Call packup groub in kx-ns500

[Ali. Ibra]

Hi for all panasonic people there..!
I have kx-ns500 and Im trying to change call packup groub feature code to *0 instead of this *40 so from tool i chose call packup for my groub and chose yes. But nothing change the call packup groub is still *40 so what i have to do next in order to change the code to *0...?

You won’t get *o only on number plan as you have to choose the group to pickup. So you will have to dial *40 then 01 for group

In number plan you can change *40 to *0 and then you can dial *0 01

If you want to use *0 to dial the code *4001 you can use quick dial codes

To do any of this *0 has to be available as a number and not used as *0-*001 etc

Is this the right way to use the quick dial feature to make *0 pickup groub call..? Well i dont have kx-ns500 on my office to try this so if anyone have kx-ns500, just if you can try this and tell me a bout the result.

Yes, that’s the way

That is almost good way! But!!! What will you do if you'll need for 2 or more Call PickUp groups?

Better way is to improve you Quick dial table as below:
*01 - *4001
*02 - *4002
.......
======

The best way is to combine Quick dial and Personal Speed dial features (but this method is available for wired extensions only!).
Quick Dial:
# - ***00

Personal Speed Dial (PSD) for every extension - put into the cell 00 it's own Call PickUp combination.
E.g.:
Ext - PSD cell 00
101 - *4005
102 - *4001
103 - *4012
