Range
The INT4000 cordless phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by
transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications set forth by the FCC
and IC. The INT4000 is rated to operate at a maximum distance with the qualification
that the range depends upon the environment in which the telephone is used. Many
factors limit the range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables in the
rating. The maximum range rating of this phone is meant to be used as a means of
comparison against other range claims.

INT4000 Cordless Telephone User Guide
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless
handset or clicking noises in the base unit. This interference is caused by external
sources, such as a TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, computer
equipment, or electrical storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting, please check your office to see what appliances may be
causing the problem. In addition, we recommend that the base unit not be plugged
into a circuit that also powers a major appliance because of the potential for interference.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting transmissions on your phone, you may be receiving radio signals from another cordless telephone or some other source of interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of
interference, change to a different channel.
INT4000 Cordless Telephone User Guide
xi
Save These Instructions
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a
TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your office, they must operate
on different channels. Press the channel button () to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.
Privacy
Cordless phones are radio devices. Communications between the handset and base
unit of your cordless telephone are accomplished by means of radio waves which are
broadcast over the open airways. Because of the inherent physical properties of radio
waves, your communications can be received by radio-receiving devices other than
your own cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your
cordless telephone may not be private.
Base Units and Handsets
The handsets are programmed to work with a specific base unit. You cannot switch to
a new handset or a new base unit without having it reprogrammed by Inter-Tel.

Battery Packs
The battery packs contain rechargeable, sealed, Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries. To
reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons by the battery:
•Use only the appropriate type and size battery pack specified in this user guide.
•Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire. The cell may explode. Check with
local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
•Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. The released electrolyte is corrosive
and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
•Exercise care in handling the battery pack to avoid shorting the battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor
may overheat and cause burns.
•Do not charge the battery pack used in this telephone in any charger other than
the one provided. Using another charger may damage the battery or cause the battery to explode.
•Observe proper polarity orientation between the battery pack and charger unit.

ABOUTTHE TELEPHONE SYSTEM
As you can see, your INT4000 and Inter-Tel telephone system come equipped with a
lot of “bells and whistles.” To help you understand what everything means, it is recommended that you read the following information before you use your phone:
•Your telephone system may be programmed for one or two dial tones. Systems
with two dial tones have one for intercom calls and one for outside calls.
•Many features “time out” if you wait too long before performing the next step. If
this happens, you must hang up and start again.
•If you hear four fast tones or repeating fast tones, you have pressed an invalid key
combination, 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. Hang up and try again.
ABOUT VOICE MAIL
Voice mail is an application that is part of the Inter-Tel Voice Processor. With the
voice mail application, you and other callers can send and receive recorded messages
from any station or touchtone telephone. To use this and other features, each user (you
included) is assigned a “voice mailbox,” which usually corresponds to a valid extension number. You can, however, have an “unassociated” mailbox that does not correspond to an extension. Unassociated mailboxes are typically used for agents or other
personnel who don’t have a permanent office.
With your voice mailbox, you can use personal or system greetings to let callers know
if you are out of town, on a call, etc. (see page 45). If a caller reaches your voice mailbox, they can leave a message, hang up, or access an attendant.
In addition, the Voice Mail Administrator can program the name for “group lists” of
mailboxes. With these lists, you can send a message to a group of people by entering
one number instead of everyone’s individual mailbox number.

NOTE: You cannot cancel unheard (unretrieved) messages that are sent using group
Now that you know what your INT4000 can do, it’s time to start using it. In this section, you’ll learn how to make and receive calls, transfer calls, retrieve voice mail
messages, and much more.

USING DO-NOT-DISTURB MODE
If you are away from your desk, or if you do not want to be disturbed, you can use the
DND feature. This halts all pages and calls to your phone, except queue callbacks,
recalls, and direct ring-in calls. When other users call your phone, they hear a repeating signal of four fast tones and, if they have a display phone, see the DND message
you have selected.
Your telephone system can have up to 20 different DND messages, each of which can
be changed by the System Administrator, installer, or programmer. Your trainer or
System Administrator will give you a list of the programmed DND messages. For
convenience, you should update the following default list.

second line of text, up to 16 characters. For example, if you select 03 (IN MEETING
UNTIL) as your first line of text, you can enter “3:30” as your second line. Callers
with a display phone will then see, “IN MEETING UNTIL 3:30.”

