Intercom operation
Intercom overview
This 1040 telephone is fully compatible with any AT&T Four-Line Small
Business System Speakerphone 1070 or 1080 phones you may have installed.
You can use a total of 16 1080/1070/1040 phones together as extensions in
your phone system.
Each individual phone in your telephone system MUST be assigned a unique
extension number for the intercom feature to work. See
EXTENSION NUMBER
on page 32 of the installation guide for instructions.
This intercom features both a single-phone page and a system-wide page
(PAGE ALL).
A single-phone page alerts only one phone. A system-wide page (PAGE ALL)
alerts all system phones. Any phone with the
Do Not Disturb (DND) feature
activated will not receive a page.
An intercom call rings at the destination extension with a repeating double-ring
pattern.
A single-phone page automatically activates the speakerphone on the receiving
phone. You can deactivate the speakerphone by lifting the handset.
NOTES:
• If a line is in use, pressing [INTERCOM] will place the line on hold and
activate the intercom (page 24).
