Hi,

Could someone help me understand how the group listening feature should work
on a BCM It is my understanding that it is a feature so you can put the
person on the other end of the phone onto speaker so someone standing behind
you will be able to listen to the conversation. However, this shoud not
enable the microphone on the phone, only the handset microphone should be
enabled, but this seems not to be the case so if the person behind you is
speaking the person on the phone will hear them.

Help is appreciated.

Regards
Marc

that is the issue.

How it works is actually how most other features work in the Nortel
system. It's all based on the "PFM Principle".

Really though, in the group listen mode, what is said on the other end
is broadcast through the speaker on the near end. What the other person
hears on the other end comes from the transmitter in the handset on the
near end. The far end can hear what's said if the person speaking on
the near end is close enough to the handset transmitter. If the person
standing behind you is loud enough, he can be heard on the far end. Is
that clear enough?
