Using The Other Telephone Features
7.6
Listening To A Call Over The
Telephone Speaker (Group Listening)
You can turn on the speaker in your speakerphone while you have the
handset lifted. The distant party's voice then sounds over the speaker as
well as over the handset; however, only your handset microphone is
active.
This group listening feature also works if you are using your headset
(only the headset microphone will be active).
Refer to the chapter on programming for instructions on how to program
the GROUP LISTEN button.
• To activate group listening while on a call,
1. Press the preprogrammed GROUP LISTEN button.
• To cancel group listening,
1. Press the preprogrammed GROUP LISTEN button again.
NOTE: You should cancel Group Listening before hanging up the
handset to end the call.
7.7
Making A Call Non-Private (Privacy Release)
It is often the case that telephones will share line appearance for one or
more lines. When a person in the group uses a line for which others have
the same line appearance, the system keeps the call private (others cannot
join the conversation by pressing the line button of the line being used).
That person can make the call non-private by pressing the
preprogrammed PRIVACY RELEASE button, allowing other
telephones (with line appearance for the line being used) to join the call.
Privacy returns to the line when the call is completed.
Refer to the chapter on programming for instructions on how to program
the PRIVACY RELEASE button.
• To release privacy from your telephone while on a call,
1. Press preprogrammed PRIVACY RELEASE button. (The light
next to the PRIVACY RELEASE button will remain on steady
when your telephone is in a non-private mode.)
Others who wish to join the call must press the active line button
on their telephones.
