If you have a 22-Button or
34-Button Display telephone, it
provides a two-line, 20-character
per line alphanumeric display.
The first line displays the date
and time (while idle) and feature
status messages. The second line displays the Interactive Soft
Key definitions.
If you have a 34-Button Super Display telephone, it provides an
eight-line, 20-character per line alphanumeric display. The first
line displays the date and time (while idle) and feature status mes-
sages, just like the 22-Button and 34-Button Display models. Lines
2-8 display the comprehensive Interactive Soft Key definitions.
Interactive Soft Keys
Interactive Soft Keys provide intuitive feature access. You’ll no
longer have to remember feature codes to access your telephone’s
most advanced features — because the function of the soft keys
changes as you process your calls. For example, while you’re on
an outside call, just press PARK to park your call in an orbit.
Basic Soft Key instruction is included in this guide. Refer to the
Soft Key Glossary (P/N 80000GLO**) for more on your
Interactive Soft Keys.

your attendant extension has these capabilities. Refer to the indi-
vidual feature for the specifics.

The attendant is the
system’s call processing
focal point.
Attendant Call Queuing
Attendant Call Queuing helps minimize congestion if your atten-
dant extension is the overflow destination for unanswered calls.
As an attendant, your extension is never busy to your co-workers.
Instead, an unlimited number of Intercom calls can queue (i.e., wait
in line) for you to become free. These calls wait on your Operator
Call Key, which is the last Programmable Function Key on your
telephone. This key is off when you’re available and winks on (red)
when co-workers are trying to get through.
To answer a call on your Operator Call Key:
Your Operator Call Key winks on (red) when a
call is waiting.

With Call Waiting, a co-worker
can call you while you’re busy
and wait in line (Camp-On) for
you to become free. You’ll hear
two beeps indicating that your
co-worker is waiting. The call goes through when your extension
becomes free.
Note: If you have more than one caller waiting, they queue (i.e.,
wait in line for you) on a first-in/first-out basis. You hear
Camp-On beeps only for the first waiting call.

ing call.
CAMP
10
Set up a multiple-party
telephone meeting
without leaving the office.
Call Waiting / Camp-On
Know when you have
calls waiting, or wait in
line for a busy co-worker.
When you call a busy co-worker,
you can leave a Callback request
for a return call. There is no need
to keep calling your co-worker
back, hoping to find them idle.
Here’s how Callback works:
G
You call a busy co-worker and leave a Callback.
G
When your co-worker becomes free, your phone automatically
starts ringing.
G
Once you lift the handset to answer the ring, your co-worker
then rings.
G
As soon as your co-worker answers, you’ll have an Intercom
call between you and your co-worker.
To leave a Callback at a busy co-worker:
1.
Call your busy co-worker.
2.
Dial
or press
.
3.
Hang up.
If you dial 2 and stay on the line, you will
Camp-On to your busy co-worker.
4.
When your busy co-worker becomes free, your phone
will automatically ring.
5.
Lift the handset to answer.
6.
Speak to your co-worker when the calls goes through.

11
Callback
You don’t have to
repeatedly call a busy
co-worker back, hoping to
find them idle.
Caller ID allows your telephone
display to show the incoming
caller’s telephone number and
optional name. Caller ID supports
your telephone company’s Called
Number Identification (CNI) and
Called Number Delivery (CND) service, when available.
Single and Multiple Message Format
There are two types of Caller ID message formats available: Single
Data Message Format (SDMF) and Multiple Data Message Format
(MDMF). If your telephone company supports Single Message Data
Format, you’ll see only your caller’s number. With Multiple Data
Message Format, you’ll see both your caller’s number and name.
Caller ID and NVM-Series Voice Mail
Caller ID works with your NVM-2000 and VANGARD Mail
Voice Mail system to provide productivity enhancements like
Make Call with Caller ID. With Make Call, you can return a call
to someone who left you a message without knowing your caller’s
phone number. Your Communications Manager can tell you if you
have this capability.
Second Call Caller ID
While you are busy on a call, your telephone display can show
you the Caller ID information for a waiting call. If you receive
Camp On tones or Off-Hook Ringing for a call, you can also
receive the Second Call Caller ID. Check with your
Communications manager to see if you have this feature.
Third Party Caller ID Check
Third Party Caller ID Check allows you to see the Caller ID infor-
mation for a co-worker’s call. Check with your Communications
Manager for more about Third Party Caller ID Check.

