Numeric
Keypad
The numeric keypad is used to dial telephone numbers and make function selections. The
numeric keypad includes 12 standard dialing keys including the star (
) and the pound (#) keys.
RCL
(Recall) key The
RCL
key is used for the storing and recalling of repertory dialing numbers. See "Program
Speed Dialing Numbers" on page 14.
OVERRIDE
key
If you connect the TS52PRO to a telephone line carrying high speed data such as ADSL and you
put the test set into Talk mode, the test set will detect the data, it will lock out, and will not go
off-hook to protect the data. If you want to go off-hook anyway, you can override the lockout
by pressing the
OVERRIDE
(
#
) key.
LNR
(Last
Number Redial)
key
The
LNR
key redials the number most recently dialed. See "Last Number Redial" on page 14.
STORE/PROG
key
The
STORE/PROG
key is used for storing speed dialing numbers and for programming special
test set functions.
FLASH/PAUSE
key
(Hook-
Flash)
This is a dual function key. It performs the
FLASH
function when the test set is in Talk mode. It
performs the
PAUSE
function when the test set is in Monitor mode. The
FLASH
function is not
available in Monitor mode and the
PAUSE
function is not available in Talk mode.
If the test set is in Talk mode and is off-hook and you press the
FLASH/PAUSE
key, the test set
will generate a flash signal. The factory default flash duration is 600ms, however the duration of
the flash signal can be varied by the user. For configuring the test set to generate a flash
duration other than 600ms, see "Hook Flash Duration" on page 15.
The
PAUSE
function is available when storing speed dial numbers in Monitor mode. When
entering a speed dial number, if you press the
FLASH/PAUSE
key, a 4 second pause will be
inserted into the number you are entering. This is useful when you want to use speed dialing to
dial out through a PBX. To dial out through a PBX, typically you manually dial 9, then wait for
the PBX to connect you to an outside line, then you manually dial the rest of the number. The
PAUSE
function removes the need to manually dial when dialing through a PBX. For example, if
you have entered 9 PAUSE 2345678 into one of the speed dial memories, when you recall this
number, the test set will automatically dial a 9, then it automatically waits for the pause
duration of 4 seconds giving the PBX time to connect to an outside line, then it automatically
dials the remaining digits 2345678. If you need a delay longer than 4 seconds, press the
PAUSE
key more than once when entering a number into memory. Example: if you press the
PAUSE
key
two times in a row, you will get an 8 second pause.
PULSE
key
The
PULSE
key switches the test set between tone and pulse dialing. The
PULSE
key is active only
when the test set is off-hook. Any time the test set goes off-hook, it is automatically set to tone
dialing. Once off-hook, press the
Shift
(
STORE PROG
) key and then the
PULSE
key to change the
dialing mode to pulse dialing.
