Voice Announce to Busy allows MLX and analog multiline telephone users to
receive inside calls on their speakerphones, even if they are on a call. A telephone
user can turn off all incoming voice announcements, calls made from an SA
Voice or ICOM Voice button on another extension, or group pages.
When Voice Announce to Busy is on at an extension and the handset at that
extension is in use, an inside caller can reach that extension by speaking on its
speakerphone. When Voice Announce to Busy is turned off at an extension, no
caller can turn on that extension’s speakerphone. However, the user at that
extension can still make calls and speak on the speakerphone.
Voice Announce to Busy requires two communications channels between the
control unit and the telephone, one for voice-announced calls and one for ringing
calls. Turning off the feature at an extension converts the second,
voice-announced, channel into a ringing channel. Calls made to the extension as
voice-announced calls arrive as ringing calls instead.
For an MLX telephone, Voice Announce to Busy is automatically available
because the MLX extension jack provides two communications channels. For an
analog multiline telephone, enabling the feature requires assigning two
consecutive extension jacks to the telephone. The extension assigned to the
odd-numbered jack is the telephone’s extension; the extension assigned to the