Outside calls can ring your exten-
sion directly, without having to be
transferred by your company’s
operator or receptionist.
To answer an outside call:
Outside calls normally flash red on your line/loop
keys. If a line/loop key is flashing green, the call is a
Direct Inward Line (DIL) to your phone.
The call may also ring your phone.

call processing, your console will
be a welcome convenience.
There are two types of DSS Consoles:
the 24-Button and the 110-Button. Each
console has the same capability, limited
by the number of available keys.
Note: You can only have a DSS Console if you have a 34-Button

to extensions 300-379. Keys 97-110 are reserved for special func-
tions (like Page zones and Park orbits). With the 24-Button DSS
Console, keys 1-24 are Hotline keys to extensions 300-323. See

The Door Box is a self-contained
Intercom unit you can use to mon-
itor an entrance door. A visitor at
your door can press the Door Box
call button (like a door bell). The
Door Box then sends chimes to all telephones programmed to
receive chimes. If the Door Box chimes ring your phone, you can
talk to the visitor at the door just by lifting the handset.
The Door Box is convenient to have at a delivery entrance, for
example. You don’t need to have a co-worker monitor the deliv-
ery entrance; just answer the Door Box chimes instead.
If your telephone receives Door Box chimes, you may also be
able to remotely open and close the entrance door. Ask your
Communications Manager if you have this set up. If you do, after
answering the Door Box chimes you just press your FLASH key
or a soft key to open the door.
To place a call to the Door Box:
1.
Press
.
2.
Dial the Door Box extension number.
To answer the Door Box chimes (i.e., to answer a call from
the Door Box):

If you are an attendant, you’ll need a Call
Coverage key for the Door Box Ring Group to be
able to answer Door Box calls. Check with your
Communications Manager.

Your phone may be in a group
with co-workers that share
responsibility for answering calls.
Each call into the group cycles
through the group until you or one
of your co-workers picks it up.
There are three types of hunting:
G
Circular Hunting
With this type of hunting, a call unanswered at one member’s
extension rings the next extension in the list. If still unan-
swered, the call will continue to cycle through the group until
all members are rung.
G
Terminal Hunting
In Terminal Hunting, a call unanswered by one member rings
the next extension in the list. Unlike Circular Hunting, how-
ever, the call will not cycle back to the top of the list. It rings
from the point at which it entered the list — and stops at the
last extension.
G
Uniform Call Distribution (UCD) Hunting
With UCD, the system routes calls according to the frequency
of use of the member extensions. The first extension rung is
the member that has been idle the longest. The last extension
rung is the extension that has been idle the shortest. If you are
part of a Call Center, you may be in a UCD hunting group.
To temporarily install or remove your extension from your
UCD Group:
1.
Press
and dial

Forced Trunk Disconnect allows
you to disconnect (release) anoth-
er extension’s active outside call.
This is a powerful feature that
lets you access a busy line in an emergency — when no other
outside lines are available. Normally, Forced Trunk Disconnect is
reserved only for attendants and supervisors.
!! CAUTION !!
Forced Trunk Disconnect abruptly terminates the active call on
the outside line. Only use this feature in an emergency — when
no other outside lines are available.

Headset Compatibility
Hold lets you put a call in a tem-
porary waiting state. The caller on
Hold hears silence or Music on
Hold, not the conversation in your
work area. While your call waits
on Hold, you can process other calls and use other features. Calls
that you leave on Hold too long will recall to you if you forget to
pick them up.
There are four types of Hold:
G
System (Regular) Hold
With System Hold, an outside call you place on Hold flashes
the line key at your co-workers’ phones. Any co-worker with
a flashing line key for the call can pick it up.
G
Exclusive Hold
When you place a call on Exclusive Hold, only you can pick
up the call from Hold. The line flashes on your phone but
shows busy on your co-workers’ phones. Exclusive Hold is
important if you don’t want a co-worker picking up your
calls on Hold.
G
Automatic Hold
Automatic Hold allows you to be on an outside call, activate
a feature and automatically place the call on Hold. You don’t
have to press the Hold key. The system places your call on
Hold when you press CONF, ICM, a Call Coverage key or a
Hotline key.
G
Intercom Hold
You can also place an Intercom call on Hold. Your Intercom
call on Hold does not indicate on any other telephone.

