VOICE ANNOUNCE / HANDS-FREE REPLY
Feature 98
The telephone provides the ability to receive incoming intercom calls with
voice announce enabled, or disabled. When voice announce is enabled both
parties are able to speak without pressing additional keys. However, if set to
voice announce deny, the receiving extension receives a ring-back tone and
must lift the handset or press the speaker key to answer the call.
For private conversations, press the mute key on your telephone and the
voice announce option becomes private. You must press the mute key to
speak to the calling party. The mute key must be reactivated each time.
The user can select between these modes as their needs change:
Voice Announce – Hands Free Mode: Hands-free, gives the station user
the ability to receive incoming intercom calls, without having to press any
keys. The user receives a tone burst; the user and the intercom caller are
instantly connected and can converse freely.
Tone Ring Mode – All calls to this extension will ring. The user must
press either the Speaker key or the lift the handset.
Voice Announce Private – Once the Mute key is activated the next call
will be considered private so the calling party cannot hear the private
conversation. The Mute key must be reactivated after each call
