Call Forwarding from TTY 2

[Trevor Stuart]

I'm porting some DIDs from one system into an Option 11c.
I'd like to build the new sets in the Option 11c with Call forwarding already active to the users cell phone.
This way they won't miss any class while I'm getting the wires moved, and waiting for phone carrier to complete the port.
I wouldn't be too concerned, but it's quite a few users and could take me a while to get them all re-punched to the Option 11c.

I did a prt of a TN with call forwarding on and off, but didn't see a difference there, also checked the DN and again didn't see a difference.
Is it possible to forward a line from the terminal, then when the new set is physically connected the end user will simply see the checkFw option on the button I've setup as the forwarding button?

No, you cant forward an extension from the TTY Terminal. Just let the callers go to VM during the transition

You can't do it as KCFLHRC says, you can program it and see it on the printouts but its not active. Of course you could add Virtual office, login to the sets and enable the call forward then log out, if that's an option.

Try Personal Call Assistant (PCA) on your Option 11C. It will ring the cell phone and the DN at the same time. There are threads on this forum that will help you with the configuration.

LD 11 will show you how many PCA licenses you have. They're about $20 if you need more. Your users may ask to keep the PCA even after the cutover is complete.
