Start with A1, make or receive a real call, the LED on the SX8500 turns ON solid, then simply press the
button on your telephone, the Music will be heard to the caller and the LED on the SX8500 will start to BLINK , to
return to the call just re-select that line. (Be sure to allow 1 or 2 seconds before putting a call on HOLD).
If it did not work hang up and try it again 2 or 3 times.
A2: if after 2 -3 times it is not working hang up and change the switch to A2 and try it 2-3 times. A3: this setting
works better on smaller offices with just a few phones, it is not as powerful as A1 or A2, if your phones work fine in
