Intercom Operation

The intercom feature allows you to have a conversation with another registered handset without tying up the telephone line, allowing you to still receive incoming calls.

Making an Auto Intercom Call

1.Make sure the handset is OFF (not in TALK mode).

2.Press the delete/int/conf button on the handset.

3.Use the touch-tone pad to select the handset you want to page.

4.A long beep is heard and then the two handsets are immediately connected. Receiving handset shall immediately come into the auto intercom mode that both “microphone” and “speaker” of this receiving handset shall be enabled such that the user of receiving handset can freely talk and listen to the conversation.

5.When finished, press the END button or delete/int/conf button on either handset to deactivate the intercom.

Advanced Intercom Features

Receiving an Incoming Call During an Intercom Call

If you receive a telephone call during an intercom call, an incoming call alert tone will be heard (through the earpiece or speaker). If the user wants to answer an incoming call, they must press END to terminate the intercom and receive an incoming ring.

Using Intercom with External Telephone Calls

During a telephone call, you may use the intercom/paging function to page another handset and have an off line, private (two-way) intercom conversation. You may also have a three-way conversation between the external caller and the handsets, or you may transfer the external telephone call to another handset.

NOTE: Before you intercom/page another handset, you must decide whether you want to create a two-way or a three-way conversation.
