Home area code: This is the area code for your telephone number. Users simply dial the seven digits of a telephone number to make a call within their own area code and 11 digits outside of their area code. If this applies to you, you should enter your own area code into the telephone as the home area code. After setting, if you receive a call from within your home area code, the screen will display the last seven digits of the telephone number.
You may, however, live in a region where for calls within your own area code, you must dial 10 digits (that is, the area code and telephone number). If this applies to you, enter 000 for the home area code and enter your area code as a local area code. After setting, if you receive a call from within your area code, the screen displays the 10 digits of the telephone number.
For details, see the Area codes section (page 42 of the installation guide).
Line group: A group of system telephones sharing some lines within a multi- telephone system.
Local area code: Most users dial 11 digits to make calls outside their home area codes. If this applies to you, you do not need to program any local area codes.
However, if you dial only 10 digits to make calls to some areas outside your home area code (without dialing 1), then set these local area codes on the telephone. Up to five local area codes can be set. For details, see the Area codes section (page 42 of the installation guide). After setting, if you receive a call from one of these local area codes, the screen displays the 10 digits of the telephone number.
Mailbox: A place to store answering system messages. The 1080 phone can have separate mailboxes for private messages, central messages, and system extension messages.
Navigation keys: These are the buttons used when programming your 1080 phone and for scrolling through feature options ([ENTER], [
], [
], [
], [
]).
Prime line: This is the line on the telephone you assign to be selected automatically when you lift the handset, press [
SPEAKER] or press [HEADSET] to answer or make a call.
