Mute/Re-Call
Muting Office Sounds To A Caller
If you are talking to an outside party and want others in your office to take part in the call,
you can use the speakerphone. Those in the room and the outside party can speak to
and hear each other.
On occasion, however, you might want to confer with someone in your office while
talking to an outside party without that party hearing your discussion. For example, you
want to confer with your supervisor as the outside party is trying to negotiate a price.
SPIRIT has a “mute” feature that allows you to hear the outside party (on the receiver
or speakerphone), but s/he cannot hear you or the sounds around you.
ACTION OUTCOME
1. Press the MUTE button. The light above the MUTE/HFAI button
will go on. You will hear the outside
party, but s/he will not hear you.
Turn the mute feature off by pressing the MUTE button again.
Re-Calling Without Redialing
If “the boss” were to walk in while you were on the phone to an outside party just now
you might tell the person on the other end of the line, “I’ll call you back in a few
minutes.” When the boss leaves, and you’re about to re-call that person, your phone
remembers the number (provided you manually dialed the call originally and you have
made no manually dialed calls in between). To use the Last Number Redial feature of
the SPIRIT system:
ACTION OUTCOME
1. Press the MEMORY button. The speakerphone will turn on
automatically. (If you want to use the
receiver, just lift it.)
2. Dial “0” (zero).
You will reach the number you last
dialed on the phone.
