Suite Check-in allows you to have the switch automatically check-in more than 
one phone with one check-in command (whether from your Property Management 
System (PMS) or an on-switch check-in from an attendant).

When a room phone is checked in, the switch looks for a hunt-to extension 
associated with that phone. If it finds one, the switch also checks in the phone 
found in the hunt-to field. The switch also:

■

removes controlled outward restriction

■

adds the guest’s name to the phone record for that extension

■

stores the call coverage path

■

removes any Leave Word Calling (LWC) messages

■

marks the room as “occupied”

If the hunt-to (second or subsequent) phone has an extension in its hunt-to field, 
that phone also is checked in. The switch continues checking in phone until it 
meets a phone in the chain with a blank hunt-to field.

Your system manager programs this feature into your console to occur 
automatically. Perform the regular check-in procedures described in 

on page 22

.

Station Hunt Before Coverage provides that when a call is made to a busy phone, 
the switch checks to see if there is a hunt-to phone assigned to the busy phone. If 
there is, the switch tries to connect to the hunt-to phone before going to coverage. 
If the hunt-to phone is busy too, the switch continues hunting down the hunt-to 
chain. If all phone in the hunt-to chain are busy, the call goes to the principal’s 
coverage.

Your system manager programs this feature into your console to occur
