Use the paging feature from the TVS.  The system will page "I have a call
for <name>"  You can go to any phone and use the page pickup code.

We have used this in drug stores for customer service - they carry a
cordless telephone.

Subject: KX-T: Monitoring calls a night on PA

This is probably too simple a question for this group, but here goes.

In the old days before upgrading from the KX-T1232 (12 plain copper CO
lines) to our KX-TD1232 with a KX-TD290 PRI module, we used to have an
answering machine connected to the CO01 line (company main number), and an
amp and speaker connected to the answering machine.

When a call would come in after hours and the answering machine was on, one
could listen to the caller and pick up the call simply by pressing the CO01
button on any phone.

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do this with the PRI.
I have it set up so that in night mode calls go to an extension, where the
answering machine is, after three rings. But once the answering machine has
picked up, how does one pick up the call from any other extension (and get
the answering machine to hang up)?

We do have a TVS120 voice mail system. Maybe hooking up the amp/speaker to
the speaker on the receptionist's phone and program it for live screening
after hours?
