These operating instructions describe the optiPoint 420 advance telephone on your
HiPath 2000 and HiPath 3000 / 5000.
They describe all functions you can use from your telephone. You may find that some functions you wish to use are not available on your telephone. This may be due to one of the
following reasons:
•The function has not been configured for your telephone - address any questions to
your service personnel.
•Your communications platform does not support this function - contact your service
personnel to upgrade your system.
Important Notes
Do not operate the telephone in environments where there is a danger of
explosions.
Use only original Siemens accessories. Using other accessories may cause
a hazard and will invalidate the warranty and the CE mark.
Never open the telephone or a key module. If you encounter any problems,
contact your service personnel.
CE (customer equipment) does not continue to support emergency dialing after loss of
mains power, if battery back up and power fail switchover to emergency analogue phones
is not available.
Never allow the telephone to come into contact with staining or aggressive liquids such as
coffee, tea, juice, or soft drinks. For information on telephone maintenance ! Page 125.

Basic operating instructions
Functions You CanUse
Self Labelling Key Function
Thanks to the Self Labelling Key function, you do not
need to label your telephone's programmable function
keys manually. Depending on how they are programmed, your HiPath automatically assigns a standard
label to your function keys.
However, if you wish, you can also define your own text
labels for the function keys rather than using the standard labels ! Page 120.
Basic and Enhanced Functions
You can use all basic and enhanced communications
platform functions that appear interactively on the
screen, in the Program/Service menu, and when you
press function keys.
Additional Team and Executive/Secretary
Functions
! Page 103f.
To help working and project groups work together more
efficiently, the service personnel can configure a variety
of team functions, depending on your preferences
when working in the team. You can use these team
functions in addition to the basic and enhanced functions.
In addition to call pickup, hunting groups (group call),
and call distribution groups, you can also set up teams
with multiple lines per telephone.
You can tell if a telephone has trunk keys if your station
number and the numbers of your colleagues are programmed on trunk keys. You can access all lines and
can also conduct different calls simultaneously on multiple lines.
Another team function category includes the executive/
secretary
functions, which are configured by the service personnel. You can use executive and secretary functions in
addition to the basic and enhanced functions as well as
other team functions.
13
Page 14
Basic operating instructions
Step by Step
An executive/secretary telephone has DSS keys for the
executive or secretary, trunk keys for the executive and
secretary, as well as ring transfer keys.
Using the Telephone Efficiently
•You probably have certain colleagues or external parties with whom you talk on the phone especially frequently. To dial these numbers faster and more conveniently, you can save them on keys
(Saving station numbers for repertory dialing on
keys ! Page 29).
•All too often you reach a busy line when dialing a
number. Amid the confusion of your working day,
it’s easy to forget to try the number again later on.
To avoid this, make it a habit to use the "Callback"
! Page 27 function.
Safety Precautions for IP Telephony
Different methods can be implemented to protect an IP
environment from external attacks (denial of service attacks, viruses, etc.) and call monitoring.
There are no special procedures for operating this device. Please contact your service personnel to find out
more about IP telephony security.

AnsweringCalls
Special default ring signaling is set for your telephone:
•When you receive an internal call, your telephone
rings once every four seconds (single-tone sequence).
•When you receive an external call, your telephone
rings twice in rapid succession every four seconds
(dual-tone sequence).
•When you receive a call from the entrance telephone,
your telephone rings three times in rapid succession
every four seconds (triple-tone sequence).
•If a call is waiting, you hear a short tone (beep) every
six seconds.
Your service personnel can adjust the ring cadence for external and internal calls for you. In
other words, different ring cadences can be set
for different internal callers.
The number or the name of the caller appears on the

Saving Repertory Dial i ngNumbers on
a Key
You can save frequently-dialed station numbers on programmable keys that are unassigned by default.
External and internal station numbers, as well as functions/procedures (comprising several operating steps)
can be stored on these keys ! Page 65.
In addition, the keys can be programmed on two separate levels if you have configured a key as the "switching" key (Shift key ! Page 65).
Depending on the key assignment and programming of
your HiPath system ("Extended Key Functionality"; refer
to relevant service personnel), dual-level key assignment permits several assignment combinations.
Corresponding displays guide you through this process
! Page 126.
If you save internal station numbers, you can choose
whether to save an LED display for the key (=Save with
LED) or not (=Save without LED).
