Using the Programmable Keys / Line Keys
There are eight Programmable Keys on the V8 Featurephone, 16 on the V16 Featurephone and 32
on the Expansion Console. The keys on the Featurephones are pre-programmed as Line Keys. Each
Line Key is associated with a ‘Line’, the first key with Line 1 etc., (provided the system has lines
equipped). Pressing Line Key 1 selects Line 1, returning a dial tone and allowing you to dial an
external telephone number. The Line Keys incorporate a light, which is lit on all Featurephones
when the associated Line is selected. The light is green on the Featurephone using the Line and red
on all other Featurephones. When a call on a line is put on hold the associated Line Key light flashes
on all Featurephones, (unless the system programming is changed from the default as detailed on
page 89).
By default, Programmable Keys select available lines on the system, should you wish to allocate
alternative functions to these keys this can be facilitated using Key Programming. (See page 47).
Using the Hands-free Key
You can use the Hands-free Key to have a conversation without having to lift the handset. Press the
Hands-free Key to go off-hook, as if the handset were lifted with the Featurephone speaker and
microphone replacing the handset. Pressing the key again goes back on-hook, as if the handset were
replaced.
You may also use the Featurephone with a headset. (See: 'Using your Featurephone with a headset on
Page 26')
The Hands-free key has a red light, which is lit whenever the Hands-free Key has been pressed to go
off-hook or to turn on the speaker.
Note: Pressing the Hands-free Key at any time during programming exits the programming menus
and returns the 'Display' to the Idle Menu.
Using the Volume Key
•
To adjust the speaker volume, press the Volume
Key when in Hands-free Mode.
•
To adjust the handset receiver volume, press the
Volume
Key when in Handset Mode.
•
To adjust the ringing volume, press the Volume Key when the Featurephone is ringing.
Reducing the volume to the minimum setting will mute the ringing.
Note: The Volume level increases/decreases by one step for every press of the Volume Key.
Changing the volume level in one mode does not affect the setting in the other mode.
Using the Secrecy Key
The Secrecy Key can be pressed when you are using the handset or in Hands-free Mode. When
pressed, the other person on the call cannot hear you. The Secrecy Key has a red light, which is lit
when Secrecy is active.
The Ringing / Message Waiting Light:
There is a red light on the top right-hand corner of the Featurephone. This light flashes when there
is an incoming call. It also lights up when a voice message has been left in your Voice Mailbox.
