ABOUT THIS BOOK
Your keyset is the most visible part of the iDCS 500 Digital Communications
System. No matter what model keyset you are using, with or without a dis-
play, telephone calls are handled in the same way. The LCD 12B and LCD
24B keysets have a few additional conveniences that are not available to
STD 24B, Basic 12B and 7B keyset users. These are noted throughout this
guide.
Please take the time to study this guide and to become familiar with the op-
eration of your keyset. Keep this guide handy. You may need to look up in-
structions for infrequently used features.
Learning to use your keyset correctly will make everyday telephone commu-
nications a breeze.
This book is written based on the factory default settings for the feature
access codes. Sometimes, due to programming requirements, these codes
may be changed. If you find that a feature code does not work as described
in this book, please contact your installation and service company to deter-
mine the correct code.
