Introduction
This guide lists all of the features available to you from AT&T
System 25 through the cordless telephone and provides basic
instructions on how to use your cordless telephone to program
those features. For a full description of these features, and step-
by-step instructions on how to implement them, see the AT&T
System 25 Multiline Telephone User Guide.
Your cordless telephone is ready to use as soon as it is connected
to the System 25. You can still make and receive calls while you
are learning to use the System 25 features.
NOTE: To ensure optimal operation of your cordless phone, you
should make certain that the environmental guides specified for
this set have been met.

Lights
Your cordless telephone uses red LEDs (light emitting diodes) to
indicate the call status for each line. These LEDs normally
remain off. They become lit only when you take some action,
such as pressing STATUS, ON/OFF, a feature button, or lifting
the handset from the base unit. The LEDs flash or blink to
indicate different call states, as described below.
A steady light indicates the line or feature in use.
A slow flashing light indicates an incoming call.
A fast blinking light indicates a call on hold. (An
intermittent blinking green light indicates a call
held temporarily while being transferred or
conference. )
Ringing Tones
System 25 signals you with four distinctive rings. The rings and
their descriptions are listed below.
INSIDE CALL
Your call is from a person inside your company.
OUTSIDE CALL IIIIIII IIIIIII (two short rings)
Your call is from the attendant or someone outside your

ABBREVIATED ALERT

PRIORITY RING II II IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII (two short rings and one long ring)

completed; or a call is being set up remotely for your phone via
a data feature known as Third-Party Call Setup.

Data Dial Code (DDC)
When your System 25 was installed, Data Dial Codes (DDCs)
were assigned to data terminals. If you have a data terminal
associated with your System 25, you will receive separate
information regarding its use.
Personal Dial Code (PDC)
Personal Dial Codes (PDCs) were assigned to telephones. In
most cases, your PDC is your extension number. If a telephone
is shared by two or more people, each person may have been
assigned his or her own “floating” extension number (FPDC).
Additional Information
See your System Administrator if you have any questions or
would like additional information about your System 25 features.

System 25 Features
The cordless telephone implements nearly all the features
normally available on a multiline telephone. (Since the cordless
telephone does not have a speakerphone, display, or certain
function buttons, some features are unavailable.) See the AT&T
System 25 Multiline User Guide for a full description of features,
and detailed procedures on how to implement them.
Your AT&T System 25 has two types of features: fixed and
assignable. A fixed feature is one that is provided on all
multiline telephones. An assignable feature is not provided
automatically on all phones.

as to which features have been assigned to you.
It must be “assigned” by your
The tables starting on the following page list all the features that
can be implemented on the cordless telephone and indicate
whether they are fixed or assignable features. Also, due to
minor design differences between the cordless telephone and
other multiline telephones, there are small operational
differences regarding the use of certain features on the cordless
telephone.

NOTE: Check the tables carefully, as not all multiline features

Programming System 25 Features
Although the cordless telephone has five (5) programmable
buttons, it must be administered as a 10-button multiline
telephone (set 303). This is because the cordless telephone
supports the message waiting feature, but the 5-button telephone
does not.
Considerations
■
Since the cordless telephone does not have a speakerphone
or display, and cannot be used as an attendant console,
features that depend on those requirements are not available
on the cordless phone.
■
If Send All Calls is programmed, select Single Ring
Reminder, because there is no visual indication when this
feature is activated.
■
The five programmable buttons on the cordless telephone
correspond to buttons 7 through 11 on a regular 10-button
telephone, as shown below.
