Depending on your system configuration, you may be able to choose the
way the system handles incoming calls.
If you do not wish to be disturbed by calls, you can refuse incoming calls
with the Do Not Disturb feature. Callers hear a busy signal and you receive
no notification about incoming calls. You can, however, make outgoing
calls.
To temporarily refuse incoming calls:
1. On the home screen, select
screen.
2. Select On to set Do Not Disturb.
While the system is not accepting calls, you see
corner of the screen. This setting stays in effect until you change it.
Setting your status to I am Available or I am Busy on the contact list home screen
changes the Do Not Disturb icon status on the home screen, if it is displayed there.
Likewise, changing the Do Not Disturb icon on the home screen changes your status
on the contact list home screen.
Depending on your system configuration, you can specify whether to
answer calls automatically or to have the system announce incoming calls
and wait for you to answer manually.
Automatically answering calls is convenient, but it can create security issues. An
unexpected caller could interrupt a meeting in progress or look at equipment and
notes left in an empty room.
To prevent incoming callers from overhearing a conversation not intended for them,
you can choose to mute all automatically answered calls.
