Announcements (with and without Intercom)

Announcements can be set up on single or multiple system terminals. The
"Announcement" function is available in two versions.
● Announcement with intercom: The microphone of the system terminal
called will be switched on (handsfree operation) and the person you are
calling can immediately answer your announcement. An announcement
with intercom can only be conducted to a single system terminal (not a
group of terminals).
● Announcement without intercom: The called subscriber hears a special
information tone followed by your announcement. You can also make an
announcement to a group of system terminals (e.g. to a hunt group
number on which calls are signalled simultaneously). All subscribers called
hear the announcement at the same time in this case. The person initiating
the announcement hears a signal tone on his/her telephone when the
(announcement) connection has been established to all called subscribers.
If one of these subscribers replies to the announcement, the
announcement call to the other system terminals is terminated.
The system administrator has to extend the corresponding authorisation for
your user group for you to be able to use the function. If a subscriber being
called has activated announcement protection or intercom protection,
announcements to that subscriber's call number will not be carried out.
