8.21 Using The Auxiliary Jack

NOTE: Only the 8024S telephone has an auxiliary jack. On models 8312S and 8324, the optional headset plugs into the handset jack.

The auxiliary jack provides an interface for a headset, a tape recorder, an external ringer or an external pager. Any one of these auxiliary devices may be connected by you or by your system installer. You must program one of the programmable buttons to serve as an enable/disable button for each auxiliary device that is or will be connected to your telephone. Only the device displayed in the LCD will be enabled, and you can only enable one device at a time.

The headset mode allows you to operate your telephone with a headset instead of as a speakerphone. Lifting the handset will turn off the headset and activate the handset.

External power is required for the equipment (i.e. recorder, external ringer, or pager) used in the following modes:

NOTE: The recorder, external ringer, or pager requires external power.

The recorder mode allows you to send your voice and that of the distant party to a tape recording machine.

NOTE: A recording device requires a special peripheral cord for connection. See your system installer for details.

The ringer mode allows an external speaker to sound the ringing of your telephone.

The pager mode allows an external paging device to sound all voice announcements (all-call, zone paging, voice-announced intercom calls) sent to your telephone.

CAUTION

With the exception of a headset microphone, do not connect the audio output of any external device to the auxiliary jack. Also, do not connect the tip and ring leads of a telephone line to the auxiliary jack. Do not connect any devices to the auxiliary jack other than those mentioned above.
