INTERCOM CALLS
CALLING OTHER STATIONS
• Dial the extension number or group number.
• Wait for the party to answer. If you hear a brief tone burst instead of ring-
back tone, the station you called is set for Voice Announce or Auto
Answer. Begin speaking immediately after the tone.
• Finish the call by replacing the handset or pressing the ANS/RLS or the
MONITOR key if you are using a 7B phone.
NOTES:
1. If you have a DSS key assigned to an extension or station group, you
may press this key instead of dialing the number. If you are using a 7
Button Set you must pick up the handset to speak to the calling party.
2. If the Hot Keypad feature has been turned off, you must first lift the hand-
set or press the SPK or the MONITOR key if you are using a 7B phone
before you begin dialing.
