intraswitch calls). Set the
Internal Auto-Answer of Attd-Extended/Transferred Calls
field to
transferred or both.
•
Internal call from another node in a Distributed Communications System (DCS) configuration
when the origin of the call is known to be an internal, non-attendant telephone on that node
(includes redirected inter-DCS calls). Set the
Internal Auto-Answer of
Attd-Extended/Transferred Calls field to transferred or both.
•
Attendant-extended external calls. Set the
Internal Auto-Answer of Attd-Extended/Transferred
Calls
field to attd-extended or both.

IAA Feature Operations
With IAA, you can assign a single programmable feature button (IAA) to telephones. When the user
presses the IAA feature button, the button lamp lights and the system activates IAA. Pressing the same
button again deactivates IAA and turns off the status lamp. (Pressing the feature button has no effect on a
currently-active call or a ringing call.) The IAA button may be toggled on or off at any time, regardless of
the state of the telephone. Using the speakerphone to place calls does not affect the state of IAA.
The calling telephone receives a tone when its call is answered automatically by a telephone with IAA.
The called telephone receives a tone (a ring ping) and then goes off-hook when automatically answering
an IAA-eligible call. The answering telephone’s speaker and microphone are both turned on.
If a user has IAA active and is currently busy on a call or is in the process of dialing digits, subsequent
incoming calls are treated as if IAA were not activated.
Considerations
•
Users should always deactivate IAA when leaving the work area. Otherwise, incoming calls are
unintentionally answered by the unattended station, and do not go to coverage.
•
A 602A terminal is off-hook when the headset or speakerphone is connected. Therefore IAA
answers a call if all other call appearances are idle.
