Talk Key
The TALK key is used in intercom, telephone, or page mode to manually switch the
voice direction when using the speaker/microphone. In intercom mode it is used to switch
from listen to talk. Pressing the TALK key during telephone hands-free speaker phone
operation switches the ATEL to push-to-talk operation and manually controls the voice
direction. Pressing the TALK key during a page switches the ATEL from hands-free
operation to push-to-talk operation to provide a means of muting voice when released.
While programming speed dial strings, the TALK key can insert a one second pause in
the dialing sequence. See
Programming the Dedicated Function Keys , page 15, Calling a
Speaker Station , page 25, and Emergency Paging All Rooms , page 48 for more information.
Speaker Phone Key
The SPKR. PHONE key is used for intercom, telephone, or page operation when the
speaker/microphone combination is desired. See
Calling a Speaker Station , page 25,
Calling a Telephone , page 31, and Paging , page 48, for additional information. Pressing
the SPKR. PHONE key while the handset is in the cradle and the unit is idle places the
ATEL off-hook and into speaker/microphone operation, ready for dialing. Pressing the
SPKR PHONE key while the handset is off-hook switches the ATEL to speaker/micro-
phone operation, regardless of the current state of the ATEL.
Programmable Dedicated Function Keys
The dedicated function keys provide easy one-button access to common System functions.
They are programmed at the factory to the default settings. The settings can be changed at
any time, however this manual assumes that these default settings have not been changed.
If they have, the keys will operate differently than described. It is recommended that any
reprogramming of these keys be written down in the chart provided in
Appendix B on
page 79 for future reference. To customize these keys see Programming the Dedicated
Function Keys on page 15.
EMERGENCY
The EMERGENCY key initiates emergency voice pages to all speakers or to any combi-
nation of speaker zones. Pressing this button automatically dials 70, which is the factory
default setting to access emergency paging functions. The factory default setting also re-
quires you to then press the # key to initiate page access (this requirement can be changed
by System programming). See
Paging beginning on page 48 for full instructions.
TONE
The TONE key initiates or cancels tone distribution through the System speakers. The
tone type is user selectable and can be distributed to all speakers, any combination of
speaker zones, or any combination of individual room speakers. Pressing this button auto-
matically dials 71, which is the factory default setting to access tone distribution. See
Distributing Tones on page 55 for full instructions.
