Introducing The LCD Speakerphone

1.2Using Your Speakerphone

When using your speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther away from you than when you use a handset. Both the signal from the loudspeaker and the signal to the microphone must be strengthened. When microphones and loudspeakers are close together (such as in a speakerphone), additional amplification typically generates a ringing sound (public address systems do this if the volume is too high or the microphone is too close to a loudspeaker).

NOTE: The 8324F-** speakerphone can function in the full-duplex or half-duplex mode. Both sets of guidelines (section 1.2.1 and section 1.2.2) are applicable to the 8324F-**.

The 8012S-**, 8024S-**, 8324S-**, and 8312S-** speakerphones only function in the half-duplex mode—only section 1.2.2, Speakerphone User Guidelines, apply to these telephones.

1.2.1 Using A Full-Duplex Speakerphone

The Impact SCS 8324F-** speakerphone uses the latest full-duplex speakerphone technology. (Full-duplex technology enables both parties on a speakerphone call to speak simultaneously—half-duplex speakerphones allow only one person to speak at a time.) The 8324F-** will operate in either full-duplex or half-duplex mode depending on the current line conditions. For example, satellite calls or calls with a delay involved may prevent the telephone from operating in full-duplex mode.

At the beginning of each call the telephone must perform a “speech training” test. To achieve optimum performance from the full-duplex speakerphone, Comdial recommends that each user in turn speak about 10 consecutive words to allow the telephone to “train” itself. Note that during the “speech training” test, the speakerphone is operating in half-duplex mode.

Depending on the telephone line conditions and the type of speakerphone at the other end, it may not be possible for the 8324F-** to operate in full-duplex mode. If the speakerphone at the other end is a half-duplex speakerphone and both parties are in speakerphone mode, the half-duplex speakerphone is the controlling factor, preventing the 8324F-** from operating in full-duplex mode.
