HANDLING AN INCOMING TELEPHONE CALL DURING AN INTERCOM CALL
During an intercom call, if a telephone call comes in, both users are alerted
as follows:
Handset: Receives a ringing tone. To take the call, press TALK/callback. (The
intercom connection is discontinued.)
Base Unit: Speaker rings and the new message/in use indicator blinks. To
take the line, press the SPEAKER button.
USING INTERCOM WHILE YOU HAVE A TELEPHONE CALL
During a telephone call, you can use the Intercom Paging function to page
the other unit and set up a private (2-way) intercom conversation with
another user, meanwhile placing the telephone call on hold. Or, you can
create a 3-way conversation between the telephone caller, the base unit, and
the handset. You can also transfer the telephone call to the opposite unit.
