Using Voice Announce ___________________

The Voice Announce feature may be used to provide hands-free call announcing of screened calls or station-level paging when your phone is on-hook. Incoming calls that meet specific predefined criteria (see page 40) can be answered automatically by the speakerphone. The microphone can be automatically disabled for announcing only, or enabled to allow two-way conversations. You can enable or disable Voice Announce at any time.

Enabling/Disabling

When the phone is idle, the display will show the current Voice Announce state.

The Voice Announce state is shown only if Voice Announce keys have been set up as explained on page 40.

Press the softkey beneath the VA display to enable or disable Voice Announce.

Receiving Voice Announce Calls

Calls selected for voice announcing will be answered automatically. You and the caller will hear a double beep if your microphone is muted, or a single beep if your microphone is enabled. The call will disconnect when the caller hangs up. After the call has been answered, you can pick up the handset for a private conversation, turn muting on or off, press the Spkr key to disconnect, and perform other normal call operations. Voice Announce is disabled when you are on an active call with the handset, headset, or speakerphone.

CAUTION – If Call Announce is enabled for a calling directory number, the caller should not transfer calls unscreened (blind) to your telephone, otherwise the transferred call will be answered using Voice Announce.
