Panasonic DBS 824 - Manual (Page 248)

Appendix A 2.0 Features Update
Revised April 2000 DBS 824-3.0/3.2-700 A-11
Off-Hook Monitoring
44-Series phones only
CPC-S/M Version 2.0 and higher
Description
Off-Hook Monitoring lets you put a call on speaker while the handset is off-hook.
You can still communicate with the outside party via the handset, but you will also
be able to hear him on the phone’s speaker. He will only be able to hear what is
spoken through your handset, however - audio will not be transmitted through your
microphone.
Operation
1. During a handset call, press the ON/OFF key.
• Another receiver path is established on the phone’s speaker -- you
can now hear the outside party on the speaker as well as in the
handset.
• Your phone’s microphone is muted so that the outside party hears
only what is spoken through your handset. (To mute handset
transmission, press MUTE.)
2. To disable Off-Hook Monitor (“kill” the speaker but stay on the line
with the outside party through the handset), press ON/OFF again.
Separate Speaker Volumes for Internal vs. CO calls
44-Series phones only

Description
You can now establish separate speaker volumes internal (intercom) and external
(CO) calls.
Operation
To adjust volume levels, press the VOLUME key ( s or t ) during the appropriate call
state.
Notes
Adjusting speaker volume will affect only the speaker (i.e., not the handset), and
