Announcements (with and without Intercom)

Announcements can be set up on single or multiple system terminals. The
“Announcement” function is available in two versions.

Announcement with intercom: The microphone of the system terminal called
will be switched on (handsfree operation) and the person you are calling can
immediately answer your announcement. An announcement with intercom can
only be conducted to a single system terminal (not a group of terminals).

Announcement without intercom: The called subscriber hears a special infor-
mation tone followed by your announcement. You can also make an
announcement to a group of system terminals (e.g. to a hunt group number on
which calls are signalled simultaneously). All subscribers called hear the
announcement at the same time in this case. The person initiating the
announcement hears a signal tone on his/her telephone when the
(announcement) connection has been established to all called subscribers. If one
of these subscribers replies to the announcement, the announcement call to the
other system terminals is terminated.

The system administrator has to extend the corresponding authorisation for your user
group for you to be able to use the function. If a subscriber being called has activated
announcement protection or intercom protection, announcements to that sub-
scriber’s call number will not be carried out.
