Setting the Answering Mode for Intercom Calls
Intercom calls can be answered in one of three modes. You can select whichever
mode suits your working preferences:
RING MODE: The phone rings and you answer using either the handset or the
speakerphone. This is the normal answering mode.
AUTO ANSWER MODE: The phone gives a brief tone and automatically
answers the call. The speakerphone is switched on. (Lift the handset for privacy if
you prefer.)
VOICE ANNOUNCE MODE: The phone gives a brief tone and the caller makes
an announcement. Answer the call by pressing the [Send] button (for the
speakerphone) or using the handset.
If your phone is set as a “Secretary” or “Executive” extension using a hotline, you
also need to tell the system whether the answering mode is for executive
answering rather than normal answering (EXEC ANS or ANS MODE).
If you set voice announce mode on your phone and also set the Call Forwarding
on No Answer function, you must ensure that you press the [Send] button to
answer a call before the ‘no answer’ timer expires. Otherwise, the call will be
forwarded.
