Reverse Voice Over is great, for example, if you’re busy on the phone and you
need an associate to get you a file. While your caller is talking:
● Press the Reverse Voice Over key.
● Request the file.
● Return to the call without the caller even knowing you were gone.
If you’re not busy on the phone, your Reverse Voice Over key works the same
as a Hotline key. Just press the key to call the assigned co-worker. The Reverse
Voice Over key even shows you the status of your co-worker:
When You’re On a Call
To place a Reverse Voice Over Call:

To return to your initial caller:
1. Release FUNCTION KEY (Reverse Voice Over).
When Your Phone is Idle
To place a call to your Reverse Voice Over destination:
1. TALK + FUNCTION KEY (Reverse Voice Over).
Ringdown
Call a co-worker or outside party by just pressing TALK on your handset. The
call goes through automatically -- there is no need to dial digits. There are two
types of Ringdown: Ringdown Extension and External Hotline. With Ringdown
Extension, you reach another extension (typically a lobby or service phone)
when you press TALK. If your phone has External Hotline, your phone auto-
matically dials a specified Common Abbreviated Dialing number instead. If you
want either of these Ringdown options on your phone, talk to your
Communications Manager.
When a user presses TALK on a Ringdown Extension, the ringdown occurs
after an interval that is set in system programming. Try to monitor this opera-
tion. If the interval is too long, unauthorized users may have time to call your
co-workers or use system features. (External Hotline always occurs as soon as
you press TALK.)
