Your telephone is part of an easy-to-use communications system that combines built-in features with features that may be customized to better meet the needs of your company. This manual will explain how to use all of the features. “
Which System Does Your Company Have?
There are two SPIRIT® Communications Systems –Models 308/616 and 2448. Sometimes the systems work differently, so you need to find out which system your company has.
To determine which system your company has,
● Press INTERCOM. ● Lift receiver. ● Dial 8.
If your system is a 308/616 you will hear a siren-like tone of alternating pitches.
If your system is a 2448 you will hear an intercom dial tone.
Examples of Color-Coded Instructions
■Instructions for Both Systems
●Lift receiver (or press SPEAKER).
■Instructions for 308/616 System Only
●Press INTERCOM. ● Lift receiver (or press SPEAKER) ● Dial 61. Make announcement.
■Instructions for 2448 System Only
● Press INTERCOM. ● Lift receiver (or press SPEAKER). ● Dial 7.
Parts of the Telephone
Drawings of the telephones with the parts labeled and explained appear on pages 6 and 7.
Two different telephones may be used with SPIRIT Communications Systems. Both telephones have a dial, feature buttons, a speakerphone, and either 6 or 24 additional buttons that have different uses, depending on the system you have.
Patterns
Descriptions of the ringing patterns and indicator light patterns are on page 5. These patterns are easy to learn, but you may want to refer to the descriptions while you are getting used to your telephone.
System and Personal SpeedCAll Numbers
Two kinds of memories are available for your use, System and Personal SpeedCall. Up to 70 telephone numbers can be stored in the System SpeedCall memory, which is available to all the people using the system. The person in your company who maintains your system can give you a directory of the System SpeedCall numbers. You may also store Personal SpeedCall numbers in the memory for your telephone. Instructions are on pages 32-35.

24-button telephone (2448 system)
Line Button Used for placing and receiving outside calls. The person who maintains your system assigns lines to your telephone.
Incoming lines are the lines coming into your system from outside, either local telephone company lines or lines from a PBX system. The lines are numbered according to how they are connected
to the system. The person who maintains your system should have labeled the line buttons on your telephone. Different SPIRIT telephones in your system may have different lines represented by line buttons. Be careful to check the line labels carefully when using other SPIRIT telephones in your system.
Multi-Purpose Buttons
Buttons that are not line buttons may be used as multi-purpose buttons. Each multi-purpose button may be programmed as ONE of the following:
Intercom Extension Button This allows one-touch dialing to another SPIRIT telephone. See page 31.
Group Page Button This allows one-touch paging to one of the groups of telephones in the system. The lights next to these buttons also provide information about telephone activity. See page 31.
Account Code Entry Button This allows you to enter an account code into the call
records. See page 31.
Manual Signal Button This allows tone signaling to another SPIRIT telephone when used with an INTERCOM EXTENSION BUTTON. See page 31.
Personal SpeedCall Button This allows one-touch dialing of a Personal SpeedCall number. See page 34.
A multi-purpose button that is not programmed will not do anything. The programming of these buttons is flexible and may be changed by giving the button a new use. If you have difficulty programming a button, ask the person who maintains your system to check the customization of your telephone.
