receive and/or originate capability to it. By properly
assigning SOHVA groups to station ports, the
programmer can open or block SOHVA paths between
stations.

Subdued Off-Hook Voice Announce
With the secure off-hook voice announce (SOHVA)
feature, a user can make a secure announcement
from one station to another station that is off-hook and
busy on a call. A station being operated in a
handsfree mode cannot receive a SOHVA. With
SOHVA, the caller delivers the call and the user
receiving the call responds to it in a secure manner
that prevents the distant party from hearing either the
announcement or the response. The system
precedes the announcement with a tone alert that it
delivers to the handset receiver of the called
telephone. It also supplies a tone to the announcing
caller to alert them that they are making a SOHVA call.
A user can respond to the SOHVA announcement
either verbally or non-verbally. He or she either
effects a verbal response by pressing and holding the
MUTE button and speaking into the handset or effects
a non-verbal response by pressing a pre-programmed
button to send a message to be shown on the display
of the announcing station (if it is an LCD
speakerphone). The system automatically
disconnects the announcing station after it delivers the
response message to it (and displayed if an LCD
speakerphone). Stations that have the voice
announce blocking feature turned on cannot receive a
SOHVA. A programmer can use station class of
service programming to disable the SOHVA feature at
a station port if desired.

Off-Hook Voice Announce Originate
This feature allows a telephone user to program a
button at his or her station that she or he must press
before delivering a SOHVA call. This SOHVA enabled
button allows a caller, after hearing a busy signal, to
decide whether to interrupt the called party in a
SOHVA manner. If the caller decides that the called
should be interrupted, the caller can press the button
and complete the SOHVA call. This button, along with
SOHVA groups, allows system users greater control of
the callers
that
are allowed to make SOHVA calls and
of the situations in which they are allowed to make
them.
The following examples may help you to understand
how to use SOHVA.

Off-Hook Voice Announce (SOHVA)
The programmer can program the ability of station
ports to originate and/or receive SOHVA calls by
assigning SOHVA calling groups to station ports. This
means that he or she can arrange certain station ports
together for SOHVA calling between one another while
excluding other station ports in the system from this
group.
Example 1:
Allow station port 10 to originate SOHVA
messages to all stations in the system and allow those
stations the ability to originate SOHVA messages to
each other but not to station port 10. Assign group 1
to station port 10 and assign group 2 to all other
station ports.
Example
2: Allow station ports 14 and 15 to receive
and originate SOHVA calls between each other but
deny both receive and originate capability from any
other system stations. Assign group 8 to both station
port 14 and station port 15. Do not assign group 8 to

The system provides eight different SOHVA groups
that are fixed into a variety of SOHVA receive/originate
configurations. A programmer can assign one SOHVA
any other station port