Never be late for a meeting again! With reminder messages, you can program your
phone, up to 24 hours in advance, to alert you at a specified time. At the programmed
time, the reminder message signals you with eight short tones, and your display
shows the message. If you are on a call, you still hear the tones, and the message displays for ten seconds. Then the display returns after you hang up. (Reminder displays
interrupt, but do not affect, programming.)
Your phone system can have up to 20 different reminder messages, each of which can
be changed by the System Administrator, installer, or programmer. Your trainer or
System Administrator will give you a list of reminder messages for your system. For
convenience, you should update the following default list.

Voice Mail Options
Your voice mailbox contains personal options that allow you to customize your personal greetings, directory name, password, etc.
NOTE: You cannot change your personal options until you have initialized your mail-
box (see page 19).
Recording Your Personal Greetings
You can store two different personal greetings in your voice mailbox: a primary and
an alternate. You can then select which greeting you want played when a caller
reaches your voice mailbox. Because the purpose of this greeting is to tell callers why
they have reached your voice mailbox, you should include the following information:
• Whether or not you are in the office and where you can be reached.
• When you will be returning calls.
• For callers who do not wish to leave a message, how to exit. (They can press 0 to
return to the operator.)
The following are some sample greetings to help you plan your message:
• Primary Greeting: Hello, this is __________. I am either on another line or
away from my desk and cannot take your call at this time. If you need to speak to
someone immediately, please dial zero now. Otherwise, please leave a detailed
message, and I will return your call as soon as possible. Thank you.
• Alternate Greeting: Hello, this is __________. I will be away from the office
from day/date until day/date. If you need to speak to someone immediately,
please dial zero now. Otherwise, please leave a detailed message, and I will
return your call when I return. Thank you.

Programming Remote Messaging
NOTE: Your installer or System Administrator must enable this feature on your voice
mailbox.
With Remote Messaging, you can program the Voice Processing Unit (voice mail) to
call you when your mailbox receives new messages. Using a “cascade” (a series of up
to nine telephone numbers), voice mail will call each number until it successfully connects to a device (e.g., pager, answering machine, etc.).
Because your mailbox can have a Primary and an Alternate cascade of numbers, you
can program a cascade to be used during specific days and times. For example, if you
want to be paged when you receive a message from 5-10 PM on weekdays, you can
set up a Primary cascade. If you also want to receive pages for messages marked “priority” on the weekends, you could set your Alternate cascade for all day on Saturdays
and Sundays.
NOTE: If for some reason voice mail is not able to use your remote notification, your
mailbox will receive a message stating that notification could not be completed.
To set up remote messaging:

SPEED DIALING
n
Speed dialing allows you (and your System Administrator) to store frequently dialed
numbers for easy dialing. Each number is stored on your phone (Station Speed-Dial)
or in the phone system (System Speed-Dial) and is identified by a location number.
Once programmed, you can then quickly dial these numbers by entering a feature
code and dialing the desired location number. Because the Inter-Tel system supports
both Station and System Speed-Dial numbers, you can have access to over 1000
stored numbers.
Station Speed Dial
You can store up to ten personal speed-dial numbers and associated names in Station
Speed-Dial locations 0-9. If you have programmable feature buttons, you can also

