Groups and Intercom Extensions
Each telephone in the system has a 2-digit intercom
extension number. The intercom extensions are grouped
according to the numbers on the right. Groups are used for
some features, such as group paging and picking up a call
within a group. Consider carefully how intercom extension
numbers are assigned to the people in the system so that
the group features are used most efficiently for your
company. The numbers do not have to be consecutive; for
instance, you may have intercom extensions 10 through
15, 18 through 22, and 28 through 33 in your system,

NOTE: When you assign intercom extension numbers to users, remember that all customization
of the system must be done at telephone set 10, and when users dial 0 (zero) using the intercom,
they reach intercom extension 10.

How to Use this Manual
This manual is divided into two basic sections. Following is a description of the parts of the manual.
Customizing (Section 1)
The
SPIRIT
This means that, as the administrator of the system, you will be able to change how some features
operate. The system can be used just as it is installed. You may, however, want to take
advantage of some of the customizing options. You can do as much or as little customizing as
you choose. Section 1 of the manual tells you how to customize the system.
Customization is easy to do and doesn’t have to be permanent. Your system is flexible and easy
to change. As you use the system you may think of other changes you want to make, so don’t be
concerned that you have to make all your customizing decisions right now.
Section 1 includes the six kinds of customization possible. These are:
■
System Reset - 0
The reset procedure describes how to return all customization to the installed, or factory-set
values, except

Telephone Features (instructions for customizing begin on page 18)
Telephone customization is used to make different telephones in the system work in different ways.
■
LINE BUTTON ASSIGNMENTS
— The telephones in your system have six or twenty-four
buttons that can be line buttons assigned by you or multi-purpose buttons that the user programs
(see User Manual). When you have assigned a line to a button, that button cannot be used
for anything else unless you change the customization for that telephone.
You can assign any outside line to a button on any telephone. The system determines to what
button the line will be assigned (ascending order, starting with button 1 — see page 9). The
installed setting assigns the first 12 lines to the first 12 buttons on 24-button sets and the first
6 lines to the 6 buttons on a 6-button set. If you have fewer than 12 lines, for proper operation
"remove" the "lines" you don’t have (See page 20). Remember, the more line buttons you
assign to a telephone, the fewer
SpeedCall
and Intercom Extension buttons the telephone can
have. After a line is assigned to a button, the user can select the line by pressing the button. If a
line is not assigned to a button on a particular telephone, the user can select the line by dialing
a code (see User Manual).
■
LINE USE PERMISSION
— You can assign to each line of each telephone one of the following
permissions. All lines may be customized for LINE USE PERMISSION, including those lines not
assigned to buttons on the telephone.
●
No Permission.
The telephone may not use that line at all except when a call on that line
is transferred to it.
●
Full Permission.
The user may place and answer calls on that line.
(Installed setting)
●
Answer Only Permission.
■
AUTOMATIC LINE SELECTION
The user may answer calls or retrieve held calls on that line.
— This feature provides the dial tone when you pick up the
receiver, without having to first select a line by pressing a line button. The SPIRIT system has
been factory set to assign Line 2 as the first choice for outgoing calls. This cannot be changed.

How to Use the System Planner and the Customization Chart
A
System Planner
is provided on pages 8 and 9 to guide you in planning how you will customize
your system. The System Planner is not only a useful guide in the decision-making process of
setting up your system, but also provides a valuable record of the system.
The planner should
be changed each time the system is changed.
Record your system-wide decisions on the first page or a copy of the first page of the planner.
You may want to use pencil so that you can make changes in the future. Make a copy of the
second page of the planner for each telephone in your system. Using one copy of the telephone
section of the planner for each telephone in your system, record your telephone customization
decisions.
When the System Planner is complete you can start customizing your system. After becoming
familiar with the confirmation and error tones (see page 12), the customization chart on pages
10 and 11 may be all you will need to complete the customization of your system. More
detailed instructions, however, begin on page 12.
If you use the customization chart on pages 10 and 11, remember to follow the dotted line path.
As on the System Planner, grey-shaded areas are the system features and green-shaded areas
are the telephone features.

