To respond to an Auto Answered call:
In Idle mode, all incoming calls ring for the amount of time specified in the Auto Answer
Delay. See “Intercom Auto Answer” on page 88. After the last ring, a two-second
notification screen appears, and you hear a warning tone. Talk after the tone.
If you do not want the Deskset to automatically answer the call, you can press IGNORE
to send the call to the Intercom Call Forward–No Answer target (see “Call Forward–No
Answer” on page 31).
If there are multiple incoming Intercom calls, Auto Answer applies to the first call.
