1.15.1 Doorphone Call

Description
It is possible to connect doorphones directly to the PBX. When a visitor presses the call button on a
doorphone, the doorphone calls a preprogrammed destination (extension or outside party). In addition,
extension users can dial the preset number of a doorphone to call that doorphone.

The incoming doorphone call destination(s) can be assigned for each time mode (day/lunch/break/
