Call Forwarding and Do-Not-Disturb
The System allows you to set or cancel both Call Forwarding and Do-Not-Disturb (DND) for your 
own extension in one step.
To cancel Call Forwarding and DND:
Hardware Requirements
•N/A
Related Programming
• FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Call Forward/All/Busy/No-Answer and DND Cancel)
• FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Call Forward/All Calls)
• FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Call Forward/Busy)
• FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Call Forward/No Answer)
• FF1-0-03: Extension COS (Call Forward/Other)
• FF1-2: Dial Plan
Considerations
• Calls cannot be forwarded to an extension that already has Call Forwarding DND activated.For 
example, extension 220 can only forward to extension 225 if 225 is not forwarded.
• If forwarding to an outside number, the destination number must be pre-programmed into a 
System Speed Dial (SSD) code.
• Call Forwarding - Busy and Call Forwarding - No Answer can both be set at the same time.
• You can set Call Forwarding - All Calls while Call Forwarding - No Answer and/or Call 
Forwarding - Busy are set. Canceling one mode only affects that mode; however, the other 
modes will remain set until canceled individually.
• An auto camp-on to a busy extension will forward to the Call Forward No Answer destination. A 
manual camp-on to a busy extension will not forward.
• If Call Forwarding No Answer and DND are both set, calls immediately forward to the Call 
Forward No Answer destination.
• You can cancel both Call Forwarding and DND by entering 7 * *.

Call Park
You can use the Call Park function to transfer a call, even if you cannot locate the intended recipient 
of the call.
CO, Extension, and Network calls may be parked.
There are two ways for an extension to park a call on the DBS 576. One way is to park the call at the 
receiving extension and to retrieve the parked call at another extension by dialing the park answer 
code plus the parking extension number. The other way is to park the call at another extension and 
dial the park transfer answer code at the other extension to retrieve the call. Beginning with Version 
3.6, an Extension Group Pickup code allows the user to pick up a Transfer Recall (only on non-
appearing calls), a Hold Recall, and a Station Park Recall.
