Some older models of analog multiline telephones do not have built-in
speakerphones. People with these telephones can still answer inside calls without
lifting the handset by using Auto Answer Intercom with an optional Hands-Free
Unit (HFU).
NOTE:
MLX telephone users can automatically answer calls on their
speakerphones if the Hands-Free Answer on Intercom button (HFAI) is
activated.
To activate Auto Answer Intercom, press the Auto Answer Intercom button. The
green LED next to the button turns on. The HFU turns on automatically when an
inside call is received.
To deactivate the feature, press the Auto Answer Intercom button again. The
green LED turns off, and the HFU does not automatically turn on when an
intercom call is received.
Mode Differences
0
When Auto Answer Intercom is activated in Hybrid/PBX mode and a call is
received on an SA button, the HFU turns on, even if the button is programmed for
Delay Ring or No Ring.
