Microphone Mute

MICROPHONE MUTE

Whether handsfree or using the handset, you can temporarily turn off your microphone while
on a call. The call is still connected; you can hear the other party, but they cannot hear you.
Since the call is not placed on hold, no timer is activated. The

button is lit when the

microphone is muted; the light will go off when you press the

button to re-enable the

microphone.

If you receive an off-hook voice announce call (see

page 187

), you can press the

but-

ton while speaking to the off-hook voice announce caller to mute the handset microphone. The
caller on the handset will not hear you or the OHVA caller. When you press

again, the

handset microphone is re-enabled.

You cannot mute the microphone on your phone while your call is on hold at another station.

NOTE:

If you receive complaints from IP phone users about losing audio on muted calls, there

may be a firewall issue. Contact your local Inter-Tel dealer for assistance.
