                      Getting Started

   Welcome
      Congratulations and thank you for using a Comdial telephone! Your digital station is
      supported by a communication system with hundreds of built-in, standard features.
          This manual serves as a helpful guide for using these various functions.

      The sections in this introductory chapter help you initially set up your station and
      become familiar with the controls and indicators. The remaining sections are titled
      as follows:
                  • Setting Up Your Station
                  • Understanding the Basic Functions
                  • Your Station’s Buttons
                  • Your Station’s Display Lights
                  • Supported Telephone Models

Setting Up Your Station

      When your new station arrives, the system
      installer unpacks your station and connects
      the line to a system jack. The following
      sections describe a few initial adjustments
      that will allow you to quickly begin making
      and answering calls with some of the most
      basic features.

                                                                An Impact 8124 Station

Getting Started                                                                               GCA70-248

    Positioning Your Station
       You should adjust the position of the station on your desk or table to suit your indi-
       vidual needs and, if applicable, maximize the performance of the sound activated
       features. When using a speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther
       from you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips for speakerphones to
       consider include:

           · For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and
             face the station.
           · Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating
             properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from
             typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment.
           · Place the speakerphone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not
             place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come
             between you and the microphone.

       If you are using an Impact SCS model, your telephone has an adjustable pedestal to
       allow you to select the most comfortable viewing angle. When you receive the
       telephone, the pedestal is in its lowest
       position—flush against the pedestal.
                                                               Telephone

                                                                                 Third Notch

                  firmly with one hand AND LIFT the
                  rear portion of the telephone upward
                  with your other hand.                                                                   PED01

               2. LIFT the telephone upward with
                                                          Pedestal Base
                  one hand AND R A ISE the
                  telephone supporting arms upward
                  with your other hand. (Notice there                Adjusting The Pedestal
                  are three sets of notches under the
                  telephone corresponding to the three positions available.)
               3. When the telephone is at the desired height, SELECT the closest
                  pair of notches AND INSERT the supporting arms in the notches.
                  PRESS DOWN slightly on the telephone UNTIL you feel the
                  supporting arms snap into place.

       Also remember, as with any piece of electronic equipment, your telephone may be
       damaged by contact with liquids. So please try to place the telephone in an area that
       is free from the danger of spills.

GCA70-248                                                                         Getting Started

   Setting a Personal Ringing Tone
      You can choose one of eight different ring tones for your telephone. Often, when
      several telephones are located close together, each user chooses a different personal
      ring tone.

            ·   To select one of the ring tones, proceed as follows:
                1. PRESS INTERCOM.
                2. DIAL   **4.
                3.   DIAL number ( 1    to   6 ) to select ring tone.
                4. The next time your telephone rings, you will hear the new ring
                   tone.

   Setting Volume Levels
      The volume control on your telephone is a multipur-
      pose control you use to set the volume (loudness) of
      the ringer, the speaker, and the handset.

            ·   To set the ringer loudness level,
                1. While your telephone is on-hook and
                   idle, PRESS the VOLUME UP OR
                   VOLUME DOWN button once for each
                   change in loudness you desire. The
                   ringer sounds once for each change as           Impact SCS Volume Buttons
                   an example of the current setting.

       NOTE: If you set the ringer to the “off” position, your telephone will sound a
         short ring burst once for each call you receive at your station.

       NOTE: On the 8112N, the ringer volume is controlled by a three-position switch
         on the bottom of the telephone. There is no handset volume control.

               ·       To set the speaker and handset
                       loudness levels,
                       1. PRESS INTERCOM button.
                       2. PRESS the VOLUME UP OR VOLUME

       NOTE:      When a call ends, the system resets the speaker and handset volume
         of all future calls to the programmed (default) setting. For instructions in
         setting your station’s default volume, see Default Volume Control section in
         the system specific Advanced Features chapter.

    Answering and Making Calls
       Your station is now properly configured to answer and making calls to both stations
       within your system (intercom calls) and outside lines. Remember that when dialing
       an outside number, you must first select a line to connect your system to the local
       exchange.

           ·           When you hear outside ringing (two long bursts),
                       1. PRESS flashing line button.
                       2. SPEAK toward telephone OR LIFT handset if privacy is
                          desired.

                   ·   When you hear intercom ringing (two short bursts),
                       1. PRESS INTERCOM.
                       2. SPEAK toward telephone OR LIFT handset if privacy is

Your Station’s Display Lights
       The lights (LEDs) on your LCD speakerphone indicate the status of lines,
       features, and intercoms.

       Busy Lamp Field (BLF) lights (next to a Direct Station Select/Busy
       Lamp Field or DSS/BLF programmable button):
           · Steady red = station is in use.
           · Flashing red = station is receiving a call.
           · Winking/Fluttering red = message-waiting light set for you by station
             associated with that DSS button.

