AT&T 8520T How to Use the Switch Features, Special Instructions, Conventions Used in This Section

How to Use the Switch Features

Since your 8520T voice/data terminal is connected to a DEFINITY Communications System Generic 1 or Generic 3, you may be able to use some of the features listed in this section. Check with your system manager to see which of these features have been assigned to your voice/data terminal.

Special Instructions

Before you use the procedures for the first time, read the general directions below for using the many features of DEFINITY Generic 1 and Generic 3. Your system manager can supply the information required.

●To the right of each feature name is a box. Check with your system manager to

see which features you can use at your voice/data terminal. For each feature that you have, mark a [ ✔ ] in the blank box as a reminder.

●You can activate or cancel most of the features by dialing unique 2- or 3-digit codes for that feature. Ask your system manager for the feature codes for your system. Then, in the blanks provided within the procedures, write in the assigned feature code numbers.

●In most cases, before you begin a procedure, you must have the handset off-hook (removed from the cradle of the voice/data terminal).

●If you receive an intercept tone (high-pitched, alternating high and low tone) while attempting to operate any feature, you have taken too much time to complete a procedural step or have made a dialing error. Hang up, get dial tone, and begin again at Step 1.
