Incoming Intercom Call Features
Incoming Intercom
By default, the IP phone allows incoming intercom calls to be automatically
answered without having to set up an Icom key on your phone. The phone
automatically plays a warning tone when it receives an incoming intercom call. It
also mutes the microphone. If the intercom call comes into the phone while an active
call is already present, the phone puts the active call on hold and answers the
intercom call.
You can change the behavior of how the phone handles incoming intercom calls by
enabling/disabling specific parameters using the Aastra Web UI. The following table
describes these features.
Microphone Mute
You can mute or unmute the microphone on the IP phone for intercom calls made by
the originating caller. If you want to mute the intercom call, you enable this feature. If
you want to unmute (or hear the intercom call), you disable this feature.
"

" is enabled by default.

Features in
Aastra Web UI
Description
Microphone Mute
Allows you to enable or disable the microphone on the
IP phone for Intercom calls made by the originating
caller.
Auto Answer
Allows you to enable or disable the IP phone to
automatically answer an Intercom call. If auto-answer is
enabled on the IP phone, the phone plays a tone (if
"
Play Warning Tone
" is enabled) to alert the user
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.
Note:
Your Administrator can set a time period delay before
the phone automatically answers. Contact your System
Administrator for more information.
Play Warning Tone
Allows you to enable or disable a warning tone to play
when the phone receives an incoming intercom call on
an active line.

incoming intercom calls while the phone is on an active
call.
