What Kind of Telephone Can Be Used?

You can use a single line device such as a single line telephone (SLT), fax machine, modem, or wireless telephone, or a Panasonic proprietary telephone (PT) such as the KX-T7730. Some features may not be available, depending on the telephone you are using. 

If you are using a Panasonic PT with special feature buttons, or a display (Display PT), or both, follow the procedures that use feature buttons or the display, for easy operation. 

If you are using an SLT, follow the procedures that use specified numbers to access features (feature numbers). 

If you use a Direct Station Selection (DSS) Console, you can also use the buttons on the DSS Console to perform operations, instead of the buttons on the connected PT.

• If you use a Panasonic PT that 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".