How to Customize
Getting Started
When you have finished your plans you are ready to customize the system.
customizing from telephone set 10, which must be a 24-button set.
You cannot use an attendant
You must do all
adjunct for customization. For telephone customization, including the COPY functions, the
telephone(s) being customized must not be in use. If you want to reset the system, all
telephones in the system (except set 10) must not be in use, so you will want to choose a time
when people are not using their telephones.
If you want, you can plan for future needs while you customize. If your system is not at
capacity (for instance, you have 18 lines and 30 telephones in your
SPIRIT
system now,
but plan to expand to 24 lines and 40 telephones in the future) you may customize the unequipped
lines and extensions now. For proper operation of AUTOMATIC LINE SELECTION, you
should customize LINE TYPE as
Unavailable
for the unequipped lines.
Confirmation and Error Tones
Throughout this manual you are told that you will receive a
dialing and an
error
tone when you have made a mistake. It is important to become familiar
with the confirmation and error tones before you start customizing the system. The following
exercise provides examples of these tones.
Following are step-by-step instructions for customizing.
■
STEP 1 PRESS ONE OF THE INTERCOM BUTTONS ON TELEPHONE SET 10
An INTERCOM button press times out after five seconds. If more than five seconds elapse
before you proceed to STEP 2, press the INTERCOM button again.
■
STEP 2 PRESS SPEAKER (or lift the receiver)
You will hear a dial tone.
■ STEP 3 DIAL ✱ 9 2 4 4 8
You will hear a confirmation tone. If you do not hear the confirmation tone, hang up and
start over.
■
STEP 4 PLACE ADMINISTRATION OVERLAY
(This step is not necessary if you are going to reset features back to the installed setting or
enter SpeedCall numbers and do no other customization.)
Place the administration overlay on telephone set 10. The overlay is provided in the pocket on
the back cover of this manual. The ENTER ADMIN light will be on to show that the system is
ready for administration. No calls may come in to or go out from telephone set 10 during
customization.
■
STEP 5 CHOOSE KIND OF CUSTOMIZATION
The chart on pages 10 and 11 shows six customizing choices at the top. The chart also shows
what customizable features are reached through each choice. Using the chart as a guide, make
the appropriate choice.

■
STEP 7 BEGIN ANOTHER KIND OF CUSTOMIZATION
To continue with another kind of customization, press the ENTER ADMIN button and repeat
steps 5 and 6. For example, if you complete the desired customization under System Customization and want to continue with Telephone Customization, press the ENTER ADMIN button
and repeat steps 5 and 6.
■ STEP 8 EXIT CUSTOMIZATION
When you are finished or want to stop customizing, replace the receiver (or press SPEAKER).
Replace the Administration Overlay in the pocket on the back cover of this manual.

System Reset to Factory-Set Values-0
CAUTION: Use of reset eliminates all customization.
If you dialed 0 in STEP 5 on page 13, and if all telephones except the one you are using are idle,
you can reset the system to the installed settings shown on the chart on pages 10-11. If all telephones
are not idle, you will hear the busy signal.
Enter the System Reset code 09009. If you make a mistake you will hear the error tone, and
you must exit and re-enter reset to try again (press ENTER ADMIN and dial 0). If you enter
the reset code successfully you will hear the confirmation tone and and all features except

Lines 1 through 12 again will be assigned to buttons 1 through 12 on all telephones. If any
telephones were customized so that some of those buttons were multi-purpose, and those
buttons were programmed by the users, one-touch access to Personal
other user programming for those buttons will be lost. User programming of buttons 13 through
24 will be unaffected.
The reset procedure requires up to five seconds. You will hear the confirmation tone after the
procedure is completed.
To exit you may replace the receiver or press SPEAKER, or, if you want to continue customizing
features, press the ENTER ADMIN button to reenter administration at STEP 5 on page 13.

System Customization - 1
If you dialed 1 in STEP 5 on page 13 you began System Customization. The features on the
following pages may be programmed in any order, and you may exit customization at any time,
leaving unchanged features at previously-set values. You may also use System Customization
to check the setting of a feature. You do not have to make changes.
Features are customized by entering a digit, as shown on the following pages. If the digit you
enter is valid, you will hear a confirmation tone and the indicator light(s) will reflect the new
setting. If the digit you enter is not valid, you will hear the error tone and the system will
remain ready to customize that feature until a valid digit is entered or you exit the feature.
No change will be made in a feature until you hear a confirmation tone.
After customizing a feature, you may do any of the following:
●
press the FEATURE button to customize another feature
●
press the ENTER ADMIN button to go back to STEP 5
●
hang up the receiver or press SPEAKER to exit customization
During customization, all the buttons on your 24-button set
at station 10 represent lines. Numbering starts at the lower
left with line 1 (see illustration). When you are customizing
a feature that is not changed on a line-by-line basis, the
Line 1 indicator light will show the current status of the
feature. When you are customizing a feature that is changed
on a line-by-line basis (line selectable), the status of
each line
will be shown on the indicator light for that line.

