Welcome

Congratulations and thank you for using a Comdial telephone! Your digital station is supported by a communication system with hundreds of built-in, standard features.

This manual serves as a helpful guide for using these various functions.

The sections in this introductory chapter help you initially set up your station and become familiar with the controls and indicators. The remaining sections are titled as follows:

•Setting Up Your Station

•Understanding the Basic Functions

•Your Station’s Buttons

•Your Station’s Display Lights

•Supported Telephone Models

When your new station arrives, the system installer unpacks your station and connects the line to a system jack. The following sections describe a few initial adjustments that will allow you to quickly begin making and answering calls with some of the most basic features.
