NOTE: Throughout this book, all references to fixed buttons (keypad,
DSS/BLF, SPEAKER, HOLD, etc...) are printed in upper case, italic type; for example, “PRESS INTERCOM .”
All references to interactive buttons (which are used to make selections on the speakerphone display) are printed in upper case, bold italic type; for

System-to-System Network
The system that your IP speakerphone works into can be either a local stand-alone system or part of a system-to-system network. System-to-system networking connects several systems together in an arrangement that allows unified communications throughout the network. Depending upon the networked system to which your IP speakerphone contacts (either the host system or one of the node systems) feature set capability differs. For a complete list of features and their properties see Appendix E, Feature Networking Support. Contact your installer to determine whether your system connection is to a hub or a node system.

Welcome
Congratulations and thank you for using a Comdial telephone! Your Internet Protocol (IP) large screen display speakerphone is supported by a communication system with hundreds of built-in, standard features. This manual serves as a helpful guide for using these various functions.
The sections in this introductory chapter help you initially set up your speakerphone and become familiar with the controls and indicators. The remaining sections are titled as follows:

Positioning YourSpeakerphone
You should adjust the position of the speakerphone on your desk or table to suit your individual needs and maximize the performance of the sound activated features. When using your speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther from you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips to consider include:
For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it
and face the speakerphone. Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operat
ing properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, or other equip ment.
Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not
place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone.
Your telephone’s pedestal is adjustable in height to allow you to select the most comfortable viewing angle. When you receive the telephone, the pedestal is in its lowest position—flush against the pedestal.
To adjust the pedestal,
-
-
1. GRASP the rear of the pedestal base firmly with one hand AND LIFT the rear portion of the telephone upward with your other hand.
2. LIFT the telephone upward with one

hand AND RAISE the telephone supporting arms upward with your other

hand. (Notice there are three sets of notches under the telephone corre
-
Pedestal Base
sponding to the three positions available.)
Adjusting The Pedestal
3. When the telephone is at the desired height, SELECT the closest pair of notches AND INSERT the supporting arms in the notches. PRESS DOWN slightly on the telephone until you feel the supporting arms snap into place.
Also remember, as with any piece of electronic equipment, your telephone may be damaged by contact with liquids. Please try to place the telephone in an area that is free from the danger of spills.
Using YourSpeakerphone
To manually place a call using your speakerphone,
1. PRESS INTERCOM or line button.
2. DIAL the number.
3. When party answers, SPEAK toward the telephone.
To automatically dial a number using your speakerphone,
1. PRESS the preprogrammed speed dial or DSS/BLF button and
SPEAK toward the telephone when your party answers.
To answer a call with your speakerphone,
1. PRESS the INTERCOM or line button with flashing red
or orange light.
2. SPEAK toward the telephone to answer the call.
3. PRESS SPEAKER to end.
NOTE: For more tips and information on speakerphone operation including
the use of a Full-Duplex Speakerphone, see Appendix D, Speakerphone Characteristic on page 103.

Understanding The Large Screen Display
Your speakerphone has a large screen display consisting of six lines of 24 possible character positions per line. This provides you with much more system information than can be presented on two-line displays. This large display allows you many programming options as well as quick and easy selection of the many features available on your speakerphone. Your speakerphone has 13 interactive buttons for selecting or programming features.
When your speakerphone is idle, the first line in your display shows the day, date and time while the sixth line displays the word OPTIONS. If your system is using the voice mail option, this is also indicated in the sixth line by the word VMAIL. If your voice mail has four messages for you, for example, the VMAIL display is replaced by 4MSG.
Wednesday 19 11:36am
Lines two through four are used on the idle display to indicate features that may be active (flashing), enabled or set.

Answering Intercom Calls
An intercom call is one that is made from one system telephone to another. Your station receives intercom calls in one of two ways depending upon system programming. In a voice-first setting, a short tone is followed by the caller’s voice heard on the speaker. With a tone-first setting, the telephone rings in a distinctive pattern and the user of the receiving station must take action to answer.
As with an outside call, your screen displays the line number of the incoming call (e.g.,

Pickup For Monitored Stations
Your telephone may have the personal intercom number of another telephone appearing at a programmable button location. You can use the light associated with this button to monitor the status of that telephone, and you can press the button to make a call to that telephone if you wish. The associated light is known as the Busy Lamp Field (BLF) light, and the button is known as the Direct Station Select (DSS) button. If the installer arranged for your telephone to have the station monitoring feature, the BLF light shows activity status at the monitored telephone.
To monitor another telephone,
1. OBSERVE the BLF light indications next to the Direct Station
Select (DSS/BLF) button:
Off = Station is idle
Flashing (if enabled) = Station has an incoming call
On = Station is busy
NOTE: If you do not have the station monitoring feature, the BLF light
shows just the following information: Off = idle, On = busy.
IP Speakerphone Station User’s Guide 21
Servicing a Monitored Station
To call an idle monitored station or to answer one that is ringing,
1. NOTE the BLF light condition.
2. PRESS assigned DSS/BLF button.
3. SPEAK toward telephone, OR LIFT handset if privacy is desired.
NOTE: If you place this call on hold or if you transfer it to another tele
phone, the BLF light flashes a hold signal. You can retrieve the call by pressing TAP.
