I have the intercom working great on all the phones, I would like to have the one in my daughters room to be used mainly as a baby monitor. When we press the assigned button for her room there is a loud beep/tone before switching over to Mic/Spk. Is there a way to turn off that sound so it doesn't startle her if we turn it on late at night?

Thanks,

Paul
 
No way to turn off the announce tone. You COULD disconnect the speaker inside the phone - but then you'd never hear the phone ring. You could also get some 3rd party device to work - but that gets into $.

Just turn the volume of the phone in the baby's room all the way down - both speaker volume and ringer volume. Then when you voice intercom into there, it will be so low as to not disturb her.
 
open the phone and unplug the speaker (careful phone won't ring either then)

Thanks for the responses. I'll be using it (for now) strictly as a baby monitor so I won't need to hear the phone ring or even dial out for now. If I turn the volume down will I be able to hear her? I would prefer not to disconnect the speaker if I don't have to but if that's the only viable scenerio it's not a problem.

Thanks,

Paul
