ICOM Buttons: Key and Behind Switch Modes
In Key mode and Behind Switch mode, telephones have ICOM buttons, which are
used as follows:
To dial the Idle Line Access code (usually ) to select the first idle personal
line assigned to the telephone (Key mode only)
To make an inside call
To activate a feature by using a feature code
To receive inside calls, including voice-announced calls, and transferred
outside calls
An ICOM button can have one of three attributes:
Ring. Used to make inside ringing calls, to receive inside and transferred
outside calls, and to dial the Idle Line Access code to select a personal line.
Voice. Used to make inside voice-announced calls, to receive inside
ringing calls, and to dial the Idle Line Access code to select a personal line.
If the person receiving an inside call made from this button has a
speakerphone and it is not already in use or disabled by having Voice
Announce to Busy turned off, the call arrives on the speakerphone. Both
parties hear a beep and the called person hears the caller's voice over the
speakerphone. Because voice-announced calls cannot be made to
single-line telephones, a call made on this button to a single-line telephone
is a ringing call even if the single-line telephone has a speakerphone.
Originate Only. Used only to make inside calls. Calls are not received on
this button. Its purpose is to ensure that a user always has a button
available to make or transfer calls, establish conference calls, answer
call-waiting calls, or pick up parked calls. The button can be programmed
for either Ring or Voice operation.
The default attribute for all ICOM buttons after the factory settings by telephone
type is Ring.
