Operation of Intercom Keys with Options
Group Option Keys
Activating the master key in a key group activates all keys in the group according to each key’s individual key assignment.
Activating a slave key does not affect any other keys in the group. For more information, see “Key Options Menu, Key
Groups” on page 117.
Solo Key
Activating a key with the solo option causes all other keys to turn off until the solo key is turned off. For more information, see
“Key Options Menu, Solo” on page 118.
Exclusive Key
Activating a key with the exclusive options causes all other Exclusive keys to turn off when activated. Unlike the solo option,
when exclusive is deactivated, the keys turn off and stay off. For more information, see “Key Options Menu, Exclusive” on
page 115.
Lock Key
A key with the lock option on it is locked in the on or off position and cannot be changed until the lock is removed. For more
information, see “Key Options Menu, Lock (Button Lock)” on page 118.
Chime Key
When a chime is configured on a key and a call is received, the chime is activated. You can configure length and type of chime
for the key, as well. For more information, see “Key Options Menu, Chime” on page 114.
Clear Keys
Clearing keys is used to remove any key options assigned to a specific key. For more information, see “Key Options Menu,
Clear” on page 115.
Latching Keys
Latching keys on a keypanel gives the user hands-free operation where keys stay active after quickly tapping the key. For more
information, see “Key Options Menu, Latching” on page 117.
Operation of Intercom Talk Keys with the Speaker DIM Setting
Activating any talk key causes the speaker or headphone volume at the keypanel to diminish by the amount specified in the
DIM menu item on the Service menu. For more information, see “Audio Options Menu, Dim” on page 96.
NOTE:
Do not confuse this with the Talk+DIM auto function previously described. Talk+DIM affects the speaker or
headphones on other keypanels when a particular talk key is activated on the keypanel. Speaker DIM affects the
speaker or headphone level on the keypanel when any talk key on the keypanel is activated.
