Warnings

Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage any device connected to it. This endpoint is no exception.
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Inter-Tel, or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide, could void your authority to operate this product.
The cords on this product and/or accessories contain lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Range Limits

The INT3000 is designed for commercial use. Range has been approved for 150 feet per Base Unit. Actual range may be less or greater than this distance depending on the environment. Building wiring, walls, elevators and other electronic interference fre­quencies may limit the range of this telephone. Please consult your telecommunica­tions consultant for testing of your location.
To maximize the range capability, do the following:
Locate the Base Unit at the highest point possible in the center of your coverage zone. If you are planning to cover an outdoor area, such as a car lot, building grounds, or campus, place the unit near a window and the highest point within the building.
Place the Base Unit away from any electronic device. This includes, but is not limited to, computer screens, radios, electronic signs, coffee pots, microwaves, and other electronic devices.
NOTICE
CAUTION
WARNING
v

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 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 around your office to see what appliances may be causing the problem. In addition, we recommend that the Base not be plugged into a circuit that also powers a major appliance because of the potential for interfer­ence. Be certain that the antenna on the unit is fully extended when needed.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting transmis­sions on your endpoint, you may be receiving radio signals from another cordless telephone or other source of interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of interfer­ence, you need to change to a different channel.
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.
vi

Privacy

Cordless endpoints 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 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 Hydrate batteries. To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons by the battery, read and follow these instructions:
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.
Do not open or mutilate the Battery Pack. 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 in order not to short 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 with it. Using another charger may damage the battery, or cause the battery to explode.
Observe proper polarity orientation between the Battery Pack and Battery Charger.
Do not short circuit the Battery Pack.

Not Waterproof

This unit is not waterproof. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or damage to the unit, DO NOT expose this unit to rain or moisture.

Call Button
These buttons are used for call access. They are not associated with specific lines. Instead, they are assigned to calls in the order that the calls are placed or received. If there are more calls in progress than there are CALL buttons, new calls wait until a CALL button becomes available. Pressing an unlit CALL button will enter the pro­grammed Outgoing Call feature codes for your endpoint.

Range Limits

If the Handset is at (or beyond) the range limit of the INT3000, you may see a NO SERVICE message.
If you are in standby mode, you cannot make or answer calls (the endpoint may ring intermittently) until you are back within range of the Base Unit.
If you are on a call, you hear a warning tone. Move back into range within 20 seconds.

Feature Buttons

The buttons on your INT3000 are arranged according to a programmed “keymap.” Your customer service representative, trainer, or system administrator can tell you if your keymap is different from the layout described in this guide. You can use the dia­grams on the following two pages to note any differences. Some optional feature but­tons that you may want to request include:
Scrolling Buttons: If you want to be able to scroll through displays, you need PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons.
Message Button: If you want to leave messages while on a call, scroll through waiting messages, and switch between numeric and alpha characters when enter­ing a do-not-disturb message or using the directories, you need a MSG button.
Forward Button: If you use custom do-not-disturb messages or directories, you will want a FWD button for leaving spaces and for entering two consecutive let­ters that appear on the same dialpad button. The FWD button is also used for for­warding calls.
User-Programmable Buttons: You may want most of the buttons to be user pro- grammable to allow you to choose the feature codes or extension numbers you dial.
If your INT3000 has been reprogrammed by the installer so that its feature buttons do not match the feature buttons described in this user guide, refer to the administrator’s guide for your telephone system for procedures on using feature codes. Default fea­ture codes are listed on the back of this user guide.
The feature buttons on your INT3000 are equipped with lamps. The flash rates of the lamps indicate the status of the lines, endpoints, and features assigned to the buttons. The flash rates and their meanings are explained throughout this user guide. For more detailed flash rate information, refer to your telephone system owner's guide.

INSTALLING THE INT3000

Select a location for the INT3000 that avoids excessive heat or humidity. The Base Unit of your INT3000 can be placed on a desk or tabletop near a standard 120V AC outlet and telephone line jack. The Base Unit can also be mounted on a standard wall plate using the Wall Mount Adapter. Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise (motors, fluorescent lighting, computers).
Before using your INT3000, be sure to raise the antenna to the vertical position.

Connecting the Telephone Cord

Connect the telephone cord to the jack on the back of the Base Unit and the other end to the telephone jack, as shown below.

Connecting the AC Adapters

The smaller AC Adapter, with the yellow ring on the connector, connects to the yel­low jack on the back of the Battery Charger. The other AC Adapter connects to the back of the Base Unit, as shown below.
The AC Adapters are equipped with a polarized line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If you cannot plug the AC Adapter into the outlet, contact an electrician about replacing the outlet.
FINDING YOUR WAY
NOTE: Route the power cord where it will not create a trip hazard, or where it could
become worn and create a fire or other electrical hazard.

Recharging the Battery

NOTE: You can only use your INT3000 with the Handset when it is out of the Battery
Charger.
The rechargeable Battery Pack must be fully charged before using your INT3000 for the first time (this requires 6-8 hours).
The unique design of your INT3000 allows you to place the Handset in the Battery Charger with or without the Belt Clip attached. The Battery Charger also has the abil­ity to charge a second battery, if you plan to purchase one, with or without the Hand­set being charged. The Battery Packs can automatically be recharged either in or out of the Handset.
FINDING YOUR WAY
Battery Pack
AC Adapter
Rechargeable batteries can develop a reduced charge capacity caused by repeated charge and discharge cycles. The battery life will seem to be shorter every time you use the unit. To avoid reduced charge capacity, operate the unit until the BATT LOW indicator appears. Do this at least once a month. Avoid “topping off” the charge after using the endpoint for a short time.
Low Battery Indicator
When the Battery Pack in the Handset is low and needs to be charged, you will see a LOW message on the display. If you are on a call, only the TALK button will operate and the Handset beeps every 3 seconds. In standby mode, no buttons operate and the Handset beeps every 15 seconds for up to 15 minutes.
Complete your call as quickly as possible and return the Handset to the Battery Charger for charging, or replace the Handset Battery Pack with another charged Bat­tery Pack.

