Incoming Intercom Calls
On the 57i CT, you can receive incoming intercom calls. By default, the
microphone for an incoming intercom call is OFF, and the automatic
answer for an intercom call is ON.
Using the Aastra Web UI, you can enable (turn ON) or disable (turn OFF)
the microphone or automatic answering (auto-answer) on the IP phone for
incoming intercom calls. If auto-answer is enabled on the IP phone, the
phone plays a tone to alert the user before answering the intercom call. If
auto-answer is disabled, the phone rejects the incoming intercom call and
sends a busy signal to the caller.
