Intercom Dial Tone
DESCRIPTION
3-70 MERLIN II System Features
If you program an Auto Intercom button for the intercom number you
want to call, you can dial the number with one touch.
If the person you are calling has activated the Voice Announcement
Disable feature, any intercom call you place with Intercom-Voice rings
rather than beeps at the person's phone, and you cannot give your voice
announcement.
If you have a digital phone, you can place both ringing and announced
intercom calls, but you can receive only ringing intercom calls.
You can assign two station jacks to a single phone, except basic
telephones, so that people at these phones can receive voice
announcements while they are busy on another call.
Auto Intercom
Voice Announcement to Busy Telephone
Your MERLIN II system provides two types of dial tones: MERLIN II system
internal dial tone and outside line dial tone. These two types of dial tones
make it easy to distinguish an inside line from an outside line. However,
some software applications or modems used by the system do not recognize
the MERLIN II system internal dial tone. If this occurs, you can administer
the system so that the inside dial tone is the same as the outside dial tone so
that it can be recognized by third party systems.
How to Use

1 Press Intercom-Ring.
2 Lift your handset or press Speakerphone.
3 Dial an intercom number for the phone you
want to call.
