Additional Features
Auto-Answer/Play Warning Tone
The auto-answer feature on the IP phone allows you to enable or disable automatic
answering for an Intercom call. If “Auto-Answer” is enabled, the phone
automatically answers an incoming intercom call. If “Play Warning Tone” is also
enabled, the phone plays a tone to alert you before answering the intercom call. If
“Auto-Answer” is disabled, the phone rejects the incoming intercom call and sends a
busy signal to the caller.
"
Auto-Answer" and " Play Warning Tone" are enabled by default.
Allow Barge In
You can configure whether or not the IP phone allows an incoming intercom call to
interrupt an active call. The “Allow Barge In” parameter controls this feature. When
you enable the this parameter, which is the default value, an incoming intercom call
takes precedence over any active call, by placing the active call on hold and
automatically answering the intercom call. When you disable this parameter, and
there is an active call, the phone treats an incoming intercom call like a normal call
and plays the call warning tone. "
Allow Barge In " is enabled by default.

matically answers. Contact your System Administrator for more infor-
mation.
