Call Coverage Keys
Description
A keyset can have Call Coverage Keys for a co-worker’s extensions, Ring Group master numbers and UCD 
Group master numbers. The Call Coverage Key lights when the co-worker’s extension is busy, flashes slowly 
when the co-worker has an incoming call, and flashes fast when the co-worker is in Do Not Disturb. The Call 
Coverage Key can ring immediately when a call comes into the covered extension, ring after a delay or not 
ring at all. In addition, the keyset user can press the Call Coverage Key to intercept their co-worker’s incom-
ing call. They can also go off hook and press the Call Coverage key to call the covered extension. An exten-
sion can have as many Call Coverage Keys as they have available Feature Keys on their telephone.
Call Coverage Keys will intercept the following types of calls:
Key Ring Calls
Ringing Intercom calls
Calls to a UCD Group master number
Calls ringing a Group Ring master number
Transferred calls
Call Coverage Keys will not intercept a call ringing the attendant’s Operator Call Key.
Call Coverage Guard Timer
The 4 second Call Coverage Guard Timer helps extensions that have the same Call Coverage key assign-
ments. As soon as an extension user presses their Call Coverage key to answer a call, the key becomes 
unavailable for 4 seconds to all other extensions with that same key. (Users will hear reorder tone if they 
press their key before the 4 seconds expire.) This helps prevent users from inadvertently placing a call to the 
covered destination.
Conditions
• None
Default Setting
• No Call Coverage Keys assigned.
• The Call Coverage Delay Ring timer is 10 seconds.
Call Coverage keys allow an extension user to cover a co-worker’s calls from their own telephone.
