The "Menu Bar" or "Microphone Bar" is the horizontal button at the bottom of the keypad
(FIG. 31). This button has an LED on it. When you press this button the DMS keypad transitions
directly to the
Main
page (FIG. 32). This occurs regardless of which page is currently active and
being viewed. There is one exception: if you are accepting an intercom call, the DMS will not
transition to the Main page. Instead, it transitions to the
Intercom Call-In-Progress
page (see
below).
The Menu Bar button is really a multi-purpose button. When not accepting and intercom call, it
transitions you to the Main page. When accepting an intercom call, it transitions to the Intercom
Call-In-Progress page (FIG. 60). This button is also used to terminate an intercom call. In this case
you are transitioned back to the Main page.
The Menu Bar button contains an LED. This LED is green whenever the microphone is active in an
intercom call or paging call. The only way to turn the microphone off and terminate the call is for
the Menu Bar button to be pressed by the caller or the callee.
The arrow buttons are also unique in the way they operate. On some pages they are used for
scrolling up and down through a list of items. On other pages they are used to adjust the volume
level and temperature levels. Since these buttons are context sensitive, please read the descriptions
of each page carefully to understand how these buttons affect control on that page.
