mode) or off-hook, when the line is active.

Steady red = another station is using this line.

Flashing red = a call is coming in on this line.

Wing green = your line is on hold.

Next to an intercom button:

Steady red with a quick flash = you are using your intercom.

Fluttering red = auto redial is in use.

others to receive when calling.

Above the HOLD button:

unclerstanding What The Lights Mean

Above the SPKR button:

On steady (with telephone on hook and busy) = speakerphone

mode active.

On steady (with telephone on hook and idle) = background

music turned on.

Above the MUTE button:

On steady = called party cannot hear your conversation.

5

Answering Outside Calls

A call that rings on an outside line sounds long single tone bursts

and lights the line status light. The light flashes red for any ringing

line.

When you hear outside ringing (long single ring bursts) and

observe a flashing light, answer the call as follows:

l press button of ringing line if flashing light is red,

l speak toward the telephone (lift handset if privacy is

desired),

q

l lift handset if you have ringing line preference.

Answering Intercom Calls

An intercom call is one that is made from one system telephone

to another. An intercom party can call you through your speaker

instead of ringing your telephone or an intercom party can ring

your telephone if they desire (intercom ringing sounds two short

ring bursts). Voice calls can be blocked. See the discussion titled

Blocking Voice Announced Calls

for details if you wish to use this

feature.

When you hear a short tone burst followed by a caller’s voice,

l speak toward the telephone to answer. Lift handset if

privacy is desired.

When you hear intercom ringing (two short ring bursts),

l press ITCM to talk. Lift handset if privacy is desired.

6

Using Your Telephone lo Answer c‘alls

Answering Calls At Monitored Stations

Your system may provide a station monitoring feature, which

allows you to monitor the status (idle, ringing, or busy) at other

stations. If your telephone has this feature, a BLF light will flash

whenever a DSS station is ringing. In this case, you can

answer

a call at a ringing DSS station by pressing the DSS button.

To answer a calI at a monitored telephone, proceed as follows:

l note flashing BLF light,

l press DSS button,

l speak toward telephone to answer call. Lift handset if

privacy is desired.

NOTE:

If you place the call

on

hold or

if you tran$er it to another

telephone,

the BLF

light turns off. You can retrieve the call, if

necessary, by pressing TAP.

Answering Night Transferred Calls

The system attendant can take action that transfers incoming calls

to a particular station or stations for off-hour ringing.

After the

attendant has set up this feature, you can answer an outside call

when it rings anywhere in the system.

When you hear ringing,

l press ITCM,

l dial80,

l speak toward telephone to answer call. Lift handset if

privacy is desired.

Using Your Telephone To Answer Calls

Making A Call Pick-Up

Often, several telephones are arranged together in a user group

by the system installer. If your telephone is so arranged, you can

answer calls that are ringing at other stations within your par-

ticular group. Also, you can answer a call that is ringing at any

telephone in the system if you know the telephone’s extension

number.

To answer a call that is ringing within your group,

l press

ITCM,

l dial#4,

l speak toward telephone to answer call. Lift handset if

privacy is desired.

To answer a call that is ringing at any telephone in the system,

l press

ITCM,

l dial * 4,

l dial extension number of ringing telephone,

l speak toward telephone to answer call. Lift handset if

privacy is desired.

Responding To A Secure Off-Hook

Voice Announcement

Your telephone can be set up to receive a Secure Off-Hook Voice

Announcement (SOHVA). This feature allows an intercom

caller to break into your call if you am using the handset. They

do this by making an announcement through your handset

receiver. This means that if you am on a speakerphone call, you

cannot receive a SOHVA call; however, you will hear a ring burst

and can go off-hook to receive a SOHVA call.

The Secure Off-Hook Voice Announcement consists of several

short tone bursts and then a message that you hear in your handset

receiver. The distant party that you am currently talking to cannot

[

hear the announcement made by the SOHVA caller.

[

8

You can respond to a SOHVA call in one of two ways:

l Verally : Press and hold MUTE button down and reply

by speaking into handset. Distant party cannot hear

response. Release button to return to distant party.

l Non-verbally: (Response Messaging): If the announcing

station has an LCD speakerphone, press MSG (message)

then press HVHLD (have them hold), TKMSG (take a

message), or CLBK (I will call back) to send the ap-

propriate message. Autodial buttons can be programmed

to use any of the 10 attendant-programmable LCD mes-

sages.

The message appears in the display of the telephone

making the SOHVA announcement and then that

telephone is automatically disconnected from your

telephone.

(If

the telephone to which you attempt to send

a non-verbal message is not an LCD telephone, that sta-

tion is immediately disconnectedfrom the call.)

You can also block a SOHVA to your station by pressing BLOCK

when the SOHVA is initiated. The SOHVA call is then discon-

nected.

Dialing Automatically

This feature provides one- or two-button autodialing using

programmable buttons at which you have previously stored num-

bers. Two levels of number storage are available at each storage

location. You can use one or both levels as needed. Further, a

line choice is usually stored as part of an autodial number so that

line selection is automatic with autodialing. Actual button

programming is discussed in a separate section of this user’s

guide. Refer to it when you are ready to store numbers at the

programmable buttons.

Speed dialing is autodialing using the keypad buttons. 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 are stored by the system attendant for everyone’s use (system

speed dial numbers).

To automatically dial a number (while telephone is on-hook),

l press preprogrammed button (line selection is usually a

part of the stored autodial or speed dial number),

q

l press HOLD then press preprogrammed button (to

choose number stored as a second choice at that

button).

Redialing

If the last number you have called is busy or is not answering, you

have several options for automatically redialing it. You can redial

it once, initiate a repeated redialing of it, or save it for later redial

using a preprogrammed saved number nxlial button. Refer to the

procedures given in the programming section of this user’s guide

to preprogram a saved number redial button.

To automatically redial the last dialed number one time,

l lift and replace handset,

11

Using Your Telephone To Make Calls

l use the telephone for some other function.

The system will save the first 16 digits of the last manually dialed

number so that it can be redialed later, however, subsequent

dialing activity overwrites any number the system has temporarily

saved. If you wish, you can permanently store one 16-digit

number at a time in this manner:

l to store the number, press SAVE;

l

to dial the stored number, press HOLD and then press

the SAVED NUMBER REDIAL button that was

preprogrammed for this purpose.

Using Line Groups

Some systems have telephone lines arranged into line groups that

are made available at the telephone instead of individual lines.

Your system administrator can tell you how your system is

arranged. When line groups are available, you may access them

for outside calling instead of pressing a line button to select a line

for use.

If your system has line groups, access them as follows:

l press ITCM,

l dial desired line group access code:

9 = line group 1

81= line group 2

82 = line group 3

Usina Your Telephone To Make Calls

Waiting For A Line (Queuing)

If all the lines in a line group are busy, you can place your

telephone in a queue to await an idle line in the line group.
