Microphone Mute
• Description
Microphone Mute lets a system phone user turn off their phone’s handsfree or handset
microphone at any time. When activated, Microphone Mute prevents the caller from
hearing conversations in the user’s work area. The user may turn off the microphone
while their telephone is idle, busy on a call or ringing. The microphone stays off until the
user turns it back on.
Conditions
None
Default Setting
Enabled (using MIC key).
• Programming
15-07-01: Programmable Function Keys
If an extension needs handset microphone mute, program a Handset
Transmission Mute key (code 40). To program a Mic Mute key, use code

call, while the Handset Mute key will mute the handset transmission on a
non-handsfree call.
