Telephone Operating Instructions
❖ Dial the extension number of the telephone you want to call. The EXT button
indicator changes to ACTIVE. If call announce is allowed, you hear confirmation
tone. Both you and the called station hear warning tone. A two-way call announce
communication path is established.
❖ When your call is finished, hang up. The EXT button indicator changes to idle. The
CALL ANNOUNCE button indicator continues to indicate BUSY.
If the called telephone is busy on another button and is programmed as
protected from off-hook call announce, the call will not be completed and the
system will return busy tone.
A telephone that is not protected from off-hook call announce can receive
call-announced calls while off-hook on another line. The announcement is
heard over the speaker only. The active call continues to be heard over the
handset receiver. To answer the announcement, the called party may
terminate the active call, or put it on hold, or press and hold the MUSIC-
MUTE button to talk to the announcing party. The called party can also toggle
between the handset call and the call-announce call, alternately speaking
with one party or the other over the handset transmitter. The called party can
mute the handset transmitter by pressing the MUSIC-MUTE button for less
than one second. The MUSIC-MUTE button indicator changes to FLASH-
ING.
All call announce simultaneously calls all call announcer telephones in a specified zone
or zones. A telephone may have more than one button for this feature. Each button can
represent one or more all call announce zones. All call announce feature access is
subject to a programmable timeout.
To make an all call announce call:
❖ Lift the handset.
❖ Dial the All Call Announce access code, followed by a zone number if applicable,
or press the ALL CALL ANNOUNCE button. The the EXT and ALL CALL
ANNOUCE button indicators change to ACTIVE. You hear confirmation tone; both
you and the called parties hear warning tone.
Up to three All Call Announce calls can be made at a time, as long as the called
zones are mutually exclusive. For example, Party A can direct a call to zones
1 and 4, Party B to zone 3, and Party C to zone 5, all at the same time. If a
fourth call is attempted, the system will return busy tone. If a call is attempted
to a zone that is already busy, the system will return busy tone.
❖ When your call is completed, hang up. The EXT and ALL CALL ANNOUNCE
button indicators change to IDLE.
If the All Call Announce timer expires while you are talking, you will be cut off
and you will hear reorder tone.
To answer an all call announce call:
❖ Lift the handset.