       Next to a line button:
           · Steady green = this is your line, either on-hook (in a hands-free mode) or
             off-hook, when the line is active.
           · Steady red = another station is using this line.
           · Flashing red = a call is coming in on this line.
           · Flashing orange = this line will be answered when you lift the handset.
           · Winking green = your line is on hold.
           · Winking red = the call has been placed on hold by another station.
           · Fluttering orange or green = your line has recalled from hold.
           · Fluttering red = the line put on hold by another station has recalled.

       NOTE:     You can find the programmable buttons that the installer designates
         line buttons in the same location as the DSS/BLF buttons. Ensure that these
         buttons are labeled correctly to indicate their unique features.

       Next to a fixed feature or programmable feature button:
           · Steady red = the feature is on.
           · Steady off = the feature is off.

       NOTE:      You can find the programmable buttons that the installer designates
         feature buttons through user programming in the same location as the
         DSS/BLF programmable buttons. Ensure that these buttons are labeled cor-
         rectly to indicate their unique features.

       Above the MUTE button:
           · On steady = called party cannot hear your conversation.

      Next to INTERCOM button:
            · Steady green or red = you are using your intercom.
            · Fluttering red = an LCD message is set on your telephone for others to
              receive when calling.
            · Flashing orange = someone is calling your extension or a call is being
              transferred to you.

      Above the HOLD button:
            · (Non-SCS Series models) Flashing/Fluttering red = message waiting.

      Next to the MESSAGE button (SCS Series Models only):
            · Winking green = message awaits pick up.

      Above the SPEAKER button:
            · On steady (with the telephone on hook and busy) = speakerphone mode
            · On steady (with telephone on hook and idle) = background music is
              turned on.
                                                                              Line Buttons,

Answering Outside Calls
      A call that rings on an outside line sounds long, single-tone bursts and lights the line
      status light. If the installer enabled ringing line preference at your station, an orange
      light flashes next to the line that your station answers when you lift the handset; a red
      light will flash for any other ringing line.

            ·       When you hear outside ringing (long bursts) and observe
                    an orange flashing light,

Answering Intercom Calls
      An intercom call is a call between two system stations. If a speakerphone, your
      station will receive intercom calls in one of two ways depending upon system
      programming. In a voice-first setting, a short tone followed by the caller’s voice
      heard on the speaker. With a tone-first setting, the telephone rings in a distinctive
      pattern and the receiving station must take action to answer. Of course, if either
      station is not speakerphone equipped, all calls will arrive tone-first.

      You can block voice-announce calls if you wish. See the discussion titled Blocking
      Voice Announce Calls for details.

          ·           When you hear an intercom tone followed by a caller’s
                      voice,
                      1. SPEAK toward the telephone to answer, OR LIFT handset if pri-
                         vacy is desired.

                  ·   When you hear intercom ringing (two short bursts),
                      1. PRESS INTERCOM.
                      2. SPEAK toward telephone OR LIFT handset if privacy is
                         desired.

Night Transferred Calls - Line Access
From Any Station
      The system attendant can take action that transfers incoming calls to a particular
      station or stations for off-hour ringing.

              ·       When you hear ringing,
                      1. PRESS INTERCOM.
                      2. DIAL   80.
                      3. SPEAK toward telephone to answer call OR LIFT handset if
                         privacy is desired.

Do Not Disturb Condition
      The Do Not Disturb feature keeps calls from ringing at your station and makes your
      station appear to be busy to intercom calls.

       NOTE:     For instructions on programming a dedicated DO NOT DISTURB
         button at your station, see the Feature Buttons section of page 49.

            ·           To enable DND, choose one of the following:
                        1. PRESS programmed DO NOT DISTURB button. The light next
                           to the DO NOT DISTURB button turns on when the feature is
                           active,
                        2. PRESS INTERCOM AND DIAL      #01.
                    ·   To override a do not disturb condition at another telephone,

                        2. DIAL *03 (called party will hear several short tone
                           bursts).
                        3. WAIT for reply.

                ·       To disable DND,

Voice Announcements (SOHVA)
     Handling an Incoming SOHVA

       ment through your handset receiver. The distant party that you are currently talking
       to cannot hear the announcement made by the SOHVA caller.

           ·           To respond to a SOHVA verbally (not available on 8112N),
                       1. PRESS AND HOLD MUTE.

                          party.

                       Messaging (if announcing station has an LCD
                       Speakerphone),

       NOTE:  For instructions on programming a dedicated RESPONSE
         MESSAGE button at your station, see page 50.

                          is automatically disconnected from your telephone. If caller is
                          not sending from an LCD Speakerphone, no message is sent and
                          call is disconnected.)

               ·       To respond to a SOHVA by blocking (see below for more
                       information),

         respond to a SOHVA. When a SOHVA tone is received, you must lift the
         handset before responding as detailed above.

