1. GETTING STARTED Welcome Congratulations and thank you for using a Comdial telephone! Your Internet Protocol (IP) large screen display speakerphone is supported by a communication system with hundreds of built-in, standard fea- tures. This manual serves as a helpful guide for using these various functions.
Getting Started 1.1 Setting Up Your Speakerphone When your new speakerphone arrives, you or the system installer must unpack it and make the necessary connections.

Next to a fixed feature or programmable feature button: • Steady red = the feature is on. • Steady off = the feature is off. Note: You can find the programmable buttons that the installer designates feature buttons through user programming in the same location as the DSS/BLF programmable buttons.
Getting Started 1.11 Understanding The Large Screen Display Your speakerphone has a large screen display consisting of six lines of 24 possible character positions per line. This provides you with much more system information than can be presented on two-line dis- plays.
2. ANSWERING CALLS 2.1 Answering Outside Calls When an outside call rings at your station, the LCD screen displays the system line number of the incoming call (e.g., L123) and any caller ID information that your ringing line is programmed to receive. In addition to simply lifting the handset, your other options for answering the call are displayed above the interactive buttons.
Answering Calls • When you hear outside ringing (two long bursts) and observe a red flashing light, 1. Press the flashing line button or Select Answer. 2. Speak toward telephone or lift the handset if privacy is desired. 3. Select Do Not Disturb if you do not wish to answer the call at this time.
4. Select Group Listen to activate the speaker while using the handset or headset, so a group can listen to the conversation but not interact with the calling party. 5. Select Record to record the call (if VMAIL is installed). 2.2 Answering Intercom Calls An intercom call is one that is made from one system telephone to another.
Answering Calls • When you hear intercom ringing (two short bursts), 1. Press INTERCOM or select Answer. 2. Speak toward the telephone or lift the handset if privacy is desired. 3. Select Do Not Disturb if you do not wish to answer the call at this time.
Page 29
• To place a call on hold, —Press HOLD (station button) or select Hold (interactive button). • To retrieve a held call, 1. Press the line button of the held call (with winking green light), or INTERCOM for intercom call held or press TAP. 2.
Answering Calls • To retrieve exclusive hold, 1. Press the line button of held call (with winking green light), or press TAP. 2. Speak toward the telephone or lift the handset if privacy is desired. 2.4.1 HANDLING HOLD RECALLS After a call has been on hold for the period of time (set by the installer of your system), the system causes four quick hold recall tone bursts to sound at your telephone, the flash rate of the line button becomes faster and the light becomes orange.
2.4.2 USING DIRECTED CALL HOLD The installer can add a directed station hold feature to your telephone. With this feature, you can place a call on hold at another station. You can also pick up the held call that has been waiting the longest length of time at another telephone.
Answering Calls 2.4.3 SELECTING SPECIFIC HELD CALLS Often, you will have more than one call on hold at your station. You know you can retrieve the last call placed on hold simply by pressing TAP; however, if you do not have line appearance for a line on which another call is holding, the system provides a way for you to access that call before servicing the last call you placed on hold.
2.5 Call Pickup The Impact system offers three distinct methods to answer incoming calls that are ringing at other stations. 2.5.1 GROUP CALL PICKUP The installer often arranges several telephones together in a user group. If your telephone is so arranged, you can answer calls that are ringing at other stations within your particular group.
Answering Calls 2.5.3 PICKUP FOR MONITORED STATIONS Your telephone may have the personal intercom number of another telephone appearing at a programmable button location. You can use the light associated with this button to monitor the status of that tele- phone, and you can press the button to make a call to that telephone if you wish.
2.5.4 SERVICING A MONITORED STATION • To call an idle monitored station or to answer one that is ringing, 1. Note the BLF light condition. 2. Press the assigned DSS/BLF button. 3. Speak toward the telephone, or lift the handset if privacy is desired.
Answering Calls 2.6 Receiving SOHVA Announcements 2.6.1 HANDLING AN INCOMING SOHVA Subdued Off-Hook Voice Annoucements (SOHVA), allows an intercom caller to break into your call by making an announcement through your handset receiver. The distant party that you are currently talking to cannot hear the announcement made by the SOHVA caller.
Page 37
• To respond to a SOHVA non verbally through Response Messaging, 1. Select Message. 2. Select one of the messages appearing in your LCD by select- ing the corresponding interactive button. (Message appears in the display of the telephone making the SOHVA). 3.
Your Station 2.7 Caller ID (Automatic Number Identification) When installed by system programming, the Caller ID feature allows you to view incoming call numbers before you answer them. Incoming call numbers flash in the left half of the LCD. If the name of the calling party is available it will display in the second half on the right side of the LCD.
Page 40
Answering Calls The system also stores numbers that ring on your line but receive no answer. The system indicates that it has stored ring-no answer numbers by causing the programmed Caller-ID (CID) light on your telephone to flash. Pressing the CID button allows you to view the stored numbers one at a time.
3. MAKING CALLS 3.1 Making Outside Calls You can manually dial a number over any telephone line you select. Or, if the installer assigned a prime line or the idle line preference feature to your LCD speakerphone, the system automatically selects a line for use when you lift the handset or press the speaker button.

Making Calls If your station has an assigned prime line, you will not have to select a line before dialing outside your system. • To dial an outside number using your prime line, 1. Press SPEAKER or lift the handset if privacy is desired. Out- side line is automatically selected.
3.2 Making Intercom Calls There are two methods for making an intercom call. One causes the called telephone to ring (tone-first). The other causes your voice to sound out at the called telephone (voice-first). Your installer can set the system to deliver either tone-first or voice-first calling. Note: The following instructions assume a tone-first setting.
Making Calls Note: The following instructions assume a voice-first default setting. Any user can change a call to a tone signaling for that call simply by pressing the INTERCOM button again after dialing the extension number or by pressing the DSS/BLF but- ton again.
• To speed dial a personal speed dial number, —While on hook, dial the speed dial number on the dial pad (0 to 9). • To speed dial a system speed dial number, —While on hook, dial * and the system speed dial number.

Automatic Route Selection (ARS) ARS allows the system to automatically select the least costly line group available to a station to route a call. The system modi- fies the dialed number, if needed, to match the selected line group. ARS makes routing decisions (which lines to route a call over, if and how to modify a number, and costing information) based entirely upon the programming of the system.

Page 142
Note: Pressing any button (mute, hold, etc.) on the speaker- phone while in full-duplex mode causes the system to perform the “speech training” test again. For example, if you press MUTE while in full-duplex mode, when you release the call from mute, the system will perform the entire “speech train- ing”...
• If both you and the distant party are using full-duplex speakerphones, the sensitivity to both echo path changes and volume reduction during double-talk is doubled from the sensitivity when just one full-duplex speakerphone is involved. Half-Duplex Speakerphone Guidelines The speakerphone user guidelines in this section do not apply when your speakerphone is operating in full-duplex mode.
Page 144
In some situations, such as when either you or the distant party is in a noisy environment, you may have to lift your handset to ensure a clear conversation. When using your speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther away from you than when you use a handset.
APPENDIX E - FEATURE NETWORKING SUPPORT The system that your IP speakerphone works into can be either a local stand-alone system or part of a system-to-system network.
