How to Program
1 Label a button with lights.
2 Enter programming mode by sliding the T/P
switch to P. (Digital phones: Dial #33.)
3 Press the button you want to program.
4 Dial *75.
5 Program another feature, or leave
programming mode by sliding the T/P switch
to the center position. (Digital phones: Dial
#00.)
If you want calls to be answered automatically by an optional modem or an
answering machine connected to your phone, you need to program an Auto
Answer-All button.
You can have both Auto Answer-All and Auto Answer-Intercom
programmed for your phone; however, the two features cannot be turned
on at your phone at the same time.
If you want an answering machine to answer intercom calls, use the Auto
Answer-All rather than the Auto Answer-Intercom feature. If you try to
use an answering machine with the Auto Answer-Intercom feature, it may
cause intercom calls to be dropped.
If you want an answering machine to answer only intercom calls, not
outside calls, program all your lines for no ring. See "Ringing Options" in
this section.
In order to use a modem or answering machine with your analog phone,
you must have a General Purpose Adapter. (See "General Purpose
Adapter" in Section 2, "System Components.")
Do not use this feature with the Hands-Free Unit (HFU). Instead,
program Auto-Answer-Intercom to identify to the control unit that an
HFU is connected to your phone. Then, when you complete an intercom
call, the control unit automatically turns off the HFU, and when you
receive an intercom call, a signal sounds to alert you.
