User’s Guide

You telephone system supports two different types of
single-line telephones. It supports a single-line
proprietary telephone at every station port except port 10,
and it supports an industry-standard telephone on station
ports 26 and 28. The same system features are
available at both of these telephone types; however, the
method that you use to exercise the features differs
slightly on the different telephone types.
In most installations, your installer will program your
system to provide an intercom dial tone when you lift the
handset on your single-line telephone. This arrangement
is known as “prime intercom”. The installer may,
however, program the system to provide outside line dial
tone to your telephone instead. This arrangement is
known as “prime line automatic’ and “idle line
preference”. This user’s guide is written for telephones
with “prime intercom”. This means that you can dial
intercom numbers and system feature codes as soon as
you lift the handset.
If the installer has programmed the
system to provide outside line dial tone to your
telephone, you must obtain intercom dial tone before you
can dial the various feature codes.
On single-line proprietary telephones, you obtain
intercom dial tone by pressing the TAP button, On
industry-standard telephones you obtain intercom dial
tone by pressing and releasing the hookswitch. This TAP
button or hookswitch actuation is commonly known as
performing a flash operation. When you perform a flash
operation at your single-line telephone, the system
causes intercom dial tone to sound. If you first dial some
digits before flashing to obtain intercom dial tone, the
system places the outside line on hold; however, if you
flash your telephone to obtain intercom dial tone as soon
as you lift its handset without first dialing any digits, the
system drops the outside line.
NOTE: The system will not recognize a hookswitch flash
from a single-line proprietary telephone. You
must press the TAP button on this telephone for
any system feature requiring a flash for access.
In contrast, on an industry-standard telephone,
flashing the hookswitch is the standard means of
signalling. However, some industry-standard
telephones also provide a TAP button. If your
telephone provides a TAP button, you must press
it instead of actuating the hookswitch when you
need to f/ash for an intercom feature.