If you dialed 2 in STEP 5 on page 13, you began Telephone Customization. The features on the
following pages may be programmed in any order, and you may exit customization at any time,
leaving unchanged features at previously-set values. You may also use Telephone Customization
to check the setting of a feature. You do not have to make changes.
Features are customized by entering a digit, as shown on the following pages, If the digit you
enter is valid, you will hear a confirmation tone, and the indicator light(s) will reflect the new
setting. If the digit you enter is not valid, you will hear the error tone and the system will
remain ready to customize that feature until a valid digit is entered or you exit the feature.
No change will be made until you hear the confirmation tone.
All telephone features are customized on a set-by-set basis, so you must enter the telephone
number before customizing. The changes you make on set 12, for example, will not be made on
set 14, or any other, unless you specifically copy a customizing set-up from one telephone to
another. Making changes via Telephone Customization is not always necessary for all telephones.
You may, for example, want to leave all the telephones except one at the installed setting for
a feature.
EXAMPLE: All of the telephones except set 16 are used by employees who should not be
restricted from placing long distance calls. Set 16, however, is in the lobby, and is used by
company visitors. You might want to set OUTSIDE SERVICE on the lobby telephone

During customization, all the buttons on your 24-button set represent line buttons. Numbering
starts at the lower left with line 1 (see illustration, page 15). When you are customizing a
feature that is not changed on a line-by-line basis, the Line 1 indicator light will show the
current status of the feature on that telephone. When you are customizing a feature that is
changed on a line-by-line basis (line selectable), the status of
each line
of that telephone will show
on the indicator light for that line.
When you are customizing features that require a setting for each incoming line in the system,
you do not have to press the FEATURE button for each line. Press all the line buttons for
which you want the same setting.
EXAMPLE: You are customizing LINE USE PERMISSION and you want to make lines

Telephone Customization
COPY TO is a useful procedure if you plan identical customizing for more than one set. If you
want to copy the telephone customization you have completed for one telephone to another
telephone, use the COPY TO TELEPHONE feature (see page 22). If you want to copy the telephone
customization to all the other telephones in a group, use the COPY TO GROUP feature
(see page 22). If you want to copy the telephone customization to all the other telephones in the
system, use the COPY TO ALL feature (see page 22).
EXAMPLE: You have a system with 20 telephones. The customization for all sets except sets
10 and 15 is the same. The customization for set 10 is different from the customization
for set 15.
PROCEDURE: Customize a set other than 10 or 15. Copy that customization to all sets.
Customize set 10. Customize set 15.
EXAMPLE: You have a system with 24 telephones. The sets are in three groups – Group 61,
Group 62, and Group 63. (See page 22 or page 3 for group assignments.) For customization
of the telephones in Group 61, only telephones 14 and 15 are identical. The customization
for all telephones in Group 62 matches the settings for telephone set 12 in Group 61. The
customization for all telephones in Group 63 matches the settings for telephones 14 and 15
in Group 61.
PROCEDURE: Customize set 12. Copy customization of set 12 to Group 62 using the COPY
TO GROUP feature. Customize set 13. Customize set 14. Copy the customization of set 14
to set 15 using the COPY TO TELEPHONE feature. Copy the customization of set 14 to
Group 63 using the COPY TO GROUP feature. Customize the rest of the telephones in
Group 61 (Telephones 10, 11, 13, 16, 17).
EXAMPLE: You have a system with 24 telephones. The customization for all the sets is the
same except for AUTOMATIC LINE SELECTION.
EXAMPLE: Customize set 10. Copy the customization to all sets in the system using the
COPY TO ALL feature. Customize AUTOMATIC LINE SELECTION for each set.
You can see that use of the COPY TO (COPY TO TELEPHONE, COPY TO GROUP,
and COPY TO ALL) feature may save you from having to customize every telephone
individually.
■
To customize a telephone (STATION),
Press STATION and dial the intercom extension number of the telephone to be customized.
If the telephone is being used, you will hear a busy signal and you must wait until the
telephone is not busy before you can customize it. You can press STATION and dial another

