Changing the Way Calls Are Answered 

Your system administrator may have configured the system to let you choose 

the way incoming calls are handled.   

Temporarily Refusing Calls 

If you do not wish to be disturbed by calls, you can refuse incoming calls with 
the Do Not Disturb feature. Callers hear a busy signal and you receive no 

notification about incoming calls. You can, however, make outgoing calls.  

1.  On the Place a Call screen, select 

 

in the lower right corner of 

the screen. 

2.  Select On to set Do Not Disturb.  

While the system is not accepting calls, you see 

 in the lower right corner of the 

screen. This setting stays in effect until you change it. 

Answering Calls Automatically 

You can specify whether to answer calls automatically or to have the system 

announce incoming calls and wait for you to answer manually. 

Automatically answering calls is convenient, but it can create security issues. An 
unexpected caller could interrupt a meeting in progress or look at equipment and notes 
left in an empty room.  
 
To prevent incoming callers from overhearing a conversation not intended for them, you 
can choose to mute all automatically answered calls. 

1.  Select System from the Place a Call screen. 

2.  Select User Settings from the System screen. 

3.  If you want to automatically answer incoming point-to-point calls, scroll 

to Auto-Answer Point to Point, press 

, and select Yes. 

4.  If you want to automatically answer incoming multipoint calls, scroll to 

Auto-Answer Multipoint, press 

, and select Yes. 

5.  Press 

 Home to save your change and return to the Place a Call 

screen.
