Welcome
Congratulations and thank you for using a Comdial telephone! Your digital
speakerphone is supported by a communication system with hundreds of built-in,
standard features. This manual serves as a helpful guide for using these various
functions.
Thesections in this introductory chapterhelp you initially set up yourspeakerphone
and become familiar with the controls and indicators. The remaining sections are
titled as follows:

Setting Up Your Speakerphone
When your new speakerphone arrives, the
system installer unpacks your speakerphone
and connects the line to a system jack. The
following sections describe a few initial
adjustments that allow you to quickly begin
making and answering calls with some of the
most basic features.

Positioning YourSpeakerphone
You should adjustthe position of the speakerphoneon your desk or tableto suit your
individual needs and maximize the performance of the sound activated features.
When using your speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther from
you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips to consider include:
Forthe microphoneto bestdetect your voice,speak withinthree feet ofit and
·
face the speakerphone.
Backgroundnoise may preventthe sound-activated switches fromoperating
·
properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from
typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment.
Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not
·
place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come
between you and the microphone.
If you are using an Impact SCS model, your telephone has an adjustable pedestal to
allow you to select the most comfortable viewing angle. When you receive the
telephone, the pedestal is in its lowest
position—flush against the pedestal.

PRESS DOWN slightly on the telephone until you feel the
supporting arms snap into place.
Also remember, as with any piece of electronic equipment, your telephone may be
damaged by contact with liquids. So please try to place the telephone in an area that
is free from the danger of spills.
