Feature Keys
Usage of Feature Keys
Your administrator can configure feature keys as line keys, short cuts to specific telephone features, or repdial keys.
Line keys connect to various telephone lines that can be used simultaneously. For examp le, you can pu t a party on HOLD on one line and dial another party on another line.
You can press configured system feature keys to gain access to system telephone features, such as HOLD, TRANSFER, MAILBOX, and PROGRAM/SERVICE.
Repdial keys are keys you can program as on e-touch key s to telephone numbers or extensions you dial often.
When you get your telephone, the feature keys will be labeled on the faceplate. Labeling terminolo gy is up to your company . For example, your administrator might label the HOLD key “HOLD”, “Hold”, “HLD”, or anything else. We recommend that you label repdial keys you programmed by hand.
Note: This booklet references each feature key with its
capitalized full name. Thus, “press HOLD” means to press the feature key labeled as the Hold key in whatever notation.
Status Lights on Line Keys
The red status lights next to the line keys signals what is happening on those lines. Table 1 explains the various flash rates and the line status.

Open Listening and Hands­Free Conversations
Open listening means that people other than the caller himself can listen to the conversation. To initiate open listening, the caller presses the SPEAKER key. This will transmit the called party’s voice directly through the speaker (see Figure 1 on page 6). However, if the phone does not have a microphone, the caller must continue to use the handset to talk to the called party.
Hands-free means that the caller initiates open listening on a phone that has a microphone. I n th is case, th e caller can han g up after pressing the SPEAKER key. The called party will be heard through the speaker, and the caller will speak into the microphone (see F igure 1 on pag e 6) an d th us be heard b y the called party.
The Basic phone does not have a microphone and therefore supports op en listening only. It does not support hands-free conversations.
Learning About Your Phone 9
The Standard and the Advance phone have a microphone and therefore support open listening and hands-free conversations.