Making Outside Calls
      You can manually dial a number over any telephone line you select. Or, if the
      installer assigned a prime line or the idle line preference feature, your station auto-
      matically selects a line for use when you lift the handset.

       NOTE:            8112N and 8212N users must lift handset before any dialing activity.

                ·   To dial an outside number manually,
                    1. PRESS INTERCOM OR LIFT handset if privacy is desired.
                       (8112N and 8212N users must lift handset.)
                    2. DIAL 9 OR other line button to select line (See Line Groups
                       on page 53 for more information on selecting an outside line).
                    3. LISTEN for dial tone.
                    4. DIAL number.

      If your station has been assigned a prime line, you will not have to select a line before
      dialing outside your system.

            ·       To dial an outside number using your prime line,
                    1. PRESS SPEAKER OR LIFT handset if privacy is desired.
                       Outside line is automatically selected. (8112N and 8212N users

Making Intercom Calls
       There are two methods for making intercom calls. One method causes the called
       telephone to ring (tone-first). The other method causes your voice to sound out at the
       called telephone (voice-first). Your installer can set the system to deliver either
       tone-first or voice-first calling.

       NOTE:     The following instructions assume a tone-first setting. You can
         change a call to voice announce signaling for that call simply by pressing
         the INTERCOM button again after dialing the extension number or by press-
         ing the DSS/BLF button again.

                   ·       To manually cause the other telephone to ring (tone
                           calling),
                           1. PRESS INTERCOM OR LIFT handset if privacy is desired.
                              (8112N and 8212N users must lift handset.)
                           2. DIAL extension number (called telephone will ring).

               ·           To tone call automatically,
                           1. PRESS DSS/BLF button (called telephone will ring). (8112N and
                              8212N users must lift handset first.)

       NOTE:    The following instructions assume a voice-first default setting. You
         can change a call to a tone signaling for that call simply by pressing the
         INTERCOM button again after dialing the extension number or by pressing
         the DSS/BLF button again.

           ·               To voice announce manually,
                           1. PRESS INTERCOM.
                           2. DIAL extension number.
                           3. SPEAK your announcement.

Automatic Dialing
      Automatic dialing provides one- or two-button speed dialing using programmable
      buttons at which you have previously stored numbers. There are two types of speed
      dial numbers: (1) numbers that you store for your own use (personal speed dial
      numbers and autodial numbers), and (2) numbers that the system attendant stores for
      everyone’s use (system speed dial numbers).

       NOTE:     When you call from a station not equipped with a speaker (for
         example, 8112N and 8212N) you must LIFT the handset AND PRESS TAP
         before initiating any automatic dialing activity.

            ·           To automatically dial a speed dial number stored at one of
                        the programmable buttons on your station, choose one of
                        the following:
                        1. PRESS programmed speed dial button (line selection is usually a
                           part of the stored speed dial number).
                        2. PRESS SHIFT AND programmed speed dial button (to choose
                           number stored as second choice at that button).

                    ·   To speed dial a personal speed dial number stored at the
                        dial pad,
                        1. DIAL speed dial number on dial pad ( 0 to 9 ).

       NOTE:     If you are already on a line, you must press SHIFT before dialing the
         personal or system speed dial numbers that are stored at the dial pad. Also,
         if a speed dial number’s preselected line is in use, the speed dial will not
         engage.

                ·       To speed dial a system speed dial number stored at the dial
                        pad,
                        1. DIAL   *    AND system speed dial number.

Redialing
     Redial - Last-Dialed Number
       The system temporarily saves the first 16 digits of the last manually dialed number
       for your redial use—if the last number you called is busy or is not answering, you
       can redial it once or initiate repeated redialing. Subsequent dialing activity
       overwrites a temporarily saved number.

               ·       To redial the last-dialed number,
                       1. PRESS SPEAKER OR HANG UP handset to disconnect current
                          ringing or busy tone.
                       2. DIAL   #.
                       3. LIFT handset OR LISTEN for ringing or busy tone over the
                          telephone speaker:

     Automatic Redialing
                   ·   To redial the number once a minute for 10 minutes,
                       1. PRESS programmed AUTOMATIC REDIAL button. (See page
                          51 for directions on programming an AUTOMATIC REDIAL
                          button.)
       The number will be dialed once a minute for 10 minutes (INTERCOM light flashes).
       Listen for ringing or busy tone over the monitor speaker.

        NOTE: You must pick up the handset once the call is connected, or the system
          will disconnect the call after 30 seconds.

           ·           To cancel this automatic redial action,
                       1. LIFT AND REPLACE handset OR, USE the telephone for
                          some other function.

       The INTERCOM light then turns off and the phone returns to idle.

