To use a system feature, press [ # ] (in place of [ Feature ] used on system phones) followed by its two-digit code when you hear intercom dial tone. For features that use [ Intercom ] on system phones, dial only the two-digit code when you hear intercom dial tone. (Instructions for using these features on standard phones are included in Chapter 5, “Feature Reference.”)

To use a Speed Dial number, press [ # ] followed by its two- or three-digit code when you hear intercom dial tone. (For details, see “Personal Speed Dial Numbers” and “System Speed Dial Numbers” in Chapter 5.)

If Call Waiting (#316) is assigned to an extension with a standard phone connected, the user hears a call waiting tone (two beeps) when a second call comes in to the extension. The call waiting tone is not repeated.

Use the switchhook on a standard phone to place calls on hold, park a call, transfer a call, answer a call waiting call, or set up a conference call. (For details, see “Using the Switchhook” on the next page, or “Hold,” “Transferring Calls,” “Answering Calls,” and “Conference Calls” in Chapter 5.)

If the standard phone has a message waiting light, use it to notify users of messages. (For details, see “Message Light On” and “Message Light Off” in Chapter 5. For a list of supported phones, see “Standard Telephones” in Chapter 1.) Alternatively, if you have a voice messaging system, the light is used to indicate that a message has been left in the mailbox. On a standard phone, the message light flashes when the phone is idle to indicate that the extension has received a message.

Ringing Patterns

Standard phones have these ringing patterns:

An outside call will ring . . . ring . . . ring.

An intercom call will ring-ring . . . ring-ring . . . ring-ring.

A transferred call, or an unanswered transferred or parked call that is ringing back at your extension, will ring-ring-ring . . .ring-ring-ring . . .

ring-ring-ring.

N O T E :

If you use the system with PBX or Centrex lines, the PBX/Centrex distinctive ringing patterns are not passed to phones. Telephones use the ringing patterns described here instead.
