feature buttons

For disconnecting from a call or dropping the last party
added to a conference call.

When the voice terminal is initially powered up, the
green light next to [

Test

] flashes if the link with the

PBX is not (or not yet) operational. The light changes to

steady green when the voice terminal is able to

communicate with the PBX, and then goes off after a

short period of time. After the voice terminal is powered

up, you can press [

Test

] to test the lights and the

display on your voice terminal.

For setting up conference calls. This button is labeled

[

Conf

] .

A blue button which can be used to access two additional
features (when [

Shift

] is active, the red light next to the

button is on):

When used with [

Hold

] , you can select a

personalized ring from among eight available
patterns.

When used with [

Speaker

] , you can perform an

acoustic test of the environment and adjust the
speakerphone to the surrounding acoustic
environment for optimal performance (for the
built-in speakerphone option only).

For transferring a call to another voice terminal.

For adjusting the volume of the following:

The speakerphone or speaker when a call is in
progress using the 2-way speakerphone or 1-way
speaker

The handset receiver level while a call is in progress
using the handset

The tone ringer when the speaker is off and either
the handset is inactive or the tone ringer is active

Note: When the speaker is active, the ringer volume is
automatically reduced to a low setting. The volume is
restored when the speaker is turned off.

Remember: The Volume control button on your voice
terminal does not control the volume level of adjunct
equipment.

At least three of these 10 buttons are devoted to
incoming and outgoing calls (call appearances) and

are labeled with an extension number; the remaining

buttons can also be call appearance buttons, or they can

access features (feature buttons) and are therefore

labeled with a feature name.
