Off-hook Call Announce
Off-hook Call Announce (OCA) enables you to complete a call to a busy digital 
telephone. Your telephone must be programmed to either announce automatically or to 
announce after you press a button on your dial pad. The destination telephone must be 
programmed to accept an OCA. The announcement may be delivered over the handset 
or the speaker.
Handset OCA can operate on any digital telephone. Speaker OCA requires the 
addition of a special circuit board inside the DKT speakerphone.
To make an OCA call

Automatic – If your telephone and the extension you are calling have been 
programmed for Automatic OCA, you can talk through the speaker of the 
destination telephone without hearing the busy tone and without dialing
