Using this Guide
This guide details the features that the 20DT handset supports by itself. The handset
may also be able to use other functions provided by the DECT and PBX telephone
systems with which it is working.
• INDeX DECT System
The 20DT can be used with GAP compatible DECT systems. When used with
an INDeX DECT system it can access several additional enhanced services
(see "INDeX Functions" on page 13).
• INDeX Telephone System
When used with an INDeX telephone system, the handset has a range of extra
features (see "INDeX Functions" on page 13). This guide describes how to use
these features for INDeX Software Release 9.1. Ask your System Manager
which Software Release Level your INDeX system is using.
• Non-INDeX Systems
Refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
Further Help
In all cases, first seek help from your System Manager. If necessary they will seek help
from your system's maintainer.
This guide is available in several computer formats (Windows Help, Adobe Acrobat).
You can download them from our web site at: http://www.sdxplc.com.
Notes and Warnings
Equipment in some areas may cause interference with cordless handsets. Other areas
may have atmospheres that require the use of special "intrinsically safe" equipment
only. The 20DT handset is not classified as intrinsically safe and must not be taken
into these areas.
Unfortunately all types of cordless handset may cause background sound on some
hearing aids.
