How to Make an Intercom Call

An intercom call, or inside call, is a call between two extensions without using an
outside line. There are two ways you can signal the extension you are calling: by
ringing or by voice.

System Phone

You can lift the handset or press

S

before dialing, then:

1. Press an idle

i

button (red and green lights are both off).

You hear intercom dial tone, and the green light next to the

i

button

is on steady.

2. To

ring the extension, dial the two-digit extension number.

To

voice-signal a system phone at the extension, press

*

plus the

two-digit extension number and listen for one of the following responses:

If you hear

one beep, you have reached an idle system phone. You

can speak after the beep.
Your voice is heard through the other extension’s speaker. If the
recipient is present, he or she can reply.

If you hear

two beeps, you have reached a busy system phone with

Voice Interrupt On Busy Assigned. You can speak after the beeps.
Be aware that the third party to whom the recipient is speaking
probably also will hear the two beeps and the faint sound of your
voice.Be brief and discreet in your interruption.
If the recipient has a Voice Interrupt On Busy Talk-Back button, wait
for a response.

If you hear

ringing, you have reached an idle standard, MLC-6, or

TransTalk 9000-series phone, or a busy system phone with Voice
Interrupt On Busy Not Assigned. Your call is not completed until
someone answers.
