Automatic System Answer Mode (#121)

If Automatic System Answer Mode is set to Hold, calls are placed on hold at extension 10; however, any extension with access to the line on which the call is held can retrieve the call.

If Automatic System Answer Mode is set to Hold and a call is placed on hold for longer than one minute, the system generates a short Hold Reminder Tone at extension 10. This tone sounds once every minute until the held call is retrieved, or until the caller hangs up.

If Automatic System Answer Mode is set to Hold or Disconnect, you can intercept a call while the message is playing—the light for the call will be steady red. To intercept the call, press the line button and lift the handset. The message stops playing when the call is retrieved.

If Automatic System Answer Mode is set to Ring, the line button on which an outside call rings shows green flash continuously, even while the system answers the call and plays the Automatic System Answer greeting. To answer the call, lift the handset. If the message was playing, it stops automatically.
