4-60
Conditions
If the intercom (ICM) call in progress is with the attendant, Forced Intercom Call
Forward will not operate. When DND is enabled, standard DND operation is followed.
If forced DND is activated, the operation is treated as if the calling party makes a new
ICM call to the attendant.
You cannot activate Forced Intercom Call Forward if Call Forward is already enabled.

Forced Tone Ringing

Description
In certain environments where background noise is predominant or where speaker
volume has been minimized, a station in Voice Announce mode may not hear your voice
when you place an intercom call. This situation may be averted by using the Forced Tone
Ringing feature. After connection to a Voice Announce station, you may change the alert
signal at the called station from Voice Announce to Tone Ring.
Operation
1. You have just placed an intercom call to a station in Voice Announce mode (Hands-
Free or Private) and cannot get a response. At an Executive Telephone, the display
shows:
1. Dial [✳] to change the alert signal at the called station from Voice Announce to Tone
Ringing. At an Executive Telephone, the display shows:
2. A Tone Ringing alert signal is sent and continues at the call station until answered.
3. If your call remains unanswered, you may dial [✻] again to return to Voice Call
Announce mode.
Conditions
It is not possible to force a station from Tone Ring mode to Voice Announce mode if
that is the mode they have selected.
If you want to leave a Call Back request at a called station that doesn't answer, the
alert signal must be set for Tone Ringing.
