4.6.8 Intercom
The intercom function allows you to establish a connection to a different telephone wit-
hout this connection having to be actively accepted. When this phone accepts the inter-
com call the connection is set up and the LED for the intercom button is activated. The
intercom connection can be ended by pressing the intercom button again, or by pres-
sing the speaker button. The associated LED is deactivated when the intercom call is
terminated.
Intercom calls are accepted automatically at the phone being called by activating the
hands-free calling function when:
•
the phone is idle.
•
the intercom call inhibit filter is not activated.
•
the "Station guarding" function is not activated.
The number of the caller appears in the display of the party being called for intercom
calls. Intercom calls are preceded by a brief acoustic signal over the speaker. Intercom
calls can be terminated by pressing the speaker button. An intercom call is transformed
into a normal call if you lift the handset during an intercom call.
An acoustic signal is sounded every 15 seconds during an intercom connection.
If an intercom connection is not terminated by either of the parties involved, the con-
nection is discontinued automatically after around 2 minutes by the PABX (e.g.For
example: elmeg C46xe, C48m, C88m).
4.6.9 Intercom on / off
If the function "Station guarding" is activated at your phone, you will not be able to recei-
ve any intercom calls. You can also explicitly inhibit or enable receiving of intercom calls
using a corresponding function key.
