Aastra Telecom 6751I manual Auto-Answer/Play Warning Tone, Allow Barge

Additional Features

Auto-Answer/Play Warning Tone

The auto-answer feature on the IP phone allows you to enable or disable automatic answering for an Intercom call. If “Auto-Answer” is enabled, the phone automatically answers an incoming intercom call. If “Play Warning Tone” is also enabled, the phone plays a tone to alert you 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.

"Auto-Answer" and "Play Warning Tone" are enabled by default.

Note: Your Administrator can set a time period delay before the phone automatically answers. Contact your System Administrator for more information.

Allow Barge In

You can configure whether or not the IP phone allows an incoming intercom call to interrupt an active call. The “Allow Barge In” parameter controls this feature. When you enable the this parameter, which is the default value, an incoming intercom call takes precedence over any active call, by placing the active call on hold and automatically answering the intercom call. When you disable this parameter, and there is an active call, the phone treats an incoming intercom call like a normal call and plays the call warning tone. "Allow Barge In" is enabled by default.
