Hotline 
 
Implementing features, see also Manager E Hotline

Definition  
With the hotline feature, the telephone automatically connects to a predefined internal or external destination after the user lifts the handset.
Users can also configure the feature so that the two locations connect only after a defined period (hotline after timeout). This delay is configured centrally and can be activated and deactivated on each station.
Call forwarding and call forwarding-no answer are evaluated at the destination.
If the Hotline Delayed station (originator) dials a digit before the timeout limit, the timer is canceled and the station is not forwarded to the Hotline destination whether another digit is dialed or not.

Hotline (Number)  
Up to six hotline destinations can be defined.
