Description

 

 

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.
