There are two methods for making an intercom call. One causes the

sound out at the called telephone (voice-first). Your installer can set 
the system to deliver either tone-first or voice-first calling.
•  To manually cause the other telephone to ring (tone calling),

3.3  Automatic Dialing
This feature provides one- or two-button speed dialing using pro-
grammable buttons at which you have previously stored numbers.  
Two levels of number storage are available at each storage location, 
and you can use one or both levels as needed. Further, since you 
usually store a line choice as part of a speed dial number, line 
selection is automatic with speed dialing.
There are two types of speed dial numbers: (1) numbers that you store 
for your own use (personal speed dial numbers), and (2) numbers that 
the system attendant stores for everyone’s use (system speed dial 
numbers).
•  To automatically dial a  number stored at one of the 
programmable buttons on your station, choose one of the 
following:
—Press the programmed speed dial button, or press SHIFT and 
the  programmed speed dial button.
Note:  The following instructions assume a voice-first default 
setting. Any user can change a call to a tone signaling for that 
call simply by pressing the INTERCOM button again after 
dialing the extension number or by pressing the DSS/BLF but
-
ton again.

dial codes on some systems can be either *100 - *599, *000 -
