ton (or Call button) to speak handsfree. You are connected to the caller. Executive Dis-
play, Professional Display, and Model 8560 phone users have the same menu button
options as described for a ringing intercom call.
Single line endpoints: When you hear a page announcing that a call is holding at your
endpoint, lift the handset (at your endpoint) and enter the Individual Hold feature code
(336). You are connected to the caller.
Placing Intercom Calls
When placing an intercom call, begin dialing before the Dial Initiation timer expires. If the
timer expires, the system drops the connection and sends reorder tones.
To place an intercom call:.
1. For all Inter-Tel endpoints:
To use the handset: Lift the handset. If the endpoint has a display it shows ENTER
EXTENSION NUMBER.
To use the speakerphone: Skip to step 2 (begin dialing). The Speaker button lights.
The display shows ENTER EXTENSION NUMBER.
Executive Display, Professional Display, and Model 8660 or 8662: Lift the handset
or begin dialing as described above. The display shows ENTER EXTENSION NUM-
BER. You may press one of the following menu buttons:
— IC DIRECTORY: Press this button to use the Intercom Directory feature. Refer to
page 227 for instructions.
— OUTSIDE CALL: If you would rather make an outside call, press this button and
refer to the instructions on page 186.
Single line phones: Lift the handset. (If the DTMF decoders are busy, you hear
silence. Hang up and try again.)
2. Dial an extension number. The number can be 0 for the Attendant, an endpoint exten-
sion number, or a hunt group pilot number. Display endpoints show the number dialed.
If you dial too slowly, the Inter-digit timer may expire and you will hear reorder tones.
One of the following will occur:
a. If calling a handsfree Inter-Tel endpoint, speak after you hear a double tone. The
display shows IC TO <username>.
b. If placing a private call or calling a single line endpoint, a hunt group, or an
Inter-Tel endpoint with handsfree disabled, you hear repeating double tones until
the call is answered. The display shows CALL RINGING FOR <username>.
When the call is answered, the display shows IC TO <username>. Executive Dis-
play, Professional Display, and Model 8560 endpoint users can press one of the
following menu buttons while the call is ringing:
— LEAVE MESSAGE: This button appears only if you have called a station.
Press this button to leave a message waiting indication at the station. Refer to
page 180 for details.
— LEAVE VOICE MAIL: This button appears only if the called station has a
Voice Mailbox. Press this button to call the station’s Voice Mailbox.
NOTE
