Introduction

Take a few minutes to explore this guide – it contains all the information you need to operate the SUPERCONSOLE 1000® Attendant Console.

The first section introduces you to the console. You will learn what each group of keys does and how to interpret information on the console display. This section also contains information about how to use this guide.

A note about feature availability

The features available on your telephone system have been selected by your company and may not include all the features described in this guide.

About the Console

Before you begin

Before operating the console, check that the display shows [F1> through [F0> and the correct time and date. Also, make sure the handset is plugged into the side of the console.

If any problems occur, contact your communications department for assistance.

The other cursor control keys are used along with the key for applications such as Hotel/Motel guest service and Customer Data Entry.

11

SUPERCONSOLE 1000® User Guide

Fixed Keys

The Fixed keys are arranged in two rows of seven keys. You use them to perform basic operations such as answering calls and placing calls on hold.

Each key in the bottom row has a lamp that indicates the status of a call or feature. For example, when you use a Hold key to place a call on hold, the lamp above the key lights.

Getting Started

Softkeys

Softkeys have functions that change depending on the state of the call you are handling or the feature you are using. For example, when you call a busy extension the display will show the softkey functions that are available for handling the call. One of these functions is Override, another is Msg Waiting.

The [F1> to [F0> labels on the display correspond to the [F1> to [F0> keys on the consoles. To use a softkey function, press the [F1> to [F0> key that corresponds to the display label for that function.

Console Display

During call handling, the upper two lines identify the SOURCE or calling party and the DESTINATION or called party.

The two lower lines, labeled [F1> to [F0>, show the current softkey labels. For example, if [F8> is labeled [Override], pressing [F8> lets you override a busy extension’s conversation. At another time, the same key, [F8>, could be labeled [Night 1]. Now, pressing [F8> places the console in Night 1 operation.

13

SUPERCONSOLE 1000® User Guide

14

Getting Started

Adjusting the Console

Selecting the Ringing Output

You can route the ringing that accompanies an incoming call to the handset/headset instead of the console speaker.

To select the ringing output:

1.Press Cancel while holding down theFunction key.

2.Press the [F3> softkey to toggle the output.

3.Press the [F2> softkey to save the change and exit the menu.

Note: Emergency 911 calls always ring through the console speaker, regardless of the Ringing Output setting.

Turning the New Call Ring Off/On

The New Call Ring is a single burst of ringing that can signal the arrival of a second call while the first call is in progress. If the New Call Ring is off, the only way to know that calls are waiting is by the C/W indicator on the console display.

To turn the New Call Ring off/on:

1.Press Cancel while holding down theFunction key.

2.Press the [F4> softkey to turn New Call Ring off or on.

3.Press the [F2> softkey to save the change and exit the menu.

Notes:

1.With the ringing output routed to the handset/headset, the New Call Ring will momentarily interrupt the voice of the first caller.

2.Emergency 911 calls always ring regardless of the New Call Ring setting.

15

SUPERCONSOLE 1000® User Guide

Adjusting the Ringer Volume

To raise or lower the ringer volume while the console is ringing:

1.

Press and release the Volume key to increase or the

Volumekey

 

to decrease the volume.

 

2.

Repeat until the ringing is at the volume you want.

 

Adjusting the Handset and Headset Receiver Volume

The Volume keys adjust the volume of the console ringer and the volume of the handset and headset receiver. Although you can have a handset and a headset connected to the console at the same time, the receiver volume for each is not individually adjustable; any volume adjustments you make affect both the handset and the headset.

To adjust the handset and headset receiver volume while a call is in progress and the console is not ringing, or while the console is idle:

Press repeatedly to increase the volume or to decrease it.

!Warning: Because continuous exposure to loud sounds can contribute to hearing loss, keep the volume at a moderate level.

Turning the Console Bell (Ringer) Off/On

When the bell is off, a flashing Answer key and the C/W indicator on the display are the only indications that calls are waiting to be answered.

To turn the bell on or off:

1.Press Function.

2.Press [BELL OFF] or [BELL ON].

Switching to Night/Day Service

Incoming calls that normally ring the console during the day can ring another answering point at night. Your system may have one or two night service modes called Night 1 and Night 2. The mode you should select depends on system programming.

16

Getting Started

Any attendant can switch the system into night or day service. When the system is in night service, the night status indicator (Night 1 or Night 2) displays on all consoles.

To switch to night or day service:

1. Press Function.

2. Press [NIGHT 1], [NIGHT 2], or [DAY] as required.

You can change the Night1 and Night2 answering points for individual trunks from the console. For more information, see page 50.

Setting the Console Language

The console can display call-handling information and softkey prompts in English, French or Spanish. (Other languages may be available depending on system programming.)

To change languages:

1.Press Function.

2.Press [LANGUAGE].

3.Press the softkey that corresponds to the language you want.

Attendant Console Lockout

You can enter an access code to restrict the capabilities of the attendant console. This prevents system tampering via the console when you leave it unattended—for example, during breaks. When the console is locked out, it cannot be used to place outgoing trunk calls or to access console functions, except 911 Call alarms. You can still use the console to place internal calls and to answer incoming trunk calls.

To lock out the console (cannot have calls connected):

Enter the console Lockout access code. (Ask your communications department for the code.)

The display shows “Console in Restricted Service.”

To return the console to normal operation:

Re-enter the console Lockout access code.

17

SUPERCONSOLE 1000® User Guide

Programming Macros

If you frequently perform a console task that requires several keystrokes, you can automate the task using a macro. A macro is a series of keystrokes that you assign to a single key. Instead of repeating the keystrokes each time you want to perform a task, you can press the macro key to execute all the keystrokes at once.

