2. Three Features For Easier Answering

Voice Call, Auto Answer, and Distinctive Ringing are three features that you can use to make answering calls easier and faster.

Voice Call

When you set your keyset to allow voice calls, intercom callers are connected immediately over the speakerphone, without requiring you to go off-hook. You will hear a single tone to alert you. Outside calls continue to ring at your exten- sion in the usual way, so too will blind transfer calls.

Note that when voice calls are allowed, no Call Forward instructions you have programmed will be followed. Do Not Disturb, however, will continue to oper- ate.

Auto Answer

Use the Auto Answer feature to select how incoming calls will be answered. With Auto Answer set to “off” you must press an appropriate feature key to answer an incoming call. This can be one of the following:

uAn ICM key (a feature key designated for intercom calls)

uA Trunk or Trunk Group key

uAn Overflow key (a feature key designated for all additional outside lines).

With Auto Answer set to “on” you can answer ringing calls by lifting the hand- set or pressing the Speaker key.

Distinctive Ringing

Distinctive Ringing allows you to choose from four different ring cadences to distinuguish your phone’s ring from that of others in your immediate area. The ring cadence you select works for all tones you hear on your keyset. See page 7 for a table of ring tones.
