3.11 Making A Subdued Off-Hook

Voice Announcement (SOHVA)

You can make a subdued voice announcement to another station that is
off-hook and busy on a call if the system is arranged to provide this
feature. Your telephone provides a SOHVA interactive button for this
purpose. You decide whether to deliver a SOHVA message, camp on at
that station, set a message-waiting indicator, or hang up when you hear
an intercom busy tone.
• Make a SOHVA announcement using the SOHVA button as
follows:
1. Make intercom call and hear busy tone. If called station is on
outside line, ring-back tone is heard, but SOHVA is still
available.
2. Decide whether to interrupt,
3. If you decide not to interrupt the called party, hang up.
—OR—
To interrupt, press SOHVA button and hear several quick tone
bursts.
4. Make announcement (busy tone means that the called
telephone is in speakerphone mode and you cannot make
announcement, that your SOHVA has been denied through
system programming, or the called party has blocked your
SOHVA).
5. Wait on line for reply (either verbal or LCD reply).
NOTE: You cannot control how the announcement is received. This
depends upon whether or not the called party is using a
headset and how his or her station is programmed. For
example, if the called party has set their station to call forward
to voice mail or to another station not in the SOHVA group,
your announcement will not be received.
