BASIC OPERATIONS

MAKING CALLS

Extend the Antenna whenever you remove the Handset from the Base Unit cradle

There are two ways to make a call:

Press LINE 1/FLASH or LINE 2/ FLASH and listen for dial tone. The LCD will display HANDSET ON 1 (or 2). Dial the phone number.

OR

With the Handset OFF, dial the phone number. Then, press the desired LINE key. After a 2 second delay to access dial tone, the phone number you entered will automatically be dialed.

NOTE: If you make a mistake while entering digits (with the Handset OFF), press and hold the INT.COM/DELETE key. The LCD will begin to delete digits, one by one, until you release the key.

If you want to delete ALL digits at once, press and hold the CONF/CLEAR key. All previously entered digits will be deleted, and the LCD will be blank.

To end your call, press OFF, or return the Handset to the Base Unit cradle.

To put a call on HOLD from the Handset:

Press the HOLD/PAUSE key to place a call on HOLD.

Press the appropriate LINE key to cancel HOLD and return to the conversation.

If you are on LINE 1 and press LINE 2, LINE 1 will automatically go into HOLD mode. Press OFF to end your call with LINE 2, then press LINE 1 to return to your party on LINE 1. Otherwise, with LINE 1 on HOLD and LINE 2 active, press CONF/ CLEAR to enter CONFERENCE mode.

If you are on LINE 2 and press LINE 1, LINE 2 will automatically go into HOLD mode. Press OFF to end your call with LINE 1, then press LINE 2 to return to your party on LINE 2. Otherwise, with LINE 2 on HOLD and LINE 1 active, press C O N F / C L E A R to enter CONFERENCE mode.

To end a 2-Line CONFERENCE, press OFF.

NOTE: You cannot end a call when it is on HOLD. First, press the appropriate LINE key, then press OFF (or return the Handset to the Base Unit cradle).

REDIAL

Press the appropriate LINE key and listen for dial tone. Then press REDIAL. The most recent phone number you called will automatically be redialed.

Similar to Making Calls above, you can also press REDIAL with the Handset OFF, and then press the desired LINE key. The VT 2960 will wait 2 seconds for a dial tone, and then REDIAL the last number you called.
