3.7 Making Intercom Calls
You can dial an intercom extension manually from the dial pad or
automatically using a direct station select (DSS) button that you have
previously programmed. There are two methods for making an intercom
call. One causes the called telephone to ring. The other causes your voice
to sound out at the called telephone. Your installer can set the system to
deliver either tone-first or voice-first calling.
Keep in mind that whatever the system setting, a called party can set a
voice announce block condition at his or her telephone to prevent all
voice announce calls. Furthermore, if he or she blocks voice announce,
the system also blocks SOHVA calls.
(The following instructions assume a tone-first setting. Any user can
change a call to voice announce signaling for that call simply by
pressing the INTERCOM button again after dialing the extension
number or by pressing the DSS button again.)
•
To manually cause the other telephone to ring (tone calling),
1. Press INTERCOM.
2. Dial extension number (called telephone will ring).
•
To tone call automatically,
1. Press DSS button (called telephone will ring).
(The following instructions assume a voice-first default setting. Any user
can change a call to a tone signaling for that call simply by pressing the
INTERCOM button again after dialing the extension number or by
pressing the DSS button again.)
