Off-Hook Signaling

Off-Hook Signaling helps important callers get through.

While you are busy on a call,

Off-Hook Signaling lets you know when another caller is tying to get through. Off-Hook Signaling helps your important callers get through, without waiting in line for you to become free. After you hear an Off-Hook Signal, you can use another system feature to process your current call (such as Hold or Park). You can then answer the waiting call.

You can receive Off-Hook Signals while you are busy on the handset. There are two types of Off-Hook Signaling:

●

Off-Hook Ringing

Off-Hook Ringing is muted ringing from your phone’s speaker.

Off-Hook Ringing occurs only for waiting outside calls.

●

Camp-On Tones

Camp-On Tones are two beeps in your handset receiver.

Camp-On Tones can occur for both waiting Intercom and outside calls.

Also refer to the Voice Over feature.

To adjust the volume of Off-Hook Ringing:

1.

Press or while you hear the muted ringing.
