Activating customized models
Telephone with a character display
Procedure 26 describes how to activate a customized model on a telephone
with a character display.
Procedure 26
Activating a customized telephone
1 Plug the telephone set into the jack and wait 20 seconds.
Note: The 20 second time interval is required for the system to
determine whether the set is new or if it is being relocated using the
Modular Telephone Relocation feature.
2 Lift the handset. If dial tone is not present, restore the handset
and wait 10 seconds.
Lift the handset and listen for dial tone. (Repeat this procedure
until dial tone is heard.)
If successful, the character display shows either
“MODEL? X”
(if the telephone relocation feature is not in use) or
“RELOC OR MODEL? X”
(if the telephone relocation feature is in use). “X” represents the default
model for the telephone that you are activating.
Note: If the prompt “MODEL X” is not displayed after lifting the
handset, disconnect the telephone from the wall jack, wait five
seconds, and re-insert the telephone into the jack. The telephone now
shows “MODEL X” when the handset is lifted.
3 Press the digits associated with the customized model and press
the pound key (#).
Dial tone disappears after the first digit is pressed. Three beeps
followed by continuous dial tone (special dial tone) is heard after
pressing the pound key.
If a valid model number is entered, the character display reads
“OK, EXTENSION?”.
If an invalid model is entered, the previous prompt is reissued and
overflow tone is heard.
