Changing the Way Calls Are Answered

Temporarily Refusing Calls

Answering Calls Automatically

© Polycom, Inc.
Your system administrator may have configured the system to let you choose
the way incoming calls are handled.
If you do not wish to be disturbed by calls, you can refuse incoming calls with
the Do Not Disturb feature. Callers hear a busy signal and you receive no
notification about incoming calls. You can, however, make outgoing calls.
To temporarily refuse incoming calls:
1. On the Place a Call screen, select
the screen.
2. Select On to set Do Not Disturb.
While the system is not accepting calls, you see
screen. This setting stays in effect until you change it.
You can specify whether to answer calls automatically or to have the system
announce incoming calls and wait for you to answer manually.
Automatically answering calls is convenient, but it can create security issues. An
unexpected caller could interrupt a meeting in progress or look at equipment and notes
left in an empty room.
To prevent incoming callers from overhearing a conversation not intended for them, you
can choose to mute all automatically answered calls.
To automatically answer calls:
1. Select System from the Place a Call screen.
2. Select User Settings from the System screen.
3. If you want to automatically answer incoming point-to-point calls, scroll
to Auto-Answer Point to Point, press
4. If you want to automatically answer incoming multipoint calls, scroll to
Auto-Answer Multipoint, press
5. Press Home to save your change and return to the Place a Call
screen.
