Operation Operation This chapter tells you how to use the optiPoint 300 basic tele- phone. Basic operation All of the optiPoint 300 basic functions are performed using the telephone keys. The unit can be used as a traditional telephone. Simply enter the number you want to dial on the keypad.
Operation Making a call You can make a telephone call with the handset picked up or in the cradle. If you make a call with the handset picked up, the number you want to call will be automatically dialled six seconds after you have finished entering it.
Operation Dialling with handset in cradle (on-hook dialling) Idle mode 12 – 03 – 00 12 – 34 Enter telephone number 0089722_ Enter IP address 093_324_5_ Pick up handset to start dialling The number you have entered will be checked. If you have entered an IP address incorrectly, the error tone will sound.
An incoming call will be indicated by the ringer tone and by the dis- play. If the optiPoint 300 basic is in idle mode, you will hear the ringer and the display will show the caller's identification. Up to 20 digits can be displayed, so if the caller's number is longer than this, only the last 20 places will be shown.
Operation Second incoming call With the call-waiting feature enabled , you can use the tele- phone to receive a second incoming call without disconnecting the first caller. When you pick up the new call, the previous caller will be put on background hold and the connection to the new caller becomes the active connection.
Operation Placing a second call (consultation) While speaking to a caller, you can temporarily put him or her on background hold while you consult a third individual by placing a new call. Place a second call Active connection 008972212345 R Request consultation Current call becomes connection no.
