Using Auxiliary Equipment

heard at that port. A doorphone is especially useful for providing access to offices or departments after hours. For example, you can install a doorphone outside your building entrance to allow visitors to ring telephones inside the building when the receptionist is not there and the front door is locked.

The system supports up to two Lucent Technologies PARTNER Doorphones or any number of Lucent Technologies Universal Doorphones. Universal Doorphones offer a door unlock feature and can be installed in addition to PARTNER Doorphones.

PARTNER PassageWay®Solution allows you to combine your Personal Computer (PC) running Microsoft® WindowsTM 3.1 or later, Microsoft Windows for Workgroups Version 3.11 or later, or Windows 95 with your phone. You can then use your PC for tasks such as dialing out from an electronic phone list and logging phone calls.

Music-on-hold systems allow you to play recorded music or messages to callers while they are on hold, by connecting the audio source to the processor module. The system supports the Lucent Technologies Magic-On-Hold system and most models from other manufacturers. (The performance of music over telephone lines is a public performance under United States Copyright law. Accordingly, in order for the performance of that music to be lawful, it must be licensed annually to the user by the copyright owners or their representatives. The Magic-On-Hold system includes the required license for the first year. This license must be renewed annually.)

Remote Administration Units (RAUs) allow you to perform System and Centralized Telephone Programming from a remote location.

Extra alerts help make users aware of incoming calls. For example, you can use an audible alert (chime, horn, or bell) to replace a phone ring in a noisy area, such as a factory. Similarly, you can use a visual alert (strobe or light) to replace a phone ring in a quiet area, such as a library. Lucent Technologies offers several compatible alerts.

NOTE:

With the exception of headphones, auxiliary equipment works only on Tip Ring ports (the bottom two ports of the PARTNER Endeavor 362 processor or 362EC expansion module). Because headphones do not require a ring, they can be plugged into any port.

Speakerphones provide hands-free two-way operation of a phone without lifting the handset. Combining a speakerphone with a system phone or a standard phone in a conference room or office is an inexpensive way for several people at a meeting to conference in other parties. (In conference rooms, a separate speakerphone—such as the SoundStation from Lucent Technologies—is recommended, since the built-in speaker on a system phone is designed for individual use.)
