How to use call pickup from a handset when in a ring group
If you are the receptionist, or in a ring group (when a group of phones rings when the phone system rings), if you want to answer a second call you can use a predefined button programmed by vCloud to utilise this function.
On all handsets within a ring group, vCloud Support program a specific function button called "Pickup" or "Call Pickup". This button looks like this on the phone screen display:
Follow these steps to pickup the second, third, fourth .... call:
- Place your existing call on shared park, refer to article below:

- While you can hear the other phones ringing, press the "Pickup" or "Call Pickup" function button.
- Your call will be answered and you can then transfer the call to any other extension if required.
Please Note:
Your first call is on shared park, you will need to go back to this call, as the person calling will remain on hold until you do.
