Switch setting: Please Read the Operation instructions for each setting carefully
There are pairs of 3 position switches on the SX8800 that control the activation method, you need to select the
proper setting based on your type of phones:
A1, A2, A3: Hold button activation
Use one of these settings when all phones are corded & are same model (for example all are ATT 992) and are
compatible with Hold button activation (see the list in page 3)
B1, B2: These two settings utilize Flash then Hold activation method, this setting
supports any phone and any mix of brands with instant activation
by pressing Flash then Hold
• Use B1 or B2 settings if your phones are Cordless type (including corded base station + portables)
• If you have mixed cordless type phones with corded type phones
• If you have corded type phones that are not all the same model for example ATT brand and
Panasonic brand are both used in your office
• If you have any phone that does not activate by pressing Hold (for example ATT 1040)
B3: Hold button activation or Flash See page P4 for full details.
C1, C2: Voice Activation Mode These two settings utilize Delayed Hold activation method, most phones
cordless or corded or mixed can be activated for music on hold in less than 15 seconds after you press HOLD.
C3: Test mode
IMPORTANT NOTE: The audio may activate in the middle of a call due to
factors like excessive wiring (see page 12 item 8), bad or old wiring , existing
unstable lines, sparks, too many wall jacks , Noisy phone lines, Bad
telephones, “Hot Lines” (see P6 special cases)
If that ever happens, press the FLASH button to stop the audio! and
continue your conversation. The FLASH button is found on every telephone,
it could be labeled as CALL WAIT / FLASH or LINK or ON or TALK button
Note: Do not set the volume too loud it may flicker or shut off the on-hold audio.
Note: Do not use a Cell phone near the device to setup or test the device. Use a fax line, etc.