LINE BUTTON ASSIGNMENTS
Press FEATURE. Dial 1.
The line indicator lights will show which lines have or have not been assigned to buttons on
that telephone. (Line assignments are labeled on the system administration overlay and shown
in the table on page 15.) To remove a line from a button, press the line button and dial 1.
To assign a line to a button, press the line button and dial 2. You may change multiple lines
by pressing more than one line button before dialing 1 or 2. If you enter a digit without
first pressing a line button you will hear the error tone.
Lines are assigned to buttons in ascending order from left to right, bottom to top. For example,
if lines 1, 4, 5, 8, 10, and 12 are assigned to a telephone, the bottom row of buttons on that
set will be assigned lines 1, 4, and 5. The second row of buttons will be assigned lines 8, 10, and
12, in that order, left to right.
REMEMBER, the more lines you assign to buttons, the fewer
SpeedCall
and Intercom Extension
buttons the telephone can have.
The installed setting is for the first 12 lines to appear on buttons.
If you have fewer than 12 lines,
it is important to “remove” the “lines” you don’t have. To determine the number of lines to
remove, subtract the number of lines you have from 12.
If more than 6 lines are assigned to
an intercom extension number, only the first 6 lines will appear on buttons if a 6-button set is
installed at that position.
As the administrator of the system, you assign what lines will appear on a telephone. The
system automatically assigns the line to a button. It is important that each button that serves
as a line button is labeled
AT EACH TELEPHONE
and that the label includes
BOTH
the
number of the line for the system (01 through 24) and the incoming line telephone number.

No action is necessary to "start" or "stop" the Call Report feature. If a printer, personal computer
with appropriate software, or specialized hardware is installed with your system and is plugged
into the "SMDR" jack on the controller, information will be sent to it as calls are completed.
As long as the device is on, a Call Report (see page 28) will be printed.
Call Reports may contain confidential information and should be kept private.

Account Codes
Some companies find it useful to assign account codes to telephone calls. For instance, an
attorney’s office may want to be able to bill the time spent on a call to a specific client.
Account codes for Call Report purposes may be up to 16 digits long. The user must program
a multi-purpose button as an "account code" entry button (see User Manual). If the user presses
the programmed button, enters the account code, and then presses the programmed button
again, the account code will be included as part of the Call Record.
Customizing SMDR Call Report
You must enter the day of the week and the time of day when the optional equipment is
installed and after long periods without power so that the information on the report is accurate.
The reported call duration means the length of call you want to be reported—the system will
not report calls that are ended before the customized time. INCOMING calls will be reported
unless you customize the incoming Call Report feature described on the next page.
Call Report features are customized by entering a digit. If the digit you enter is valid, you will
hear a confirmation tone. If the digit you enter is not valid you will hear the error tone and the
system will remain ready to customize that feature until a valid digit is entered or you exit
the feature.
To customize the Call Report feature in your system, follow the first four customization steps
on page 13. At STEP 5, dial 4.

LA Jacks (Dedicated Lines and Power Failures)
Dedicated Lines
One jack for each four line jacks is labeled LA on the controller. LA means Line Auxiliary.
These jacks provide standard telephone service unaffected by system features and are useful as
dedicated lines for computer modems, answer/record machines, and in power failure situations.
The controller and expansion unit have a "line card" for every four incoming lines in the
system. There is one LA jack for every line card installed in your controller or expansion unit.
Each LA jack uses the same incoming line as the lowest numbered line on the card. When
the LA jack on a line card is being used (that is, the device plugged into that jack is "offhook" and
is actually being used), the lowest numbered line on that line card will be unavailable for use
by the system. Devices may be left plugged in the LA jacks, and as long as they are not in
use they will not interfere with the lines.
Power Failures
The LA jacks may be used with a standard telephone during a power failure when the rest of
the system cannot be used. Simply plug one end of a telephone line cord into one of the
LA jacks and the other end into a standard telephone.
During power failures less than 2½ days, the customization memory will be maintained;
however, the system clock will not continue to run during the power outage. If you are using
Call Reporting you should reset the time and possibly the day depending upon the length of
the power failure. During power failures of more than 2½ days, the memory will be lost and all
customized features will reset to the installed setting. Be sure to keep a record of current
customization.
Optional Equipment
The controller has jacks for a music on hold source, and an external alerter. A volume control
for the music on hold is located next to the music on hold jack on the controller. The controller
also has an SMDR (Station Message Detail Recording) jack for a serial printer or personal
computer. Several models of serial printers and personal computers are available for use with
the system, but a 355A or 355AF RS232 adapter MUST be used with ANY of this equipment.
There are also loudspeaker paging systems available for use with the
AT&T representative for more information.

