Where to Connect the Viscount 

Viscount may be connected to the following types of installation: 

Direct Exchange Lines  (DELs)  ie, a line directly connected to a 

telephone exchange with its own telephone exchange numt5er, 
for the exclusive use of one  customer.  Most  domestic residential 
telephone lines are DELs. 

Extensions provided with DELs. 

Most switchboard extensions. 

The apparatus is only approved for compatible switchboards. 

Contact your supplier for an up-to-date list of approved switchboards 
with which the apparatus is compatible. 

Where your version of the Viscount is not 

suitable for connection 

Shared service  (party line) installations. 

As an extension to a payphone. 

With 

1+1 

carrier system. 

Checking for Faults 

How to check for a fault on your Viscount 

If your Viscount fails to work correctly carry out the following 

simple checks: 

1. 

First Check that the handset has been properly replaced. 

2. 

Ensure the plug is properly inserted into the wall socket. 

3. 

Check the operating instructions have been followed correctly. 

4. 

If your phone still fails to work correctly you should follow the 
following procedures. 

If you cannot make a call from your Phone 

There may be no dialling tone for example - disconnect any other 

extension phones and try to make a call again on your first phone.  If 

you succeed in getting through, re-connect your extension phones 

until you locate the faulty phone or socket. To establish if it is the 
phone that is faulty connect it to a socket where there is 

phone that 

you know is working properly.  If the problem continues, the extension 
phone is likely to be at fault. 

If you cannot make a call with only the first phone connected, you 

should report the situation to the British Telecom Fault Service. Their 
number is usually 

151, 

but it may vary locally, check your Dialling 

Code Book to be sure. Once you have spoken to an engineer, he will 
be able to give you more advice and may do a remote test on your 
installation.
