Handsfree Answerback and Forced Intercom Ringing

Handsfree Answerback permits an extension user to respond to a voice-announced Intercom call by
speaking toward the phone, without lifting the handset. Like Handsfree, this is a convenience for
workers who don't have a free hand to pick up the handset. Incoming Intercom calls alert with two
beeps if the extension has Handsfree Answerback — a single beep if it does not.
Forced Intercom Ringing causes an Intercom call to ring the destination extension. You can enable
Forced Intercom Ringing system-wide (for all extensions), or a user can dial a code to have their
Intercom call ring the destination.

Answerback on page 67.