Additional Feature Information
Outside Calls on INTERCOM Buttons
Features and operations that would normally require a line button can use the INTERCOM
button instead. The INTERCOM button can act as a line button for a call if no button exists
for that line on that telephone. This means not only that you may use the INTERCOM button
to access a line for which you have no button, BUT ALSO that incoming calls will ring in on
the INTERCOM button and may be answered in the normal way. The indicator light for
the INTERCOM button will act like the line button indicator light, except during held calls
(see Indicator Light Patterns in the User Manual).
Following are a few differences which may occur when you are using an INTERCOM button in
place of a line button:
●
If you hang up on such a call, the INTERCOM light will go out even if another person is still
on the call.
●
If you place the call on hold, the indicator light will show the I HOLD pattern unless the line
is still in use by another person. If the line is still in use after you place it on hold, the
indicator light will show the THEY USE pattern; for example, a line might still be in use if
someone else had bridged onto the call.
●
If you place the call on hold and the call is taken off hold at another telephone or another

INTERCOM Indicator Lights
The indicator lights next to the INTERCOM buttons show what is happening on intercom calls
or outside calls on the INTERCOM button at that telephone:
●
I USE flashes a long ON and short OFF.
●
I HOLD flashes a short ON and long OFF.
●
Incoming alert flashes an even ON and OFF.
●
If the light is OFF, that INTERCOM button is idle
A graphic description of light patterns is shown in the User Manual.
Intercom Extension Indicator Lights
Intercom Extension buttons, whether on the station adjunct or programmed for that use on a
telephone, have indicator lights that show what is happening on that telephone.

If the light is OFF the telephone is idle.
●
If the light in ON, the telephone is busy.

Conference
A maximum of four telephones may be conferenced; only three of these may be
SPIRIT
telephones. The total of four must include any telephones bridged onto the conference.
The originator of a conference call is the person who makes the initial conference. If the
originator hangs up, the call is disconnected. Only the originator can add or drop other people.
If one of the other telephones in a conference call is an intercom extension, the originator can
leave the conference call without disconnecting the other people by placing it on hold. The
32 Administration Manual
Page 35
originator can then hang up and the other people can continue the call. If none of the telephones
except the originator's is an intercom extension, the outside callers are on hold, and will not
hear each other. In either case, the originator is still considered one of the four participants
on the call, so if someone other than a conference participant sets up the conference, a total
of three people can be conferenced. The call will disconnect when all the other parties hang
up. If your system has a system attendant who will be responsible for originating the conference
calls, be sure this procedure is explained carefully.
A conference call on hold is actually without an originator, so if someone picks up a line
when a conference call is on hold, that person becomes temporary custodian of the call and will
disconnect the conference call by hanging up. When retrieving a held call, it is important that
the line or INTERCOM button that is pressed is flashing an I HOLD pattern; pressing a button
with a THEY HOLD pattern can result in hanging up on all of the other parties.
Placing and retrieving conference calls on hold can require special treatment, particularly if
outside calls appearing on an INTERCOM button are involved. You may want to form a few
practice conferences involving combinations of lines and stations so that you can set up written
guidelines for conferencing.
Depending on your situation (geographic location, number of conferees, distance between
conferees, etc.), voice quality on conference calls may be affected (distant parties may have
difficulty hearing each other).
Call Forwarding
Intercom calls may be forwarded to or from any telephone that is plugged into the controller
at the time of the forwarding. An intercept tone (continuous error tone) will result if the user
attempts to forward calls to an intercom extension that is not plugged in.
Calls may not be forwarded to an attendant adjunct. An intercept tone will result if such an
attempt is made.
Calls may be forwarded to telephones from which calls are already forwarded, but the calls will
not be forwarded again. For example, if intercom extension 12 is forwarded to 20 and
intercom extension 15 forwards calls to 12, the calls for intercom extension 15 will ring at extension
12, not extension 20.
Call forwarding allows users to switch locations temporarily without losing calls. For example,
calls to intercom extension 12 may be forwarded to 15 and calls to 15 may be forwarded to
12. Anyone dialing extension 15 would then have the call forwarded to extension 12 and the
reverse would be true for extension 12.
If a user forwards calls from one extension to the same extension number, call forwarding for
that extension is canceled.
If Auto Callback is placed to an intercom extension which has calls forwarded, the call back
signal from the extension with calls forwarded will not occur until call forward is canceled.
Turing on the message light for telephones is not forwarded, even if the intercom call was
forwarded.
Transferred calls will not be forwarded; only intercom calls can be forwarded not outside calls.
When a call comes into a telephone from which calls have been forwarded, that telephone will
ring with one very short ring. This serves as a reminder to the user that the calls have been
forwarded. It is NOT possible to answer the call at that phone.
Group Paging
When a telephone is involved in a group page, the user will not hear a ring if a call comes in.
If the user has HFAI on, it may be difficult to distinguish a group page from an HFAI intercom
call. Announcements should be phrased in such a way as to make it clear that a page is occurring.
