Answering Intercom Calls
An intercom call is a call between two system stations. If a speakerphone, your
station will receive intercom calls in one of two ways depending upon system
programming. In a voice-first setting, a short tone followed by the caller’s voice
heard on the speaker. With a tone-first setting, the telephone rings in a distinctive
pattern and the receiving station must take action to answer. Of course, if either
station is not speakerphone equipped, all calls will arrive tone-first.
You can block voice-announce calls if you wish. See the discussion titled Blocking
Voice Announce Calls for details.