Macros are designed to facilitate the transfer of calls to voice mail or for recovering calls released to the wrong extension. You can also use macro keys for one-button dialing of frequently called telephone numbers; programming macros for other uses is not recommended.

The two unlabelled keys on the console (circled in the illustration below) is available for programming as a macro keys. You can also reprogram the Trunk Group and Set Page keys and use them as macro keys instead.

To program a macro or to clear a previously programmed macro:

1.While holding down the Function key, press the softkey that corresponds to the firmkey you want to program.

The display shows the macro keystrokes (if any) currently programmed to the selected key.

18

Getting Started

2.Enter the keystrokes you want to include in your macro.

You can enter up to 15 keystrokes using the dial pad keys and the special function softkeys explained below.

Use the ← key to correct any mistakes.

Tip: Write down the keystrokes in case you experience problems with the console and have to reprogram your macros.

3.To clear a previously programmed macro, press the [CLEAR] softkey.

4.Clearing macros from keys formerly programmed as Trunk Group or Set Page keys restores their original function.

5.Press the [SAVE/EXIT] softkey to complete the programming.

6. Select another firmkey to program or press the [EXIT] softkey to leave programming mode.

Using a SUPERSET™ PKM48 with the Console

Up to two SUPERSET PKM48 modules can be connected to the console. The keys on the modules are programmed by your system administrator as Direct Station Select (DSS)/Busy Lamp Field (BLF) keys. Each key has a lamp that indicates the status of the associated line or extension.

When line/extension is:

the indicator is:

 

 

Idle

Off

 

 

Busy

On

 

 

Ringing

Slow Flash

 

 

On Hold

Fast Flash

 

 

Note: Using a PKM48 module with the console requires LIGHTWARE™ 18, Release 1 software. The console supports the connection of either PKM48 modules or a printer; if both are connected only one will function.

Powering the Console

The console features a back-lit LCD display for better viewing under a wide range of lighting conditions. Power for the display is supplied by an AC adapter (included with the console). The adapter also powers the console printer port and the optional PKM48 modules.

Call Handling

Answering Calls

Ringing and a flashing Answerkey indicate the arrival of a call. The number next to C/W in the display indicates how many calls are waiting to be answered.

The information displayed next to the softkeys F1 to F0 indicate the actions you can take by pressing the corresponding softkey.

For example, you can answer an outside (trunk) call by pressing [LDN 1] (Listed Directory Number 1), or an internal (extension) call by pressing

[DIAL 0].

The following softkey prompts can accompany an incoming call:

[RECALL]

[INTERNAL]

[DIAL 0]

[PRIORITY 0]

[NIGHT ANS]

[LDN 1], [LDN 2], ... [LDN 9]

or any pre-programmed customer-specific information (for example, your company may choose to display [Line 1] instead of [Ldn 1].

The [INTERNAL] softkey indicates calls to a specific attendant made by dialing the console’s internal directory number (as opposed to dialing “0”). The other prompts are explained elsewhere in the guide.

25

SUPERCONSOLE 1000® User Guide

To answer calls:

Do one of the following:

Press Answer to answer the first call in the queue.

Press a softkey (F1 – F0) to answer a specific type of call.

The first line of the display shows >>> SRC followed by an extension number and name for an internal call, or a trunk number for an external call. The DST line (the second line) remains blank until you dial a destination number.

New Call Indication

When you are engaged in a call, a single burst of ringing signals the next incoming call. The ringing is optional; see Turning the New Call Ring Off/On on page 15 for more information. Subsequent calls do not ring the console—even with the New Call Ring turned on. The only way to tell that calls are waiting is by the C/W indicator on the console display.

The console can be programmed at the system level to provide a single burst of tone at regular intervals when calls are waiting.

When Multiple Calls are Waiting

You cannot answer a new call until the one you are engaged in is transferred, disconnected, or put on hold.

Extending (Transferring) Calls

When a caller requests to speak to someone, ask the caller to wait a moment, and then transfer the call to the requested destination.

To extend a call:

1. Dial the destination number.

The caller is automatically placed on hold while you complete the transfer.

2. When you hear ringing, press toReleaseconnect the caller to the destination and release the console from the call.

26

Misdialed Numbers

If you do not want to complete dialing, or if you misdial a number, either

Press to erase the misdialed digits, and then dial the correct number.

- or-

Press Cancel to return to the Source party, and then redial the number.

Reaching a Busy Destination or an Extension with Do Not Disturb Activated

If the called destination is busy or the extension has Do Not Disturb activated, the display will show “Busy” or “DND” on the DST line.

In both cases, your options for handling the call are the same, except for the Callback option, which only applies when calling a busy destination.

To handle a call to a busy destination or an extension with Do Not Disturb activated:

Press [SOURCE] to return to the caller requesting the transfer.

Press Cancel to disconnect the destination so that you can dial a new one.

Press Release to camp the caller on to the busy destination or disconnect the source. (For an explanation of camp-on, see page 86.) If the transfer is not allowed, you will hear a beep tone and “CANT” will show on the display.

Press [OVERRIDE] to break into the busy extension. For more information on using Override, see page 36.

Press [SEND MSG] to send a message waiting indication to the called extension. For more information on Message Waiting, see page 35.

Press [CALLBACK] to receive notification when the destination is free.

If you reach a busy extension or you are placing an outside call and all of the trunks are busy, you can request an automatic Callback. The system monitors the line and rings the console when the line becomes free. When you answer a Callback at the console, the top line of the display will show “CALLBACK.” Callbacks on outside calls are used when all system trunks are busy, not when the called party is busy.

27

SUPERCONSOLE 1000® User Guide

Reaching an Extension with an Advisory Message
