CHANGING THE FLASH DURATION

The default FLASH is set to .6 seconds. This is suitable for most US telephone companies. Older PBX’s and international telephone companies might require different timing. If PBX or flash features are not working properly, contact the telephone company or PBX manufacturer to obtain the correct FLASH TIME.

FLASH TIME can be set from .1 seconds to 1.2 seconds in .1 second increments.

The 420 can be programmed with six area codes: 1 “HOME” and 5 “LOCAL”. The 420 will use these area codes to determine how to dial Caller ID numbers. LOCAL and HOME area codes will not be dialed when calling a number stored in a Caller ID record.

When numbers are transferred from the Caller ID database to the DIRECTORY (see TRANSFERING A CALLER ID RECORD TO THE DIRECTORY on page 33) local and home area codes will NOT be transferred to allow correct dialing.

If you must dial your home area code when dialing locally, program “000” as your home area code.
