What the Features Do

The following section lists several voice features and briefly explains what each one does and how you might want to use it.
The features in this guide have been divided into two categories:
Phone Features Those telephone features that you can use immediately no matter which communications system your telephone is behind.
Note: You can use the Speakerphone and Mute features only if you are using the 8110 telephone. You may also be able to use the Auto Answer feature if it is assigned to your 8110 telephone.
System Features Those features that you can use only with a DEFINITY Generic 1 or System 75 or Generic 2 or System 85 switching system. Most of these features must be assigned by the system manager to your telephone. Check with your system manager to see which of these features you can use.

Phone Features

Auto Answer (for 8110 Users) Automatically answers the call and turns on the
built-in speakerphone on the 8110 telephone. When this feature is activated, the telephone rings once, and then an alerter tone sounds to notify you that the call has been answered. Your telephone will automatically drop the call and be ready for the next call when the calling party hangs up. Answer calls without lifting the handset.
Hold Puts a call on hold until you can return to it. While a call is on hold, you can leave your telephone to perform another task or pick up a call on another extension. Use when you have a call that you don’t wish to drop, but which you have to interrupt briefly to do something else. Note: If you want to place or answer a call while you have a call on hold, you can use the System Feature, “Hold (with Second
Dial Tone).” Message Turns on your Message light to let you know that a caller has left a
message for you. You can then follow your system manager’s local message retrieval procedures to get your message.
Mute (for 8110 Users) Turns off the microphone of the built-in speakerphone or the handset. Use when you want to confer with someone in the room with you, but you do not want the other party on the call to hear your conversation.
Personalized Ring (for 8102 and 8110 Users) The two tone controls on the side of the telephone allow you to choose your own personalized ringing pattern for your telephone. You can choose one of two ringing frequencies and also one of two ringer
modulation rates. Use to help distinguish your incoming calls from those of other telephones in your work area.
Positive Disconnect (for 8101 users) In the ON position, hangs up the phone for
approximately two seconds, even if the switchhook depression is for a shorter
duration. This action prevents inadvertent switchhook flashes. To initiate a
switchhook flash in this mode, the [
FLASH
] button must be pressed. In the
OFF
position, switchhook functioning is normal.
8
Programmable Dialing Buttons (for 8102 and 8110 Users) The 12 programmable dialing buttons are provided for one-touch dialing of frequently dialed telephone or account numbers. You can also store emergency numbers, such as 911, or feature codes on your programmable dialing buttons. Note: If you want to store more than 12 programmable dialing numbers, you can use the system feature, “Abbreviated Dialing.”
Redial The Redial feature automatically redials the last extension or outside number you dialed from the dial pad. Use this feature to save time in redialing a busy or unanswered number. The number you redial can be up to 20 digits.
Redial (With Auto-Pause) (for 8102 and 8110 Users) The Auto-Pause feature can automatically insert pauses after a dial access code (such as 9) in a redialed number. If you usually wait a short period to obtain a second dial tone after dialing an access code, you can set the waiting time needed by the Redial feature by programming the Auto-Pause feature as described in the section, “Phone Features.”
Speakerphone (for 8110 Users) Allows you to place and answer calls without lifting the handset. Use this feature any time you prefer hands-free communication (either speaking or listening) or for group conference situations.

System Features

Abbreviated Dialing Allows you to store selected telephone numbers for quick and
easy dialing. Each number can be a complete or partial telephone number, an extension number, or a trunk or feature code. There are four possible types of lists—personal, group, system, and enhanced—and you can have a total of three out
of the four possible lists (see your system manager for details). Numbers on a personal list are programmable by you; numbers on all other lists are programmable only by the system manager. Use as a timesaver for dialing frequently called, lengthy, or emergency numbers.
Automatic Callback Sends you a special 3-burst ringing tone indicating that a previously busy or unanswered extension is now available. Use to avoid constant redialing when you wish to speak to someone who is frequently busy on the telephone or in and out of the office. Note: Can be used only for extensions, not outside numbers.
Call Forwarding All Calls Temporarily forwards all your calls to another extension
or to an outside number, depending on your system. Use when you will be away from your telephone and you want your calls to be forwarded to a telephone of your choice.
Call Park Puts a call on hold at your telephone, for retrieval at any extension. Use when you need to go elsewhere to get information during a call, or whenever you wish to complete a call from a different location. Also, if the call received is for someone else, use it to hold the call until the called party can answer it from the nearest available telephone.
Call Pickup Lets you answer a call at your telephone for another extension in your
pickup group. Use when you wish to handle a call for a group member who is absent or otherwise unable to answer. Note: You can only use this feature if you and the called party have been assigned to the same pickup group by your system manager.
