							lMl66-123DXP Plus Programming hstructionsSearch Type (Type of Hunting)
Description:
There are several distinct types of station hunting.Terminal Hunting
Terminal station hunting always delivers a call to the first idle station programmed in the hunt
group.If the station does not answer within a programmed amount of time (programmed as the
Call Advance Timer), the system delivers the call to the next sequential idle station
programmed in the hunt group. The system makes no attempt to balance the distribution of
incoming calls as this is a linear search through the programmed list. The search starts at thebeginning of the list for each incoming call.
Distributed Hunting
Distributed station hunting delivers a call to the next idle station in the hunt group after the
station that received the previous call. If that station does not answer within the programmed
call advance time, the system delivers the call to the next sequential idle station programmed in
the hunt group. This hunting method is a linear search through the programmed list; however,
the search starts wherever it left off after the previous call,Longest Idle Station Hunting
Longest idle station hunting delivers a call to the station that has been idle for the longest period
of time since completing the last call that was routed to it by the station hunting feature. In the
case of stations with equal idle times (such as at system startup), the system picks the first of the
grouped stations with equal idle times. If that station does not answer within the call advance
time, the system delivers the call to the station with the next longest idle period.Ring AR Station Hunting
Ring all station hunting is not a true hunting method. This method delivers a call to all idle
stations simultaneously. This is a good method to use when the site requires that all calls be
answered as quickly as possible.None (No Hunting)
This selection disables hunting for the group. It allows a hunt group to be completely
programmed yet disabled. Any intercom calls to this group will receive a busy tone and lineringing ignores any programming within this group.

destination. The overflow destination is an intercom number or feature code that calls another
station, a group intercom number, a voice mail number, or another station hunt group pilot
extension. With the queue ringing calls feature disabled, and if all stations in the hunt group are
busy, the system immediately routes hunt group calls to the overflow destination.

							7.6.2Member List
Description:Use this procedure to add, remove, and insert stations in the hunt groups. A station hunt group
may contain all stations in the system but is limited to personal intercom numbers only. The
DXP 
Plus supports a maximum of 64 hunt groups.Each hunt group may include the maximum
number of stations that the system can support; however, due to system memory limitations, all
hunt groups may not contain all stations simultaneously. Since the system makes a total of 32
Kbytes of memory available for station hunt groups, you can use the following formula to
determine possible station hunt group capacities.
[32768 Kbytes] - [(Stations per group) x (2) + (220 bytes of memory)] = memory remaining for next hunt group
You may use the system printouts feature to print a list of the station hunt groups if you wish.
Refer to 
Section 13 for printout details.
