Programmable feature keys
The phone’s
programmable feature keys
— four on an ESI Cordless Handset, nine on the 12-Key Feature
Phone, 12 on the 24-Key Feature Phone, and 30 on the 48-Key Feature Phone — have been pre-
programmed by the installer. You may wish to add to or change some of these keys to perform different
functions explained throughout this manual. Press
PROGRAM
to verify current settings (see “Station
programming,” page C.1).
Important:
Each of the two smaller Feature Phones, 12-Key and 24-Key, has a combination (“combo”)
PROG/HELP
key, while the 48-Key Feature Phone has separate
PROGRAM
and
HELP
keys. If you’re
using a 12-Key or 24-Key Feature Phone, press
PROG/HELP
wherever this
User’s Guide
instructs you
to press either
PROGRAM
or
HELP
.
Each ESI Cordless Handset has a combination
TRANS/CONF/PRG
key that you should press when this
User’s Guide
instructs you to press
PROGRAM
.

Note:
To use voice mail, conference calling and mute/DND on a 12-Key Feature Phone,
or
to use call
recording or do-not-disturb mode on an ESI Cordless Handset, you must program these features into
programmable feature keys (see “Optional features,” page F.14).
Fixed-feature keys
The
fixed-feature keys
on the phone are permanently labeled as to their usage. The
FLASH/REDIAL
and
MUTE/DND
key on either Feature Phone each have two purposes; your ESI phone system will govern this by
permitting only the appropriate function when either is pressed, depending on the circumstances at that
moment. The different phone models have some different fixed-feature keys.
Feature phone overlays
Each Feature Phone comes with one overlay for the programmable feature keys. To order additional
overlays, visit the DESI
™
Web site,
www.desi.com.
While there, you may also want to download the free
Windows
-based software,
DESI Lite
, which allows you to print on the overlays. For assistance with DESI
products, contact DESI (the DESI Web site contains contact information).

Each Cordless Handset has no access to the system’s Verbal User Guide (“help mode”) and, therefore, no
HELP
key.
