ABOUT THIS BOOK
Your iDCS keyset is the most visible part of your telephone system. No matter what
model keyset you are using telephone calls are handled the same way. The 28D
and 18D keysets have additional conveniences that are not available to 8D keyset
users.These are noted throughout this guide.
Please take the time to study this guide and to become familiar with the operation
of your keyset. Keep this guide handy. You may need to look up instructions for
infrequently used features.
Learning to use your keyset correctly will make everyday telephone communications a breeze.
This book is written based on the factory default settings for the feature access
codes. Sometimes, due to programming requirements, these codes may be
changed. If you find that a feature code does not work as described in this book,
please contact your installation and service company to determine the correct
code.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
USER ORIENTATION
iDCS telephones are called “keysets.” They contain buttons or “keys”that are used
to access or activate the many features of your office phone system.The keys with
paper designation strips are programmable keys. This means they can be programmed for a specific function on your keyset and that same button can be
something different on another keyset. See the system manager to get your most
frequently used features assigned to your programmable keys.When changes are
made, be sure that your programmable keys are relabeled properly.
Lines from the telephone company are “C.O. lines.”Calls on these lines are referred
to as “outside calls.”Your system can have individual C.O.line keys or lines may be
assigned to groups. When they are in a group, you access a line by dialing an
access code or pressing a route button. For example, dial 9 or press a “LOCAL” key
to get a local outside line. If Least Cost Routing is used,pressing the “LCR” key will
automatically select a preprogrammed C.O. line according to what digits are
dialed.Each line in the system is numbered,beginning with 701, then 702,703, etc.
Direct Station Selection (DSS) keys are programmed to ring specific stations. You
can press a DSS key instead of dialing the extension number.A DSS key lights red
when that station is busy (Busy Lamp Indication).
iDCS keysets provide distinctive ring patterns:
• Outside calls have a single ring tone repeated.
• Internal calls have a double ring tone repeated.
• Door phone calls and alarm/appointment reminders have a triple ring tone
repeated.
CALL INDICATIONS
The keys on your phone have light emitting diodes (LEDs). These are tri-colored
LEDs that light green, red or amber (green and red together).
Intercom calls,also called internal calls, always appear on your CALL buttons.They
will always light green.You can have up to eight CALL buttons,but at least two are
recommended.
Outside calls appear on individual line keys if they are assigned.When an individual line is not assigned to its own key,it will appear on a CALL button.
3
Your outside calls will light green on your keyset and red on other keysets. You
never lose sight of your calls while they are on hold.They stay right where you put
them and are identified with a green flashing light.
Some simple rules to remember:
• Any steady LED indicates the line or feature is in use.
• A fast flashing green LED indicates a new call ringing in.
• A slow flashing green or red LED indicates a call is on hold.
• A slow flashing amber LED indicates a recall to your keyset.
SPEAKERPHONE
All iDCS keysets are speaker phones. Pressing the ANS/RLS key will answer or
release a call on the speakerphone. Switching from the handset to the speakerphone is easy.Press the SPEAKER key and hang up the handset.
VOLUME CONTROLS
The iDCS keysets use the UP and DOWN keys to adjust the ringer volume while the
keyset is ringing, the speaker volume while the speakerphone is in use and the
handset volume while you are listening.These three levels will be stored in memory until changed. If background music is turned on at your keyset, the volume
keys will also control the level of music. The volume of pages heard through the
speaker of a keyset can be adjusted during a page announcement by using the
volume keys.There are 16 levels for each volume setting. The volume of off-hook
ring is controlled by a user-programmable setting.
TERMINAL STATUS INDICATOR
The terminal status indicator light is positioned on the top right corner of the keyset above the display.The terminal status indicator is a tri-colored (red, green, and
amber) light that provides greater visibility of your keysets status than the individual key LEDs.The terminal status indicator provides the following indications:
• Busy/Off Hook Steady Red
• Intercom Ring Flashing Red
• Outside Call Ring Flashing Green
• Recall Ring Flashing Amber
• Message Waiting Flashing Red
• Do Not Disturb Fast Flash Red at 1 Second Intervals

KEYSET DAUGHTER MODULES
[28 AND 18 BUTTON KEYSETS ONLY]
iDCS 28D and 18D button keysets can have one of three different types of daughter module installed on them to enhance the operation of the keyset or to provide
an additional local port depending on the type of module.
iDCS KDB-DIGITAL LINE
INTERFACE (FKDBD)
If your keyset is connected to a Digital Line Interface (DLI) port that supports 2B+D
operation (your installing company can determine this) you may install a daughter module that provides a Digital Line Interface (DLI) port for connection of a digital station device such as a keyset or 64 button module.
iDCS KDB-SINGLE LINE
INTERFACE (FKDBS)
If your keyset is connected to a Digital Line Interface (DLI) port that supports 2B+D
operation (your installing company can determine this) you may install a daughter module that provides a Single Line Interface (SLI) port for connection of a standard telephone device such as a cordless phone.
iDCS KDB-FULL DUPLEX (FKDBF)
The standard speakerphone mode of operation for a iDCS keyset is “half duplex”.
This means that you cannot transmit and receive speech at the same time.Adding
a FKDBF to your keyset will convert the speakerphone into full duplex mode
enhancing its operation. In addition the FKDBF may have up to three (3) external
microphones attached to it for conference room type applications.These microphones require an “EXTMIC” key programmed on the keyset to activate or deactivate them.
