When you receive an OHVA and secure OHVA is ON, you will hear the
announcement in the handset receiver, if you are using the handset. If
secure OHVA is OFF then you will hear the announcement on the speaker,
if you are talking on the handset. If you are using the speakerphone the
announcement will always be heard through the speaker.
To make an off-hook voice announcement:
•
Dial the extension number or press the
DSS
key.
•
When you receive a busy signal, press the
OHVA
key.
•
After the attention tone, begin speaking.
•
Finish the call by replacing the handset or pressing the
ANS/RLS
key.
•
Press the flashing
CALL
button on your keyset. This will place the orig-
inal party on hold and allow you to talk to the announcing party.
•
To return to your first party, press the key corresponding to your original
call. This will disconnect the OHVA call.
NOTES:
1.
When you are voice announcing to a station close to you, use the hand-
set to avoid an echo effect.
2.
You cannot off-hook voice announce to single line telephones.
If your keyset is associated with a DCS 32 Button Add-On Module, you can
receive Executive OHVA calls. Executive Off-Hook Voice Announce allows
you to engage in conversation on your keyset and simultaneously receive
and reply handsfree to an OHVA through your DCS 32 Button Add-On Mod-
ule (AOM). Use caution because the conversation through the AOM may
possibly be heard by the caller on the keyset. When you receive an execu-
tive OHVA through your AOM:
•
Reply by speaking in the direction of the microphone in the AOM unit.
•
Adjust the volume with the
VOLUME
keys on the AOM unit.
•
Press the
SPK
key on the AOM to disconnect the announcing party.
NOTES:
1.
Executive off-hook voice announce can only be accomplished when an
AOM is attached to your phone.
2.
If the
MUTE
key on the AOM is lit, you must press the AOM’s
SPK
key
to answer the OHVA call.
OHVA BLOCK
Your keyset can be programmed with an OHVA Block (
BLOCK
) key. Press-
ing this key will prevent anyone from making an OHVA to you until you press
the button again and cancel the blocking.
