Single-Line Telephones

■
A display on a single-line telephone will not show Caller ID information, system messages, or
Caller ID Call Logging information.
■
A speaker on a single-line telephone is not a system integrated speaker; therefore, it cannot
receive “voice” type calls, such as a group page.
Feature Telephones
6
A feature telephone is a single-line telephone that has
f
buttons in addition to the regular
12-key dialpad. For example, there are feature telephones that have programmable Auto Dial
buttons, last number
R
buttons,
h
buttons, and built-in speakers. You can use most of the
system’s dial-code features from a feature telephone, and program them onto a feature telephone
button. However, there are some limitations to what these telephones can do.
The capabilities of a feature telephone are in the telephone itself. For example, if you store a
number on a feature telephone’s Auto Dial button, that number is stored in the feature telephone.
(This is different from storing a number on a system telephone’s Auto Dial button. When you
program a button on a system telephone, the number is actually stored in the control unit.)
Similarly, when you press a
h
button on a feature telephone, the call is held at the telephone
itself. (Callers do not hear the system’s Music-On-Hold. Other telephones in the system cannot
see that the call is on hold; it appears as a busy line.)
If you want to program an outside number on a feature telephone’s Auto Dial button, you must
add a 9 and one or more pauses (if available) before each outside number. (The 9 gets an outside
line, and each pause allows a few seconds to get an outside dial tone.)
The feature telephone’s last number
R
button may not work for an outside call. To redial the
last number, use the system’s Last Number Redial feature by pressing
#05
