Using Intercom with External Telephone Calls
During a telephone call, you may use the intercom/paging function to page another handset
and have an off line, private (two-way) intercom conversation. You may also have a three-way
conversation between the external caller and the handsets, or you may transfer the external
telephone call to another handset.
NOTE: Before you intercom/page another handset, you must decide
whether you want to create a two-way or a three-way conversation.
