Hotline Dial
Overview
The Hotline Dial option allows you to set up the phone to auto-dial a specific extension or phone number when you take the receiver off hook. This is handy in a lobby area where you can inform the caller to pick up the handset to have the call routed to a specific destination such as an extension, outside phone number, Queue, Ring Group or IVR.
