Off-Hook Call Announcement (Ohca) - Panasonic KX-TD816JT Features Manual

Off-Hook Call Announcement (OHCA)

Description
Allows you to inform a busy extension that another call is waiting by talking through the built-
in speaker of the called party's proprietary telephone. If the existing call is using the handset,
the second conversation is made with the speakerphone so that the called party can talk to two
parties independently. OHCA is performed the same way as Busy Station Signalling (BSS). It
depends on the telephone type used by the called party whether Call Waiting, OHCA or
Whisper OHCA is activated by the operation. If the called telephone is one of the following,
OHCA becomes active: KX-T7235, KX-T7536.
Conditions

the caller will hear a reorder tone.
