Handsfree and Handsfree Answerback
Description
Handsfree
Handsfree allows a keyset user to process calls using the speaker and microphone in the telephone (instead
of the handset). Handsfree is a convenience for workers who don’t have a free hand to pick up the handset.
For example, a terminal operator could continue to enter data with both hands while talking on the phone.
Handsfree Answerback and Forced Intercom Ringing
Handsfree Answerback permits an extension user to respond to a voice-announced Intercom call by speak-
ing toward the phone, without lifting the handset. Like Handsfree, this is a convenience for workers who
don’t have a free hand to pick up the handset. Incoming Intercom calls alert with two beeps if the extension
has Handsfree Answerback — a single beep if it does not.
Forced Intercom Ringing causes an Intercom call to ring the destination extension. You can enable Forced
Intercom Ringing system-wide (for all extensions), or a user can dial a code to have their Intercom call ring
the destination.
Operation
- Talk over the phone Handsfree, using the built-in speaker and microphone.
