Introduction

Using this Guide

This guide is for the DT1 phone used on the INDeX telephone system.
To check what type of phone you have, look at the label on its base.

Whilst this guide covers all the features supported by the DT1, your DT 1
may not be able to use of them. If unsure of which features you can use,
contact your System Manager.

–

Network Features:

Your phone system may be part of a network linking several sites.
Wherever possible, it treats network calls as internal calls and offers
the same features. However, this depends on the type of net work
link and type of system at the other end of the link.

Further Help

"Why don't you do
something to help me?"

Stan Laurel 1947.

In all instances, first seek help from your System Manager. They will
seek further assistance from your system's Maintainer if necessary.

DT1 Phone Features

Introduction to the DT1

"When at last this little
instrument appeared,
consisting, as it does, of
parts everyone of which is
familiar to us, and capable of
being put together by an
amateur, the disappointment
arising from its humble
appearance was only
partially relieved on finding
that it was really able to talk."

James Clerk Maxwell, "The
Telephone" 1878

The diagram shows the main features of a DT1 phone.

The system supports a wide range of other phone types for different
applications and uses (see "Glossary" on page 30).

Handsfree (Speaker) & Answer Release

On all DT phones you can dial and hear the call progress without using
the handset (known as "on-hook dialling").

When answered, on the DT1 you can continue the call without using the
handset, ie. handsfree. You can switch between handsf r ee and handset
during a call.

On all the DT phones, pressing the

ANSWER RELEASE

key has the

same effect as lifting or replacing the handset.

Making Calls

Notes on Making Calls

Your DT1 phone allows very simple and quick dialling to make calls. To
simplify dialling further, the system can store several hundred speed
dials for use by any extension (see page 10). You can also store your
own frequently needed numbers as speed dials.

Call Barring

The system can bar you from dialling particular numbers or types of
numbers (eg. national, international). Typically call barring increases
when the system puts the phone's area into night service.

Call barring can also change according to time, date and day of the
week. As the call barring settings vary for each site, this guide cannot
fully detailed their effect.

Making External Calls

"E.T. phone home" Steven
Spielberg 1982.

Redial - Alias:

- Last number redial

- Saved number redial.

The system may apply call barring to some or all external numbers (see
Call Barring above). You can also lock you DT1 (see page 25) or bar it
by wrong passcode entry (see page 24).

To dial an external call:

1. Dial 9 (Your System Manager will inform you if you need to dial a

different number).

2. If the DT1 gives three tones, it requires either a PIN or account code

before allowing the call.

3. Dial the external telephone number.

4. When answered, either pickup the handset or continue the call

handsfree.

5. During the call you can do several actions;

– Park, hold or transfer the call (see page 18).
– Perform various other actions (see page 14).

6. To end, dial

ANSWER RELEASE

or replace the handset.

To redial the last external number used:

1. Dial

REDIAL

to repeat the last external number used (including

speed dials).

Making Calls – Page 9

INDeX - DT1 Phone Guide 38GDE00001SAC - Issue 4 (January 1999)

Making Internal Calls

"Hello, Neil and Buzz. I'm
talking to you by telephone
from the Oval Room at the
White House, and this
certainly has to be the most
historic telephone call ever
made." Richard Nixon

1969.

The method below uses normal dialling to make internal calls.

To dial an internal call:

1. Dial the extension number. A triple-tone means that the extension
called is diverting calls to an external number (DT-3/4/5 phones).

2. If unanswered, the DT1 provides options to wait or notify t he
extension you called (see page 12).

3. If answered, either pickup the handset or continue the call
handsfree. During the call, the DT1 provides a range of further
actions (see page 14).

4. To end, dial

ANSWER RELEASE

or replace the handset.

Making a Page Call

Page Call - Alias:

- Broadcast

- Zone paging.

You can page any INDeX DT or TT phone or group of such phones.
They hear the call without doing anything though you cannot hear them.
If wanted, they can turn the page into a normal call (see page 16). If the
phone paged is diverting calls, the page also diverts (except group
pages).

To page an extension or group:

1. Dial

FEATURE 4

.

2. Pickup the handset or continue handsfree.

3. Dial the extension or group number.

4. If the extension is busy or set to No Calls, you can wait or leave a
message (see page 12).

5. Speak and then dial

ANSWER RELEASE

.

Speed Dials, PIN's & Account Codes

Using Speed Dials

Speed Dials - Alias:

- Abbreviated dialling

The system can store telephone numbers in speed dial stores. You can
then ring those numbers by dialling the number of the speed dial store.

–

System speed dials:

All extensions can use these, though still

subject to call barring. Ask your System Manager for a list .

–

Personal speed dials:

You can store up to 10 speed dials for your

own use (see below).

To use a speed dial:

1. Dial

SPEED DIAL

and then the speed dial store number (00 to 09

for personal speed dials and 100 to 999 for system speed dials).

2. If the DT1 gives three tones, it requires either a PIN code or account
code before allowing the call, check with your System Manager.

3. Continue as for a normal external call (see page 8).

Storing Personal Speed Dials

If external, prefix a 9 to the speed dial number, this is the normal
number to seize an external line. Your System Manager will inform you if
you have to add a different prefix before external numbers

1. Without lifting the handset, dial
