FORWARDING CALLS

[milkshake456]

I need to put two forward unconditional buttons on a single phone to forward all calls to two different numbers. How can i set the forward unconditional on feature to put another number in the forward to line?

Thank You

Try using a follow me button, and a forwarding button.

Use the 'Forward Number' button from buttonprogramming\advanced\forwarding\forward number.
Fill the action data with the internal or external number including the prefix.
Make 2 of them with different external numbers and label them correctly in the label field.

Use an extra 'Forward Unconditional On' button to toggle the Forward on or off.
If forward is on (lamp on 64xx or triangle on 54xx) you can still switch between the different nummers (also indicated by lamp or triangle)

I have used this feature on 5410/20 and 64xx series.
Works well and if you also add a button 'Call forwarding all' button from buttonprogramming\emulation\call forwarding all, you can still manually alter the destination for flexible solutions.

You only need to use Emulation\Call Forwarding All button.
I never use the advanced\forward\xxxx

Call forwarding all buttons can be pre-programmed in the action data field.
These buttons toggles nicely.

You can also add a blank Call Forwarding All button for the flexibility.

If you have pressed some of the pre-programmed forwarding buttons, the blank Call Forwarding All button will also indicate as activated. You can have the pre programmed buttons on your phones first display-page. The blank button can be on anothe page.

Nice and clean.

Well that saves one button, could be handy if you're programming a 6408 with only 8 buttons.

Thanks.

Maybe you already know this Escorthosis, Tha display buttons on the 64xx-series are programmable too.

This way you will have 12 more buttons to use. Set the flexible Call forwarding all button on one of the 8 with lamp. The preprogrammed in the display. This way you only use 1 of the eight button and it will light whehter that is set or one of the pre programmed displaybuttons are set.
You should see an arrow pointing to the preprogrammed display button also when you toggle on.

I just realized theese, in fact, handy display buttons just as we stopped selling 64xx series and sold 54xx.
