Note: The TIF 2000 only responds to commands which are
sent via a point-to-point key assignment. If you wish to use
the TIF 2000 primarily on a PL, you must add a point to
point assignment as the L2 talk assignment on the talk key
for any panels which are going to either answer the line, or
dial out on the line.
Dialing a call
Any key panel may dial calls on the TIF 2000.
To dial a call on the TIF 2000;
1. Turn on the listen key for the line you wish to dial on.
This will allow you to hear dial tone, and your DTMF
dialing tones.
2. Enter dial mode by entering PHONE-PGM-T. PHONE is
the 4 button on the keypad. PGM is the red PGM key on
the keypad, and T is the talk key which is programmed to
talk to the TIF 2000 you are dialing on. Leave the talk
key in the latched position as you dial the number.
3. Dial the number. As you enter each digit, it will appear in
the alpha display above the key you are dialing on. If the
listen key is latched, you will hear each DTMF tone as it
is generated.
4. When you have completed dialing, momentarily turn off
the talk key to exit dial mode. The alpha numeric display
will revert to normal, and you may use the key and
keypad in the normal manner.
Note: The keypad is used in the usual way. Digits 0-9
generate the DTMF digits 0-9. PGM generates #, and CLR
generates *(# and * are displayed for these keys).
It is necessary to press CLR twice if you wish to generate a
*, as a single CLR is used to trigger the speed dial and
redial features.
Hanging up
The TIF 2000 will detect that the caller at the far end has
hung up under most circumstances. It detects the hang up
by either loop interrupt, battery reversal, or the presence of
dial tone or a busy signal. Some telephone systems do not
provide any of the above, so it will be necessary to force a
hang up. In addition, if the call was placed to an auto
answer device, it will be necessary to force a hang up when
the call is complete.
Enter PHONE-CLR-t, where PHONE is the 4 button on the
key pad, CLR is the CLR button, and t is the talk key which
is programmed to talk to the TIF 2000 which you wish to
hang up. This will disconnect the line for which you struck
the talk key.
Note: If the talk key is in the on position, you must turn off
the key, then momentarily turn it on again to indicate which
line you wish to disconnect. If the line is in dialing mode,
then you must first exit dialing mode by turning off the key,
then use PHONE-CLR-t to hang up.
Re-dialing the last number
The TIF 2000 remembers the last number which it has
dialed.
1. Enter dialing mode by following the instructions for
dialing a call.
2. Enter CLR-0-0. The TIF 2000 will automatically redial
the last number it dialed.
3. Momentarily release the talk key to exit dialing mode.
For example: If you have a call to 818-566-6700 and you
are disconnected, issuing the redial command will re-
establish the call. The redial command may be issued from
any keypanel in the intercom, not just the keypanel that
originally dialed the call.
Dialing a speed dial number
The TIF 2000 has 24 internal memories for storing fre-
quently used phone numbers. To dial one of these numbers:
1. Enter dial mode.
2. Enter CLR-nn where CLR is the clear button on the key
pad, and nn is two digits, which are the speed dial code.
3. Momentarily release the talk key to exit dialing mode.
Storing a speed dial number
1. After dialing the number the usual way, but before exiting
dial mode, enter the CLR-PGM-nn before you release the
talk key to exit dialing mode.
2. Momentarily release the talk key to exit dialing mode.
Note: To generate a pause during auto dial, enter *99. This
is used for example if you need to enter a digit to get an
outside line, and your phone system requires a pause before
continuing to dial.
Each number may contain up to 25 digits.
A TIF 2000 can have different numbers stored in it. Unlike
the TIF 951, the TIF 2000 stores the numbers in non-volitile
memory and therefore does not require a UPS to maintain
stored speed dial numbers.
Answering a call
1. When a line is ringing, the alpha numeric display or LED
above the talk key which is programmed for that line will
flash rapidly.
