Teledex DIAMOND L2A, DIAMOND L2A-6 User Guide

CONNECTING THE DIAMOND+L2A-6/L2A

Included with the Diamond+L2A-6/L2A are (one each):

• Line cord • Coiled handset cord • User guide

• Handset • Clear plastic overlay

Contact your supplier or Teledex for information on ordering
custom designed and printed faceplates to enhance the look of your
Teledex telephone.

1) Located on the left side of the Diamond is a modular jack

labeled TO HANDSET. Insert one end of the coiled handset cord
into this jack. It is inserted properly when you hear a click.

2) Insert the other end of the coiled handset cord into the handset.

3) Turn the telephone so the back panel is facing you. Insert either
end of the line cord into the jack on the back of the telephone
labeled TO TEL.

4) Insert the other end of the line cord into a telephone wall jack.

5) Once your telephone is connected, place the paper faceplate over
the keys. The plastic overlay slips into place by hooking the tabs
on the overlay into the recessed slots located on both sides. The
overlay is easiest to insert when the left or right side tabs are
inserted first, and the middle part of the overlay is slightly bowed
to allow for insertion of the other tabs.

SELECTING LINE 1 AND LINE 2

Line 1 or Line 2 can be activated by pressing one of the latching line
keys labeled LINE 1 or LINE 2. Use the HOLD key to place callers on
hold while connecting to the other line.

RECEIVING A CALL

Select the active line, if not previously selected (as above.) Lift the
handset to answer incoming call. To end the call, hang up by
replacing the handset.

PLACING A CALL

1) Select the desired line.

2) Lift the handset – the LED for the activated line will turn green.

3) Listen for dial tone, dial the desired number, or press an autodial
key to automatically dial a number.

4) To end the call, hang up by replacing the handset.

USING THE HOLD KEY

Place a call on either line by pressing the HOLD key while a call is
active. The HOLD LED illuminates, indicating the call is on hold. You
may replace the handset without hanging up the call while on hold. To
resume the call, press the HOLD key again.

MESSAGE WAITING LIGHT

The raised red lens is a message waiting light. Many telephone systems
turn on the red message waiting light to alert the user that there is a
message waiting. Additionally, the message waiting light will act as a
visual ring indicator, flashing when the telephone is ringing.

USING THE DATA PORT

The data port is a modular jack, located on the right side of the
telephone, labeled DATA. You can connect a fax machine, computer
modem, answering machine and other similar devices to the telephone
line through this port. To use the data port, insert the line cord from
the device you wish to connect into the jack labeled DATA.

ADJUSTING THE RING VOLUME

The Diamond has ring volume settings for each line. To change the
ring volume, locate the adjustment control for the desired line on the
back of the telephone labeled RINGER LOW/HI. Slide the switch to
the desired volume. The ring volume can be changed at any time.

HANDSET VOLUME KEY

Pressing the HANDSET VOLUME key while a call is active increases
the handset volume by 40%. Pressing the key again returns the
handset volume to the normal level. Handset volume is reset to the
normal volume once a call is ended.

AUTO DIAL / ONE TOUCH FEATURE KEYS

The Diamond+L2A-6/L2A has up to eleven (11) programmable auto
dial keys. These keys can be programmed to automatically dial telephone
numbers, or to activate telephone system features, when connected to
a compatible PBX. To store auto dial information:

The telephone must be connected to a working telephone line.

1) Lift the handset.

2) Press the STORE key and release it (see diagram.)

3) Enter the telephone number (including PAUSE as required - see
diagram.) The dialing sequence can be up to 15 digits long.

4) Press the auto dial key where the number is to be stored.

5) Replace the handset.

REDIAL

To redial the last telephone number dialed:

1) Select the desired line.

2) Lift the handset.

3) Listen for dial tone, and press the REDIAL key. The telephone
will dial the last number dialed.

NOTE: Some PBX's require a pause after the first digit to access an outside
line. The redial function will automatically incorporate a pause if the dialed
number is 7 digits or more. The inserted pause will be of the same duration
as set in the pause timing (see below.)

PROGRAMMING FLASH

When programmed behind an auto dial key, Flash provides a timed
line interrupt typically used for accessing PBX/CO features such as
transfer and conference. The timing of the hookflash is programmable,
with the factory default timing set to 600 milliseconds. Some PBXs
may require you to change the hookflash timing from the default
600ms. To change hookflash timing:

1) Lift the handset.

2) Press the STORE key (see diagram.)

3) Press the FLASH programming key (see diagram.)

4) Select 1 - 9 on the dial pad. The number selected will be the
new Flash timing in hundreds of milliseconds; ie: "3" = 300 ms.

5) Press the STORE key.

PAUSE KEY

The PAUSE key can be used to provide a timed pause between dialed
digits within an auto dial key. The timing of the pause is programmable,
with the factory default set to zero (0) seconds. To change pause timing:

1) Lift the handset.

2) Press the STORE key (see diagram.)

3) Press the PAUSE key (see diagram.)

4) Select 1 - 9 on the dial pad. The number selected will be the
new Pause timing in seconds; ie: "3" = seconds.

5) Press the STORE key.

WALL MOUNTING

The Diamond+L2A-6/L2A telephone can be wall mounted. It is easi­est to do the conversion when the handset and line cords are not con­nected.

1) Located on the front of the telephone, above the speaker grill, is
the wall/desk mount clip. Remove this clip by pushing upward.

2) Rotate clip one half turn (180 degrees) so the side with the pro­truding edge is towards the top. This edge will hold the handset.

3) Slide the clip downward into the slot until it snaps into place.

4) Turn the telephone over onto a non-abrasive surface so the back
side is up, facing you.

5) Locate the mounting bracket, and firmly push back and pull up
to remove.

NOTE: There are four (4) retaining tabs.

6) Rotate the mounting bracket one half turn (180 degrees) so that
the mounting eyelet is facing in the same direction as the mounting
eyelet located on the bottom surface of the telephone.

7) Insert the top two retaining tabs of the mounting brackets into
the mounting bracket slots located near the middle of the telephone,
then firmly push down and insert the retaining tabs on the
opposite side.

8) Connect a short modular line cord into the jack on the back of
