3.5Making A Subdued Off-Hook Voice Announcement (SOHVA)

To make a SOHVA announcement using the preprogrammed SOHVA button,

1.Make intercom call and hear busy tone.

2.Decide whether to interrupt.

3.If you decide not to interrupt the called party, hang up.

4.To interrupt, press preprogrammed SOHVA button and hear several quick tone bursts.

5.Make announcement (busy tone means the called telephone is in speakerphone mode and you cannot make announcement, system programming has denied your SOHVA, or the called party has blocked your SOHVA).

6.Wait on line for reply (either verbal or LCD reply).

NOTE: You cannot control how the called party receives the announcement. This depends on whether the party is using a headset and on the programming of his or her station. For example, if the called party has set the station to forward to voice mail or to another station not in the SOHVA group, he or she will not receive your announcement.
