The following instructions are for using basic features associated with placing emer-
gency, intercom, and outside calls. You can also use the Station and System speed dial
features when placing a call (see
page 37 ).
Placing Emergency Calls
You do not have to tap the Outgoing Call access code ( ) or OUTGOING to dial an
emergency service number. In an emergency, dial the appropriate emergency service
number directly (
U.S. or / Eur.).
Placing Intercom Calls
An intercom call is a call placed to another subscriber in the organization.
To place an intercom call: Dial the subscriber’s extension number. When using Auto
Answer (see
page 32 ), speak after the intercom (IC) confirmation appears.
If the extension is busy, the following feature options are available:
•
Camp-on to the busy extension until it is available (see below).
• Place an Off-Hook Voice Announce (see page 35 ).
• Queue for the subscriber (see page 35 ).
• Leave a text message (see page 47 ).
• Record a voice mail message (see page 47 ).
Using Camp-on
Camp-on allows you to stay on the line and wait for a busy extension to become
available.
To use Camp-on: Stay on the line until the extension becomes available. Until the
call is answered or sent to voice mail, the extension rings periodically and the display
indicates the waiting call.
IMPORTANT
Contact your system administrator to make sure your system
is correctly configured for emergency service before using
your endpoint. If an emergency call phone number is dialed from
a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) endpoint located at a remote site
that is not correctly configured, the call will be placed from the loca-
tion where the system is installed instead of the location where the
emergency call was placed. See
page 12 for more information on
validating your location for emergency calls.
