behavior at expiration of the Call Park timer:

  • Follow the Call Forward No Answer (CFNA) programmed against the park destination

OR

  • Recall the parker

If set to follow CFNA and there is no

  • CFNA destination programmed, then the parked call will follow Call Rerouting on No Answer programmed against the park destination.

  • CFNA or Call Rerouting on No Answer programmed against the destination DN, the parked call will recall the parker.

If the parker is

  • a set in DND, then the DND condition will be overridden in both the idle and busy state.

  • an attendant in ABSENT mode, then the call will follow the DND treatment programmed in the Intercept Handling form for Attendant in Night 1 Service and Attendant in Night 2 Service as appropriate.

  • busy, the call will camp-on to the parker.

  • unavailable for other reasons, the caller will remain in the parking slot and the Call Park timer will be restarted.

After the second timeout the parked call will repeat the same routing sequence.

  • Note: Parked calls are NOT subject to the CFNA and No Answer Recall timers.
