SETTING THE DIALLING AND RECALL MODE
The settings must be carried out BEFORE connecting the telephone to the telephone
socket. Please note that batteries are not supplied with the unit.
Remove the battery compartment cover on the underside of the base by removing
the screw and sliding back the cover. N.B. The telephone must be disconnected from
the line before removing the battery cover. Fit 2 size M (or equivalent) leakproof
alkaline batteries observing correct polarities. The batteries support information in the
memories should the telephone be disconnected from the line.
Two preset switches will be found situated underneath the memory card inlay. These
are the DIAL MODE SELECTOR SWITCH and RECALL MODE SELECTOR SWITCH
and should be set as follows:
7.1 THE DIAL MODE SELECTOR SWITCH
BT are replacing all local exchanges with new ‘TONE' dialling digital systems. They
will give improved clarity and reliability and with ‘Touch Tone’ signalling telephones,
instant connection of calls over digital exchanges and a host of advanced features.
However some telephone exchanges in the U.K. still operate on the PULSE dialling
system.
Your NR203HPUK series telephone allows you to operate on either system and the
DIAL MODE SELECTOR SWITCH should be set to the dialling mode required by your
exchange. Set the switch to the PULSE position for pulse dialling or to the TONE
position for tone dialling. If in doubt about the correct dialling mode used by your
exchange, please consult your Network Operator.
7.2 THE RECALL MODE SELECTOR SWITCH
If you are connected to a TONE dialling exchange, set the switch to the TBR (Timed
Break Recall) position to enable you access certain Network Services.
If you are connected to a PULSE dialling exchange, set the switch to the ELR(Earth
Loop) position as recall has no function on direct lines connected to such exchanges.
(This will avoid the possibility of cutting off your call should the recall button be
pressed accidentally.)
If you are connected to a PABX, set the switch according to the requirements of your
particular PABX. If in doubt, consult your PABX Instructions or your PABX maintainer.
Having installed the batteries and set the switches, refit the battery compartment
cover ensuring that it is screwed fully into place.
