GROUP LISTENING
While you are on a call using the handset, you can allow others to hear the conversation through your phone’s speaker.
Turn on the speaker by pressing the programmed [LISTEN] button or selecting the LISTN option on the LCD panel* using the Scroll
button and soft button. Do not replace the handset.The microphone is not switched on, so the calling/called party cannot hear
anyone else in the office. * (“LISTN” changes to “listn” on the LCD).
To resume a private conversation, press the [LISTEN] button again, or select the ‘listn’ option on the LCD panel* using the soft but-
ton
NB: It is advisable, but not essential, to turn the group listening feature off before hanging up to prevent any “squeal” from the
speaker.
OFF-HOOK VOICE ANNOUNCEMENTS
You can make an announcement (OHVA call) through the handset or speaker of a phone that is currently busy on a call. This fea-
ture is useful when you have an urgent message to deliver. You must have a programmed [OHVA] button to do this. OHVA calls
cannot be made to phones in DND mode or which have anOHVA block set (see below). The OHVA feature works with intercom and
transferred calls.
To make an OHVA call:
1. Dial the extension number or press the [DSS] button.
2. When you hear busy tone, press the [OHVA] button or select the OHVA option from the LCD panel using the soft button.
3. Make your announcement after the confirmation tone.
4. Finish the call by replacing the handset, or pressing the [Speaker] button.
Answering an OHVA Call
When receiving an OHVA call, you will hear the announcement through your handset or speaker depending on which you are us-
ing. In either case, you can answer the call before continuing your current call.
Press the flashing [Call] button. This places your current call on hold and allows you to talk to the announcing party.
To disconnect the OHVA call and return to your original call, press the [Call] button for the original call.
Rejecting an OHVA Call
When receiving an OHVA call, press the programmed [REJECT] button or select the REJECT option from the LCD panel using the
soft button. This will disconnect the OHVA call and return you to the original caller.
OHVA Block
You can set an OHVA block to prevent OHVA calls at your phone. While the phone is idle, press the programmed [BLOCK] button or
select the OHBLK option from the OTHER menu on the LCD panel using the [Scroll] button and soft button.
Press the [BLOCK] button again, or turn off the OHBLK option, to cancel the block.