While you are busy on a call,
Off-Hook Signaling lets you know
when another caller is tying to get
through. Off-Hook Signaling
helps your important callers get through, without waiting in line
for you to become free. After you hear an Off-Hook Signal, you
can use another system feature to process your current call (such
as Hold or Park). You can then answer the waiting call.
You can receive Off-Hook Signals while you are busy on the
handset. There are two types of Off-Hook Signaling:
G
Off-Hook Ringing
Off-Hook Ringing is muted ringing from your phone’s speaker.
Off-Hook Ringing occurs only for waiting outside calls.
G

Paging lets you broadcast
announcements to other keyset
users and to external Paging
speakers. Paging allows you to
locate a co-worker or make an announcement without calling each
extension individually. There are two types of Paging: Internal
Paging and External Paging.
Internal Paging
Internal Paging allows you to broadcast announcements into 7
internal Paging Zones and All Call (all zones). When you make a
zone page, your announcement simultaneously broadcasts to all
extensions in the specified zone. When you make an All Call
page, your announcement simultaneously broadcasts to extensions
in all zones. (Your system may limit the length of your Paging
broadcasts. Check with your Communications Manager.)
External Paging
When you page into Internal All Call Page or Internal Zone Page
1, the system simultaneously broadcasts the announcement into
the External Paging Zone. Typically, your system’s External
Paging Zone connects to speakers in your ceiling.

Park places an outside call in a
waiting state (called a Park Orbit)
so a co-worker can pick it up.
There are two types of Park:
System and Personal. Use System
Park when you want to have your
call wait in one of 10 system
orbits (60-69). Personal Park allows you to park a call at an
extension so a co-worker can pick it up. After parking a call, you
can Page for the co-worker and hang up. Your co-worker then
dials a code to pick up their call.
If a call you Park is not retrieved, it will recall to you. Your
Communications Manager can tell you what the recall time is for
System Park orbits 60-67. The recall time for orbits 68 and 69 is

If you are a salesperson, for example, Reverse Voice Over can help
you while placing a call to an important client. You can talk to the
client and give special instructions to an assistant — all without
interrupting your initial client call.
You can have Reverse Voice Over keys for more than one
co-worker. Ask your Communications Manager if you have any
of these keys.
While your telephone is idle, your Reverse Voice Over key func-
tions the same as a Hotline key. (You cannot, however, use it to

Save Number Dialed permits you
to save your last outside number
and easily redial it later on. For
example, you can recall a busy or

up to 20 digits. The system remembers the number regardless of
whether the call was answered, unanswered or busy.
Unless your phone has a display, you must have a uniquely pro-

You can select a preprogrammed
Selectable Display Message for
your extension. Your display tele-
phone callers see the selected
message when they call your
extension. Selectable Display
Messaging provides you with per-
sonalized text messaging. For example, you can select the mes-
sage, “GONE FOR THE DAY.” Any co-worker calling from a dis-
play telephone sees the message. Other than displaying your mes-
sage, the call goes through normally.
There are 16 Selectable Display Messages (01-16), and each mes-
sage can be up to 20 characters long. When your system is first
installed, you have the following standard messages (although they
may have been changed during installation):

Speed Dial gives you quick access
to frequently called numbers.
Instead of dialing a long tele-
phone number to reach a client or customer, use Speed Dial.
Speed Dial also lets you store Intercom digits for quick access to
commonly used features.
There are two types of Speed Dial: System and Personal. Speed
Dial numbers can be up to 16 digits long, using 0-9, # and *.
Every Speed Dial can have a programmed name up to 16 charac-
ters long. The name shows in your telephone’s display as the
Speed Dial number dials out.
Speed Dial can store outside numbers and Intercom digits. This
capability to store Intercom digits provides you with “one-touch”
access to features you use most often. For example, you can have
a Personal Speed Dial bin that simplifies forwarding calls to
Voice Mail or a co-worker.
Pressing
or
at your 34-Button Super
Display telephone will show the first 10 characters of the name
for the associated Personal Speed Dial bin. If you don’t have
names programmed, your phone will show the first 10 digits of
the stored number instead.
System Speed Dial
System Speed Dial gives you and your co-workers access to the
same set of stored numbers. Your system can have up to 1000
System Speed Dial numbers, depending on how it was set up dur-
ing installation. Check with your Communications Manager for
more about your System Speed Dial numbers.

Line Queuing permits you to
queue (wait in line) on hook for a
busy line or line group to become
free. The system will connect you
as soon as the line is available.
You do not have to manually retry
the line later.
After queuing for a line, you just
hang up to convert your Line
Queue into a Line Callback. When
the line becomes free, the system automatically recalls your phone.
As soon as you lift the handset, you connect to the outside line.
You can leave a Line Callback request for many outside lines.
The system processes your requests as the lines become free. In
addition, you and your co-workers can leave a Callback request
for the same line. The system processes these requests on a
first-in/first-out (FIFO) basis.
If you leave a Line Callback request and fail to answer when
Callback rings your phone, the system cancels the Callback.
