About this manual

This manual contains all that you need to know to operate your PCS 542 connected to a SpliceCom

case please refer to your System Administrator for further assistance.

How your PCS 542 will operate

Your User Account
You are a "User" of the SpliceCom maximiser telephone system and as such you have a User
account on the system. Your User name will be used to identify you as you make, receive and
transfer calls. Each of your colleagues will also have a User account and will be identified in the
same way, by their User name. A list of the Users of your telephone system can be viewed via the
Directory as explained in the Contacts Directory section from page 26.
!
As a User on the system you will be given an extension number, eg 2021, and possibly a DDI
number, eg 01632 563862. So that when a colleague rings your extension number or an external
contact rings your DDI number these will be routed to your User account.
!
Your User account will store all of your User settings (as described in the User Settings section from
page 33) so that when you login to another handset (as described in the Hot Desking/Log In section
from page 50) these settings will be available to you and your calls will be routed to whichever
phone you are logged on to.
!
Logging
On
In most implementations the PCS 542 will be your permanent desktop phone and as such it will have
been automatically allocated to you by your System Administrator therefore there will be no need for
you to log in or log out. However, if you are a Hot Desk User, in other words a User who has been
given the ability to log in to any phone on the system because, for example, you need to move
around the building or you are rarely in the office and do not need a permanent telephone please
refer to the Hot Desking/Log In section from page 50 for further information.
!
Hands free Operation
Hands free operation of the PCS 542 enables you to have a telephone conversation via the phone's
speakers. This is done by pressing the Speaker button rather than lifting the handset. You can
switch between hands free and handset during a call as described in the Switch to Hands Free
section from page 19.
!
If you connect a headset to the headset port on the PCS 542 your hands free conversation will be via
the headset and not through the phone's speaker. You can configure your phone so that the ringing
tone will only be heard via your headset, please refer to the Headset Ringing section from page 33
for further details.
!
Your phone can be configured so that your calls can only be handled hands free, when using a
headset in most cases, and the handset will become inoperable.
configured for you. Please refer to your System Administrator for further details.
