6.12  Autodial (Hotline and Warmline) 
Your System Administrator can configure an autodial feature on your phone. If autodial is enabled, 
the phone automatically dials a preconfigured number whenever it is off-hook. Depending on the 
configuration specified by your Administrator, the Autodial functions as either a “hotline”, or as a 
“warmline,” as follows: 
  Hotline: The IP phone immediately dials a preconfigured number when you lift the handset. 
  Warmline: The IP phone waits for a specified amount of time after you lift the handset before 
dialing a preconfigured number. If you do not dial a number within the time allotted, then the IP 
phone begins to dial the number. 
 
  Any speed dial numbers that you configure on your IP phone are not affected by autodial 
settings. 
  If Autodial is configured on your phone, any lines that function as hotlines do not accept 
conference calls, transferred calls, and/or intercom calls. 
6.13  Intercom 
6.13.1  Outgoing Intercom 
You can use the Intercomkey to automatically connect to a remote extension. This feature is 
enabled by the system administrator.  You must have an Intercom softkey to use the Intercom 
feature. 
By default, the IP phone allows incoming intercom calls to be automatically answered without 
having to set up an Icom key on your phone. The phone automatically plays a warning tone and 
mutes the microphone when it receives an incoming intercom call. If the intercom call comes to the 
phone while an active call is already present, the phone puts the active call on hold and answers 
the intercom call. 
6.13.2  Use the Intercom Softkey 
Enter the extension number of the 
person you wish to call on the 
intercom or the BLF key for that 
extension. 
  You hear a beep tone. 
  Your phone automatically connects 
with the remote extension. 
  You can speak through the remote 
phone speaker.
