Making Calls
42 Comdial October, 02
3.7 Sending Subdued Off-Hook Voice
Announcements
You can make a private voice announcement to another station that is
off-hook and busy on a call if the installer has arranged the system to
provide this feature.
• Make a SOHVA announcement using the SOHVA button as
follows:
1. Make an intercom call and hear busy tone. If called station is
on outside line, ring-back tone is heard, but SOHVA is still
available.
2. Select SOHVA and hear several quick tone bursts.
3. Make the announcement.
4. Wait on line for reply (either verbal or LCD reply). If your
station returns to idle, the called party has blocked your
SOHVA.
Note If the called station is currently in speakerphone mode or
if the SOHVA has been denied by system programming, inter-
active button selection for SOHVA will not be available.
