3.6 Making Intercom Calls

You can dial an intercom extension manually from the dial pad or
automatically using a direct station select (DSS) button that you have
previously programmed. There are two methods for making an
intercom call. One causes the called telephone to ring. The other
causes your voice to sound out at the called telephone. Your installer
can set the system to deliver either tone-first or voice-first calling,
although all systems have tone-first as the default condition.
Keep in mind that whatever the system setting, a called party can set a
voice announce block condition at his or her telephone to prevent all
voice announce calls. Furthermore, if he or she blocks voice
announce, the system also blocks SOHVA calls.
Note: The following instructions assume a tone-first default setting.
Any user can change a call to voice announce signaling for that call
simply by pressing the Intercom button again after dialing the exten-
sion number or by pressing the DSS button again.
To manually cause the other telephone to ring (tone calling),
1. lift handset and press Talk (if necessary),
2. press button to select intercom (if necessary),
3. dial extension number (called telephone will ring).
