Pickup Shared park from cordless

[JDawson]

Hey guys,
I cant seem to find a way to pickup call park from a cordless handset. All of the phones are yealink. The corded handsets pick up call park by pressing a BLF button. However that is not an option on cordless. Can anyone advise how to do it?

One of the easier ways of having "simple" phones pick up calls from shared parking spots is to create a few dummy extensions. Forward each to a SPX parking spot...501 -> SP1, 502 -> SP2 etc. A set simply has to get dial-tone, then dial the associated extension number, to retrieve a call.

So I set up an extension and then forward that extension to sp? Then to place on hold they transfer to that extension then to pickup they just dial the extension. Is that correct?

Yup, that is basically it.

You might want to have a read through this as there is a warning about it's use, if it applies to you.

BLFs are not available for DECT phones. This means you cannot use shared parking on them.

If you know the intended recipient will be a DECT device, then try parking it in an orbit (ie. transfer to *00)
The DECT device can unpark it by calling *10
