Features Off-hook Call Announce (OCA)
♦
Speaker Off-hook Call Announce (SP-OCA) – lets callers make an announcement through the
speaker of an off-hook, busy digital phone. The called telephone must be equipped with optional
hardware.
When you receive an HS-OCA call while you are on another call, you hear a
short warning tone (optional), followed by an announcement. You are the
only one who hears the tone/announcement. The station [
210] sending the
HS-OCA is displayed on your LCD. Stations in the DND mode cannot receive OCA calls unless the
calling station is programmed for DND Override.
While on a speaker OCA call,
Mic
and
Microphn Cut-off
can be used to prevent an OCA caller
from listening to your conversation with the original party (see “Microphone Cut-Off” on Page 54).
➤
To make an OCA call (Voice First Signalling)
➤ Lift the handset and dial the [DN]. You hear a single tone (optional) or nothing and can talk to the
station (Automatic OCA).
Note If you receive busy tone, press
2
to OCA the station and talk. An
optional tone is heard at the busy station, indicating that you are
connected on an OCA call.
➤
To make an OCA call (Tone Signalling)
1. Lift the handset and dial the
[DN].
You may hear busy or ring tone.
2. If you hear busy tone, press
21
and speak to the called station
...or if you hear a ring tone,
press
12
and speak to the
called station.
If you hear busy or ring tone after dialling the first digit (2
or 1), disregard the tone and dial the second digit to OCA
the called telephone.
If you still hear a busy tone after dialling 21 or 12, the
called telephone is either busy on a speakerphone call or
does not have the OCA option set in system
programming. Either condition blocks OCA.
