Making and receiving calls is the basic purpose of any endpoint. With your endpoint,
you can make/receive intercom and outside calls as well as make emergency calls.
Intercom Calls
Your extension number allows other people to place intercom calls to you, without
dialing any extra codes. And, because every endpoint in your telephone system is
assigned an extension number, you can call other people in your system quickly and
easily.
NOTE:
Ask your system administrator for a list of extensions.
Placing Intercom Calls

1.
Press .
2.
Dial an extension number.
3.
Wait for the call to be answered.
4.
When finished, press

NOTE:
Do not use the
button to end a call, because that will turn
your endpoint off and you will not receive calls until you turn the endpoint
back on.
