Intended use
The Octophon F620 phone is a desktop or wall-mounted unit designed for speech transmis-
sion and for connection to the LAN. Any other use is regarded as unauthorized.
Telephone type
The identification details (exact product designation and serial number) of your telephone
can be found on the nameplate on the underside of the base unit. Specific details concern-
ing your communications platform can be obtained from your service technician.
Please have this information ready when you contact our service department regarding
faults or problems with the product.
Speakerphone quality and display legibility
• To ensure good speakerphone quality, the area in front of the microphone (front right)
should be kept clear. The optimum speakerphone distance is 50 cm.
• Proceed as follows to optimize display legibility:
– Turn the phone to tilt the display. This ensures you have a frontal view of the display
while eliminating light reflexes.
– Adjust the contrast as required
Voice encryption
Your Octophon F620, software release 2 (V1 R2.xxxx) and later, supports voice encryption
on Octopus F100/200/400/650/IP-Netpackage (R 4 and later) and Octopus F470 UC. This
allows you to use your Octophon F620 to perform tap-proof calls. Voice transmission is en-
crypted and data is decrypted at the other call party’s phone and vice versa.
If "Secure Mode" is enabled on your phone, and a connection is established to a phone that
does not support voice encryption, the call is not encrypted and thus unsecured.
Your service personnel can define on the communications system whether you are notified
of unencrypted calls and how. In idle mode you can view which security mode is acticated
on your Octophon F620
