Important information
Location of the telephone
•The telephone should be operated in a controlled environment with an
ambient temperature between 5•C and 40•C.
•To ensure good speakerphone quality, the area in front of the microphone (front right) should be kept clear. The optimum speakerphone
distance is 50 cm.
•Do not install the telephone in a room where large quantities of dust
accumulate; this can considerably reduce the service life of the telephone.
•Do not expose the telephone to direct sunlight or any other source of
heat, as this is liable to damage the electronic components and the
plastic casing.
•Do not operate the telephone in damp environments such as bathrooms.

General information
Single-line telephone/multi-line telephone
Your OpenStage 40 is a "multi-line telephone". This means that multiple
lines can be configured, which is not the case with single-line phones.
Each line is assigned an individual phone number which you can use to
make and receive calls.
The programmable sensor keys function as line keys on multi-line phones
Æ page 22.
The "Overview" tab on the telephony interface provides information about
the lines configured on your phone and the current status of each line
Æ page 30.
A number of specific features must be considered when using a multi-line
phone to make and receive calls Æ page 112.

Using network ports more efficiently
OpenStage 40 has a built-in 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch.
OpenStage 40 G has a 1000 Mbps Ethernet switch. This means that you
can connect a PC to the LAN directly via the phone. The telephone-PC connection option must first be activated on the telephone by service personnel.
Using this connection option saves one network port for each switch used
and requires fewer or shorter network cables when arranged correctly.

Getting to know your OpenStage phone
Trunk keys (on multi-line phones only)
The programmable sensor keys on multi-line phones function as trunk
keys. Each key programmed with the "Line" function is handled as a line.
This means up to five lines can be configured.
A distinction is drawn here between primary, secondary and phantom
lines. Each of these line types can be used on a private or shared basis
Æ page 22.
Primary line
All multi-line telephones have a primary line. This line can be reached in the
usual manner via your public phone number. Incoming calls are signaled on
this line.
To avoid conflict between individual multi-line phones, the functions
"Do not disturb" and "Call forwarding" can only be used for the primary line.
Secondary line
The secondary line on your phone is used as a primary line by another subscriber of the line trunk group. Your primary line, which is configured on another telephone in the line trunk group, simultaneously functions as the
secondary line on that telephone.
Phantom line
Phantom lines are not used as primary lines by any telephones in the line
trunk group. Phantom lines are established when the number of lines provided by a communications system exceeds the number of available
telephones.
Line utilization
•Private line: A line that is used by a single telephone. This line cannot
be used as a secondary line by another telephone.
•Shared line: A line that is configured on multiple telephones. The line
status (if configured) is displayed in the "Overview" tab for all telephones that share this line. If, for example, a shared line is being used
by a telephone, a status message indicating that this line is busy is displayed on all other telephones.
•Direct call line: A line with a direct connection to another telephone.
The line status is indicated by the LED in addition to the display in the
"Overview" tab Æ page 30.

Keypad
You can only use the digits 1 to 9 and 0 as well as the * and # characters
when dialing a number. The h navigation key is used to delete from right
to left.
In cases where text input is possible, you can use the keypad to input text,
punctuation and special characters in addition to the digits 0 to 9 and the
hash and asterisk symbols. To do this, press the numerical keys repeatedly.
Example: To enter the letter "h", press the number 4 key on the keypad
twice. When entering the text, all available characters for this key are displayed. After a short while, the character in focus is displayed in the input
field.
To speed up the input, you can confirm your entry by pressing "g"
on the navigator after you have selected the required character.
To enter a digit in an alphanumerical input field, press the relevant
key and hold it down. You no longer need to scroll through the entire
list of possible characters.
