Call Announce
Note:
This feature is not fully supported at this time, however, this feature has been enabled by
some System Administrator’s by changing Wave Registry settings (see Tech Support).
If your System Administrator has enabled it, your phone system may be utilizing a feature
known as Call Announce. This feature announces the caller’s name over the phone speaker, then
allows you to choose what you want to do with the call: accept it, send it to voicemail, or
establish a conference call.
If Call Announced is enabled for your system, when you hear the call announce state the
caller’s name:
Press 1 to accept the call.
OR
Press 2 to send the call directly to VM.
Note:
The calling party will not know that you have rejected the call, since the call is then
treated exactly as if you weren’t answering your phone at all.
OR
Press 3 to send to voicemail and monitor.
Note:
This option is similar to pressing 2, except that it allows you to listen in on the caller
as he/she leaves a message. This option is like sending a call to voicemail and then using
Listen
softkey on digital phone.
OR
Press 4 to establish a conference with the current call.
Note:
This prompt and feature is only available on call waiting calls.
The prompt for this option mentions that if you hang up, the caller will be sent to
voicemail. However, if your phone is set up with another forward option when there is no
answer at your phone, that will be the action the phone will take.
