This user guide contains instructions for using the Eclipse Associate Display and
Basic Digital Phones on the Eclipse telephone and Voice Mail systems.
The tabs on the edge of each page will help you find the features more quickly.
•Phone and Telephone System feature pages have tabs at the top of the page like
the one shown at right.
•Voice Mail feature pages have tabs in the middle of the page.
•Default Feature Code pages have the tab at the bottom of the page.
NOTE: The Eclipse telephone system is a very flexible, programmable system.
Depending on the version of software your system uses and your system’s custom programming, the procedures for using the features might vary slightly from the descriptions in this guide. If so, your trainer or System Administrator can tell you how your
system differs and how to use the features. If your telephone system uses a different
voice mail system, you will be provided with a separate user guide for that system.
QUICK-START INSTRUCTIONS
For quick access to basic instructions, refer to the Quick Reference Guide attached
inside the front cover of this user guide. It also includes a tear-out pocket guide that
has instructions for the features you are likely to use while away from the office
(Remote Feature Access and Voice Mail).
ABOUT THIS GUIDE
ABOUT YOUR PHONE
The buttons on your phone are called “keys,” which is why the phone is sometimes
referred to as a “Keyset.” The keys are used for dialing and for access to the features
of the Eclipse telephone system and Eclipse Voice Mail.
Basic Digital Phones are available in non-display models only. Associate Display
Phones are available in both display and non-display models. The Associate Display
Phones have two-line displays with 16 characters per line. When the phone is not in
use, the display shows the extension number, user name, time of day, and date. Other
displays include reminder messages, do-not-disturb messages, numbers dialed, call
sources, elapsed time of calls, current call costs, error messages, etc.

ABOUT YOUR PHONE SYSTEM
What You See And Hear
There are a few things you should know about the Eclipse telephone system before
you use your phone:
•Your telephone system may have one dial tone for both intercom calls and outside calls. Or, it may be programmed to have two dial tones: (1) When you lift
the handset or press the SPKR key, you hear intercom dial tone. (2) When you
select an outgoing line, you hear standard outside dial tone.
•Many features “time out” if you wait too long before performing the next step. If
this happens, you must start over.
•Four fast tones or repeating fast tones signal that you made a mistake, tried to
select a restricted line, dialed a restricted or invalid number, dialed too slowly
between digits, or waited too long before performing the next step. If you hear
this signal, hang up and try again.
•Each phone in your telephone system has an extension number that allows you to
place intercom calls to it. Some phones belong to “hunt groups” that have special
extension numbers which route your call through the phones in the group. Your
trainer or System Administrator can provide you with a list of extension numbers
for your telephone system.
•Some phone models have red/green lamps in the feature keys. If you have one of
these phones, and your telephone system is programmed to use them, the lamps
will be green if the associated call is ringing, holding, or active on your phone
and will be red if the call is on another phone. (An exception to this would be if
the programmer has determined that calls that ring in directly to your phone will
always have red lamps.)
•A phone is considered to be “off hook” when either the handset is lifted or the
speakerphone is on (the SPKR key is lit). You can hang up or be “on hook” by
placing the handset in the cradle or turning the speakerphone off. When a call is
on the speakerphone, the call is in “handsfree” mode.

ABOUT YOUR PHONE SYSTEM
What The Administrators Can Do For You
There are two types of Administrators: System Administrator and Voice Mail Administrator. Often these duties are assigned to the same person or a small group of people.
•System Administrator: There are certain telephone system functions that can be
performed for you only by the System Administrator. These include:
— Set the date and time
— Program system speed-dial numbers
— Make database changes, such as programming user names, toll restriction,
do-not-disturb messages, and extension numbers, including the voice mail
extension number.
•Voice Mail Administrator: The Voice Mail Administrator has a special type of
voice mailbox that allows him or her to perform the following tasks:
— Record a broadcast message that is sent to all mailboxes at once
— Perform mailbox maintenance (such as changing your password)
— Customize voice mail prompts
If you are a System Administrator or need more information than this guide covers,
refer to the Eclipse Administrator’s Guide (part number 550.8001).

ABOUT VOICE MAIL
The Eclipse Voice Processing Unit contains a voice mail application that allows callers to send and receive recorded messages from any station or touch-tone telephone.
The telephone system users are assigned “voice mailboxes” that usually have numbers
that match the users’ extension numbers. However, sometimes an “unassociated”
mailbox can be programmed to signal a non-matching extension number when it
receives a message.
When they first reach voice mail, callers hear the voice mail company greeting and
recorded instructions that tell them how to access the voice mailboxes. Once in a
mailbox, they hear the mailbox owner’s personal greeting.
To make it easier to send messages to a group of people, the Voice Mail Administrator
can program “group lists” of mailboxes. These lists can be used by any voice mail
user by entering the group list’s number instead of a mailbox number.
Initializing Your Mailbox
The first time you use your voice mailbox, you must initialize it. Voice mail will
instruct you to:
•Change the default password number to a personal password
•Record a name to identify yourself in the company directory
•Listen to the voice mail introduction
To initialize your mailbox:
— Dial the voice mail extension number, which you can get from your Voice Mail
Administrator. (You hear the main menu.)
— Press to identify yourself as a subscriber.
— Enter your mailbox number and default password. (Your default password is your
mailbox number.)
— If you want a password, enter a new password using digits 0-9 (up to 12 digits).
Then press . Voice mail plays back your password.
If you do not want to use a password, just press .
— Press to accept the entry. (Or, press if you wish to re-enter your pass-
word.) Voice mail prompts you to record your directory name.
— After the tone, record your first and last name. When finished, press .
— Press again to accept the name. (Or, press to replay the name you just
recorded, press to add to your name, or press to erase and re-record it.)
— The unit then plays a prompt that introduces you to the basic voice mail features.
(You can skip this introduction by pressing , if desired.)