Your system may be programmed with “hunt groups.” Hunt groups are groups of

Some hunt groups use a special feature called Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) that
distributes the hunt group calls equally among the available members. These hunt
group members are referred to as “agents,” who log into the ACD hunt group to
receive calls and log out to halt ACD hunt group calls.
Distributing Calls
Calls are distributed through an ACD hunt group based on Agent IDs or extensions,
as described below.
•Agent IDs: If the hunt group is programmed to use ACD Agent IDs, each agent
is assigned an Agent ID number to enter during the login procedure (described on
the next page). The hunt group calls are routed to logged-in agents, according to
their Agent ID number instead of their extension number. Because the Agent ID
is not associated with any extension, the agent can use any phone in the system to
log in.
•Members: If the hunt group is not programmed to use Agent IDs, it will have a
pre-programmed list of phones and will send calls to the phones where agents are
logged in.

hear a short ring burst. If the ACD Agent ID Automatic Connect option is enabled for
your hunt group and you are using a headset, you will be automatically connected. If

WHATTHE ADMINISTRATORS CAN DOFOR YOU
The administrators are the people to whom you should turn if you have any problems
with your phone and/or voice mail. They have access to advanced programming features and can reset certain settings associated with your phone.
The types of administrators that can help you with your phone/voice mail are as follows:
• System Administrator: Performs certain telephone system functions, including:
— Setting the date and time
— Programming System Speed-Dial numbers.
— Making database changes, such as programming usernames, toll restriction,
DND messages, and extension numbers.
• Voice Mail Administrator: Performs tasks associated with the voice mail sys-
tem, including:
— Recording a broadcast message that is sent to all mailboxes at once
— Performing mailbox maintenance (such as changing your password)
— Customizing voice mail prompts
NOTE: Because the telephone system is very flexible and programmable, the proce-
dures 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.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)
This section includes some of the most frequently asked questions. If you have problems with your phone or voice mailbox, refer to this section before you contact your
System Administrator or your local Inter-Tel dealer.
Q1.How do I program System Speed-Dial numbers?
A1.Only your System Administrator can program System Speed-Dial numbers. You can,
however, program up to ten Station Speed-Dial numbers (see page 52).
Q2.How do I change the time and date on my phone?
A2.Only your System Administrator can change the time and date. Contact your System
Administrator if you notice that the date and time are incorrect.
Q3.How can I retrieve messages if I don’t know the password for my voice mail?
A3.Try using your extension number, which is your default password. Or, maybe you
don’t have a password, in which case pressing is all you need to do. If these
options don’t work, contact your System Administrator, who can change or erase the
password for you. You can then retrieve your messages and reset the password, if
desired (see page 33).
Q4.Why can’t I retrieve deleted messages?
A4.Voice mail may have erased your message. After a programmed amount of time has
lapsed, up to 24 hours, voice mail automatically erases all deleted messages (see
page 36). If you attempted to undelete a voice mail within this time frame but you
were still unsuccessful, your voice mail system may not have sufficient space programmed to store deleted messages. Or, your telephone system may not be using a
software version that supports this feature (the “undelete” feature is supported by software versions 5.3 and later). Contact your System Administrator to determine if this
feature is available.
#
Q5.How can I set the number of rings that are allowed before the call is sent to voice
mail?
A5.Only your System Administrator can change the number of rings.
Q6.How can I change the name displayed on my phone?
A6.Only your System Administrator can change the usernames assigned to extensions.

Q7.How do I scroll the display screen?
A7.You must have the PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons programmed on your phone to
scroll up and down. Your System Administrator must program them in Database Programming.
Q8.Why can’t I program a Station Speed-Dial number to the button I want? It keeps say-
ing that the button is non-programmable.
A8.Your System Administrator has programmed that button as a non-programmable but-
ton. Because you cannot override system programming from your phone, you must
choose another button.
Q9.Why can’t I use one of the features described in this guide?
A9.There are a few reasons why you might not be able to access the feature. Some possi-
ble reasons include:
• Your system software version may not support the feature (this guide covers all
versions).
• Your System Administrator may not have enabled the feature for your phone.
• Your System Administrator may have programmed your phone to block the fea-
ture.
Q10.If I need further assistance, how do I get technical support?
A10.First, contact your System Administrator if you have a question that is not covered in
this user guide. If you need further assistance, contact your local authorized Inter-Tel
dealer. All Inter-Tel sales, service, and support are handled at the local level.
