INTRODUCTION

The digital telephone system is an expandable communications system with many attractive characteristics including the following:

Unitized base unit which includes all system features. The base unit is full featured and self-contained.

Expansion modules which increase station and line capacity. A 4-line,8-station expansion module is available. It can be added singly or in pairs to increase the station and line capacity of an existing base unit installation.

Secure off-hook voice announce (SOHVA) feature. The SOHVA feature allows a station user to talk to a busy station without being heard by the outside party at the busy station. The called user can easily send back a pre-programmed LCD message or talk to the caller without being heard by the outside party.

Programmable buttons. Many of the telephone buttons can be programmed to provide functions such as direct station selection (DSS), auto dial, system

feature access, line access, messaging and more. Programmed buttons helps station users eliminate manual dialing errors.

Service observing. Supervisors can help insure quality of service without interrupting calls by monitoring a trainee’s call without being heard by the distant party at the trainee’s station.

Handset volume control on all stations. Handset volume can be set to a comfortable listening level for each individual user of the telephone.

Call cost display. Built-in software records all outside call costs. Special programming allows an LCD speakerphone to display the accumulating cost of a call.

Dual intercom. A second intercom key can be provided so that station users can handle two intercom calls at once. One intercom call can be placed on hold while a second intercom call is serviced or both calls can be conferenced together.