   Redial Programming (Storing Numbers)
      You can permanently store a number at any programmable button location that does
      not currently have a number or feature associated with it. (For programming of a
      SAVED NUMBER REDIAL button at your station, refer to Feature Buttons section
      on page 49.)

            ·           To permanently store a number you’ve just dialed,
                        1. DIAL number.
                        2. PRESS programmed SAVED NUMBER REDIAL button.

                    ·   To dial the saved number,
                        1. PRESS SPEAKER OR LIFT handset if privacy desired.
                        2. PRESS button where number is saved, OR PRESS programmed
                           SAVE NUMBER REDIAL button.

Sending Subdued Off-Hook
Voice Announcements (SOHVA)
      You can make a private voice announcement to another station that is off-hook and
      busy on a call if the system is arranged to provide this feature. (See page 50 for
      instructions on programming a dedicated SOHVA button.)

                ·       Make a SOHVA announcement using the SOHVA button as
                        follows:
                        1. MAKE intercom call AND HEAR busy tone. If called station is
                           on outside line, ring-back tone is heard, but SOHVA is still
                           available.
                        2. PRESS programmed SOHVA button AND HEAR several quick
                           tone bursts.
                        3. MAKE announcement (busy tone means that the called telephone
                           is in station mode and you cannot make announcement, that your
                           SOHVA has been denied through system programming, or that
                           the called party has blocked your SOHVA).
                        4. WAIT on line for reply.

Camping On Options
     Busy or Idle Station, Automatic Callback
       If the telephone you have called on the intercom line is busy or rings with no answer,
       you can have the system ring your telephone when the called station becomes idle (if
       it was busy) or when there is any activity initiated at that telephone (if it rang with no
       answer before).

           ·           To camp on at a busy or no answer station,
                       1. MAKE intercom call.

        NOTE: If you make a call in the voice-announce mode and receive no answer at
          the called station, press INTERCOM before dialing T 6 in order to camp-on
          at that station.

                       2. DIAL    *6.
                       3. Your telephone immediately hangs up. When the telephone you
                          called becomes idle, your telephone will ring with five short ring
                          bursts.
                       4. PRESS INTERCOM when you hear the ring bursts. The other

Call Transferring
     Screened Call Transfers
       You can answer a call at your station and transfer it to another telephone. If you
       first identify the caller to the party receiving the transfer (giving that user the
       opportunity to prepare for the call), you have made a screened transfer.

           ·       To screen and transfer a call to another telephone in the
                   system,
                   1. ANSWER call.
                   2. PRESS TRNS/CONF (call is automatically placed on hold).
                   3. DIAL extension number of telephone to receive transfer, OR
                      PRESS DSS/BLF button for that extension.
                   4. ANNOUNCE call when intercom party answers.
                   5. PRESS SPEAKER to disconnect (if in station mode), OR HANG
                      UP.
       The intercom party then has the call (if he or she answered the screened transfer with
       the handset). If you announce the transfer over the speaker, the intercom party’s
       telephone rings with the transferred call after you hang up.

               ·   If the intercom party is busy or does not answer,
                   1. PRESS flashing line button AND LIFT handset if privacy is

Call Parking
       You can place a call on hold in the system so that it can be answered from any station
       that does not have a line appearance for the call. You accomplish this by placing the
       call in one of nine park orbits, where the call remains until it is answered.

           ·           To place a call on hold within the system where it can be
                       answered at any telephone in the system (parking a call in
                       orbit),
                       1. While on the call, PRESS INTERCOM AND DIAL         *.
                       2. DIAL code for park location (orbit) (   91   to   99    for orbit
                          1–9).
                       3. REMEMBER the code for later use OR make it known to those
                          who need to know in order to retrieve the call.

                   ·   To retrieve a call that was placed on hold in the system
                       (parked),
                       1. From any station, PRESS INTERCOM AND DIAL          #.
                       2. DIAL code for orbit 1–9 (   91    to    99   ).

     Handling Park Recalls
       When a parked call times out of the system, it returns to your telephone in the form of
       a park recall (you will hear four short tone bursts at 12-second intervals).

           ·           To answer a park recall,
                       1. PRESS associated line button. The call will then connect to your
                          station.

               ·       To place a park recall on hold at your station,
                       1. PRESS associated line button. The call will then connect to your
                          station.
                       2. PRESS HOLD. If the call remains on hold for a period of time, it
                          will ring back to your telephone as a hold recall.

Station-To-Station Message Delivery
      When you call another telephone and receive no answer, you may leave a reminder
      that you have called. Do this by turning on the BLF light at the called telephone.

      If your telephone is not stored as a DSS/BLF button at the called telephone, your
      messaging call goes to the central message desk, if one is programmed. The central
      message desk (usually the system attendant) takes your message and turns on the
      message waiting light of the telephone that you originally called.

                        reminder (a BLF light is fluttering), answer it as follows:
