232 Model 6757i IP Phone User Guide
Additional Features
Auto-Answer/Play Warning Tone
The auto-answer feature on the IP phone allows you to enable or disable automatic answering
for an Intercom call. If “Auto-Answer” is enabled, the phone automatically answers an incoming
intercom call. If “Play Warning Tone” is also enabled, the phone plays a tone to alert you before
answering the intercom call. If “Auto-Answer” is disabled, the phone rejects the incoming
intercom call and sends a busy signal to the caller. "Auto-Answer" and "Play Warning Tone"
are enabled by default.
Allow Barge In
You can configure whether or not the IP phone allows an incoming intercom call to interrupt an
active call. The “Allow Barge In” parameter controls this feature. When you enable the this
parameter, which is the default value, an incoming intercom call takes precedence over any
active call, by placing the active call on hold and automatically answering the intercom call.
When you disable this parameter, and there is an active call, the phone treats an incoming
intercom call like a normal call and plays the call warning tone. "Allow Barge In" is enabled by
default.
Note: Your Administrator can set a time period delay before the phone
automatically answers. Contact your System Administrator for more information.
