Call Pickup allows telephones to be arranged in groups consisting of any
combination of analog (500/2500 type) telephones, and Meridian 1
proprietary telephones.
Telephones can be specified as Call Pickup allowed or Call Pickup denied. If
the telephone’s Class of Service is Call Pickup allowed, the user can answer
calls made to any telephone within the Call Pickup group. If the telephone’s
Class of Service is Call Pickup denied, but the telephone is assigned to a Call
Pickup group, the user cannot answer calls directed to other telephones. Calls
to the denied telephone, however, can be answered by other members of the
group.
Meridian 1 proprietary telephones can dial-access this feature, or be equipped
with a Call Pickup key. An associated lamp is not required.


Directed Call Pickup (DCP) allows a caller from one Call Pickup group to
pick up a ringing call in another Call Pickup group. The ringing call is picked
up by dialing either its Call Pickup Group number or the DN on which it is
ringing.
Directed Call Pickup adds two new methods of Call Pickup to the existing
Call Pickup feature:
• Group Pickup (GPU), and
• DN Pickup (DPU).
Group Pickup lets you pick up any ringing call in your own pickup group, or
any pickup group in the system.

DN Pickup allows pickup of a call ringing on a specified DN. If a DN is not
assigned to any group, it defaults to Group Zero (0). This prevents any other
group from picking up that DN.
Both GPU and DPU can be activated using programmable keys or Special
Prefix (SPRE) code dialing. Each pickup method can be assigned to a
telephone independent of the others.
The dialed digits (DN or group number) are displayed on the Digit Display as
dialed. Like the Call Pickup feature, the lamp is optional for the Call Pickup
and Group Call Pickup keys. No second dial tone is given after the key is
pressed, nor is it given after the SPRE code is dialed.
