Release 21.41 and later software will now override the hardware setting and
default to Handsfree denied (HFD.) If the handsfree option is desired, the
system administrator simply enables Handsfree via a Class of Service prompt
(HFA) included on Overlay 11 programming for the M2008 telephones
(consistent with M2616).

X11 Release 21.41 introduced support for the Meridian M2008HF set by
providing a "Class of Service" change for Overlay 11 that allows handsfree
operation on set type M2008. If MAT is equipped, a patch is required for
MAT Release 4.02 to support this feature. Sites running MAT Release 3
cannot be patched to support this operation. Sites with MAT Release 3 must
upgrade to MAT Release 4 and obtain a patch to support M2008 handsfree
operation. The patch is available from ETAS.
Handsfree operates as if an off-hook operation had been performed. For
example, when the telephone is idle, pressing the Handsfree/Mute key turns
on the integrated Handsfree and selects a DN (depending on line selection as
assigned through COS), allowing the user to make a call. When a call comes
in to an M2008HF/M2616 and the set is ringing, pressing the Handsfree/Mute
key turns on the Handsfree and allows the user to answer the incoming
(ringing) call (depending on COS-assigned line selection) without picking up
the handset.
