What Kind of Telephone Can Be Used?

You can use the following types of telephone with this PBX:

Panasonic IP Proprietary Telephone (IP-PT) (e.g., KX-NT346 or KX-NT366)

SIP Extension (e.g., KX-HGT100)

Panasonic Proprietary Telephone (PT) (e.g., KX-T7636 or KX-DT346)

Panasonic Portable Station (PS) (e.g., KX-TCA255 or KX-TD7690)

Single Line Telephone (SLT)

(e.g., rotary pulse telephone)

Which features are available depend on the type of telephone being used. If you are using a Panasonic proprietary telephone with a special feature button such as REDIAL or a display (Display PT) or both, you can

follow the operation with the button or display messages for easy programming. If you use a large display telephone (e.g., KX-NT346 or KX-T7636), you can follow the displayed messages to use the features. If your telephone does not have feature buttons and/or a display, you may operate the PBX by entering a feature number instead. Follow the operation for your type of telephone. If you use a Console, you can use the buttons on the Console as the buttons on the connected proprietary telephone.

If you use a Panasonic proprietary telephone which does

not have feature buttons, you

may change one of the unused

flexible buttons to a feature

button. Refer to

"3.1.3 Customising the Buttons".

Registration for your Portable Station (PS)/SIP Extension

Your PS/SIP Extension must be registered with the PBX and assigned an extension number before initial use, through system programming. To confirm the extension number of your PS, refer to "Your extension information" in "3.1.2 Settings on the Programming Mode". For SIP Extension users, follow the instructions for your SIP Extension.

Feature Numbers

To use certain features, you need to enter specified feature numbers (and an additional parameter, if required). There are two types of feature numbers as follows:

Flexible feature number

Fixed feature number

Fixed feature numbers cannot be changed. However, you can change the flexible numbers to other numbers for easier use. In this manual, the default numbers (factory installed) are used for operations.

A flexible number is shown as (half-shaded key). Use the new programmed number if you have changed the feature number. Write the new number in "4.2.1 Feature Number Table" (Appendix).
