Coverage Test

Follow this basic testing procedure to verify that coverage is in effect:

1.Have someone call the covered telephone.

2.Count the number of rings that occur at the covered telephone before the covering telephone starts ringing. This should be the same as the programmed number of rings.

3.Pickup the handset at the covering telephone and verify that you have good two-way communication.

4.Hang up at the covering telephone.

5.Check both individual and group coverage.

Testing the Operator Console

Testing the operator console, whether it is analog or digital, is the same as testing an MLX telephone, except for testing the console’s unique feature buttons. Follow these steps to test the operator console:

1 . Pick up the handset of the telephone being tested and push ICOM (Key or Behind Switch mode) or SA (Hybrid/PBX mode). After receiving the intercom dial tone, dial 00 to activate the test” mode.

You should hear a steady test tone over the handset and a ring burst over the speaker. The telephone’s red and green LEDs should be on.

2 . To test the line buttons, press any line button with two LEDs.

The diagnostic tone should stop, and the LEDs for that button should turn off.

3 . Press the same line button repeatedly to toggle the green and red LEDs on and off.
