How InterCom OneWay Works
InterCom OneWay/Speakerphone
The InterCom function enables an announcement to a single system telephone or to all system
telephones in a group from any internal telephone without someone having to actively accept
a call (for example, in a doctor's office).
If the InterCom destination is a single system telephone, the caller can switch on the micro-
phone in addition to the loudspeaker (hands-free calling) so that a person nearby can speak
with the caller using this intercom system.
How InterCom OneWay Works
The InterCom OneWay process runs as follows:
• According to the InterCom destination, either a single system telephone or all system
telephones in a group that have the InterCom function are called.
Note: The only system telephones in the group that are called are those
which are available for a conversation, e.g. those that are not busy. This
means the individual members of the group do not need to be logged into the
group. They are still called if they are logged off from the group.
• Depending on InterCom destination is involved, after a short ring, either a single system
telephone or all the system telephones in the group automatically take the call.
• The announcement is performed.
Note: For security reasons, the announcement is limited to 120 seconds to
prevent possible misuse of this function (for example, eavesdropping from
distant rooms).
• At the end of 120 seconds the connection is automatically interrupted. If the InterCom desti-
nation is a single system telephone, the connection can be maintained by picking up the
system telephone's receiver before the 120 seconds elapses.
