DTS821 Shift and Function Keys
Shift key together with F1, F2, F3 keys provide several flexible functions in usage.
When the Shift key is OFF (not lighted), Rdial key is used for re-dialing,
Disc key is used for disconnecting the call, and Conf key is used for creating
a conference.
If the Shift key is pressed once or more than once, shift state changes. Shift
states are indicated and distinguished with the backligthing state of the key.
Shift key may be fast blinking, slow blinking, or continuously lighted. In
each of these shift states, a different function can be programmed for F1, F2,
F3 function keys. In other words, when the Shift key is OFF, F1 key is for re-
dialing. When the Shift is fast blinking, F1 key may be for another function.
When the Shift is slowly blinking, F1 key may be for some other function.
When the Shift is continuously lighted, F1 key may be for a completely
different function.
DTS821 Shift and Quick-access Keys
DTS821 Digital Telephone Set has 30 quick-access keys in total. These keys are
numbered 00 to 29. Each key is with the back-lighting technology. Whenever a key is
pressed, a pre-programmed number on this key is dialed. If pre-programmed numbers
of these keys are the local users of the Telesis PBX or switching system then quick-
access keys also operate as the BDP (busy display panel). That means, keys show busy,
free, ringing states of local users with their lights ON, OFF, blinking respectively.
If the Shift key is pressed once or more than once, shift state changes. Shift states are
indicated and distinguished by the backligthing state of the key. Shift key may be fast
blinking, slow blinking, or continuously lighted. In each of these shift states, a
different number can be programmed onto a quick-access key. In other words, when
the Shift key is OFF, “quick-access key 00” may be programmed for the number
“aaa…..”. When the Shift key is fast blinking, “quick-access key 00” may be
programmed for the number “bbb…..”. When the Shift key is slowly blinking, “quick-
access key 00” may be programmed for the number “ccc…..”. And when the Shift key
is continuously lighted, “quick-access key 00” may be programmed for the number
“ccc…..”.

DTS821 Alphabetic Keyboard
Quick-access keys on the DTS821 Digital Telephone Set
may also be used as Alphabetic or text keys. Whenever it
is necessary DTS821 Digital Telephone Set automatically
interprets pressed quick-access keys as letters or characters
right next to the numbers. This alphabetic or text keyboard
is especially useful in operating some functions within the
DTS821. One example is searching names through the
Directory list.
DTS821 Other Keys
Fash key is to hold the call before transfer or colsultation. Pressing the key
again retrives the held call.
Trans key is to transfer a held call to another destination.
+/- keys are to increase and decrease volume and ringer volume.
Rec key is to record a personal conversation bi-directionally (i.e., both
calling and called party’s voices are recorded). In conversation state,
pressing Rec key starts recording and the key is lighted (ON). When the
key is pressed again, recording stops and the key lights OFF. During the
same conversation record function can be used several times for multiple
and partial recordings.
Note: Certain parts of the software which deliver particular functionality to a particular
Telesis PBX or switching system are technologically secured to prevent their
unlicensed use. The licensed optional parts should be enabled as detailed in technical
documents of the relevant Telesis PBX or switching system. Otherwise the optional
parts of the software terminate a short time after the Telesis PBX or switching system
is turned on. Personal conversation recording with using Rec key may also need your
Telesis PBX or switching system to have additional hardware, programming and/or
licencing. Please contact your local Telesis Dealer for details.
