In addition to normal announcements, the MiVoice Office 400 communica-
tion system also allows for emergency announcements. It differs from a
normal announcement in the following aspects:
• You cannot reply to or stop an emergency announcement.
• You cannot block an emergency announcement.
• An emergency announcement may only be executed using function
codes. You will find a list of all function codes in the user's guide “Fea-
tures Overview Mitel 415/430/470” on the Mitel DocFinder
.
Announcement to a group:
• The announcement will only be received by phones which both have
authorisation to receive announcements and are not in use.
• If receipt of announcements is not authorised on any of the phones in
the announcement group or all the phones are in use, you will hear the
busy tone.
• Group announcements are always conducted with a one-sided connec-
tion.
• The group number must be entered as two digits.
