Incoming Intercom Call Features

Incoming Intercom

By default, the IP phone allows incoming intercom calls to be automatically answered without having to set up an Icom key on your phone. The phone automatically plays a warning tone when it receives an incoming intercom call. It also mutes the microphone. If the intercom call comes into the phone while an active call is already present, the phone puts the active call on hold and answers the intercom call.

You can change the behavior of how the phone handles incoming intercom calls by enabling/ disabling specific parameters using the Aastra Web UI. The following table describes these features.

Description

Aastra Web UI

Microphone Mute

Allows you to enable or disable the microphone

 

on the IP phone for Intercom calls made by the

 

originating caller.

 

 

Auto Answer

Allows you to enable or disable the IP phone to

 

automatically answer an Intercom call. If

 

auto-answer is enabled on the IP phone, the

 

phone plays a tone (if "Play Warning Tone" is

 

enabled) 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.

 

Your Administrator can set a time period delay

 

before the phone automatically answers. Contact

 

your System Administrator for more information.

Play Warning Tone

Allows you to enable or disable a warning tone to

 

play when the phone receives an incoming

 

intercom call on the phone.

 

 

Allow Barge In

Allows you to enable or disable how the phone

 

handles incoming intercom calls while the phone

 

is on an active call.

 

 

Microphone Mute

You can mute or unmute the microphone on the IP phone for intercom calls made by the originating caller. If you want to mute the intercom call, you enable this feature. If you want to unmute (or hear the intercom call), you disable this feature. "Microphone Mute" is enabled by default.