ABOUT VOICE MAIL

Voice mail is an application that is part of the Inter-Tel voice processing system. Using voice mail, you and other callers can send and receive recorded messages from any supported endpoint on the system. To use voice mail features, each user (or sub­scriber) is assigned a mailbox, which usually corresponds to the extension number assigned to your endpoint. 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 mailbox, you can use personal or system greetings to let callers know if you are out of town, on a call, etc. If a caller reaches your mailbox, they can leave a message, hang up, or access an attendant. In addition, if your voice mail administrator sets up one or more “group lists” of mailboxes, you can send a message to a group of people by entering one number instead of everyone’s individual mailbox number.
Inter-Tel voice mail systems support the following types of mailboxes:
Advanced Mailbox: If E-Mail Reader is enabled for your mailbox, you have
access to voice mail, e-mail, and fax messages in your mailbox. You can also cus­tomize your personal mailbox options, and access advanced messaging features. See page 75 for information and instructions about using E-Mail Reader features. For a voice mail flowchart for advanced mailbox users, see page 87.
Standard Voice Mailbox: This type of mailbox allows you to send and receive
voice mail messages, record personal greetings, and allows you to customize per­sonal mailbox options. A standard voice mailbox does not allow you to access e­mail and fax messages. For a voice mail flowchart for standard mailbox users, see page 103.

access to advanced communication and messaging features such as E-Mail Reader and Automatic Speech Recognition (ARS). For more information about EM, see

Enterprise Messaging

Enterprise Messaging (EM) is the Inter-Tel messaging system that uses industry-stan­dard protocols for communication and messaging. EM unifies communication and messaging by providing access to voice mail, fax, and e-mail messages in your mail­box. The EM system provides voice mail users with the following advanced messag­ing features:
Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR): ASR can be enabled for the entire sys-
tem or it can be enabled for specific applications (like voice mail) or mailboxes. When ASR is enabled for your mailbox, you can issue spoken commands to navi­gate the voice mail menus. ASR also allows subscribers and non-subscribers to navigate automated attendant menus, call routing applications, and search the directories. ASR can be enabled for standard voice mailboxes and advanced mail­boxes (see page 78). For more information about ASR, see page 18.
E-Mail Reader: E-Mail Reader allows you to access voice, e-mail, and fax mes-
sages from your mailbox. For e-mail messages, E-mail Reader uses Text-to­Speech (TTS) capabilities included with EM to convert the text in an e-mail mes­sage to a .wav file. For fax messages, E-Mail Reader announces the fax enve­lope. If E-Mail Reader has been enabled for your mailbox, your voice mail, e­mail, and fax messages are unified in one convenient location. For more informa­tion and instructions about how to use E-Mail Reader features, see the Using E- Mail Reader section, starting on page 75.
Consult your voice mail administrator to see if ASR and/or E-Mail Reader is enabled for your mailbox.
FINDING YOUR WAY
NOTE: EM also includes Unified Messaging inbound and outbound faxing capabilities.
For information and instructions about Unified Messaging features, see Issue 2.3 of the Unified Messaging User Guide, part number 550.8121.

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR)

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is a feature available for systems using EM. Because ASR is a very flexible feature, it can be enabled or disabled on several differ­ent levels. When ASR is enabled for your mailbox, you can issue spoken commands to navigate the voice mail menus. ASR also allows subscribers and non-subscribers to navigate automated attendant menus, call routing applications, and search the directo­ries using voice commands.
When you access voice mail, if you are given the option to say a command or press a dialpad digit to complete a task, then ASR is enabled for your mailbox. If you are only prompted to press a dialpad digit, ASR is not enabled for your mailbox. If your mailbox is not ASR-enabled, you can still navigate the menus and perform tasks by pressing the appropriate dialpad digits when prompted by the system.
When using ASR, follow these guidelines for best results:
When completing a mailbox-related task, either say the command each time or
press the dialpad digits each time.
Use the handset when issuing spoken commands. Your endpoint’s speaker can
pick up background noise and other sounds, which may cause the system to mis­interpret a command.
Voice mail command words are shown on display endpoints. If your endpoint has
a display and you don’t hear the command word when the prompt is announced, look at the display for the appropriate voice command.
When you use the dialpad digits to complete a task, you are sometimes prompted
to press to indicate to the system that you have finished entering digits. It is not necessary to say “Pound” or “Hash” when using ASR. The silence that fol­lows your voice command replaces the digit.
While you are recording a message, ASR is temporarily disabled, therefore you
cannot issue spoken commands to access options like pause and erase. If you attempt to issue a spoken command while you are recording, your recording will include the command you issued. To access the pause and erase options, you must press the appropriate dialpad digits.
You cannot use ASR to set up your e-mail password (see page 79). For security
reasons, you must enter your e-mail password characters by pressing the appro­priate dialpad digits. Entering passwords this way prevents others from overhear­ing your password.
If the system cannot interpret your voice commands for three consecutive
attempts, ASR is temporarily disabled by the system for the current call. You can still complete tasks using the dialpad digits; however, you will no longer be prompted to say a command.
You can temporarily disable ASR for the current call by selecting option eight
from the main menu.
