Standard Telephones

In addition to system phones, you can connect industry-standard touch-tone or
rotary dial phones—and even some feature phones (which have built-in calling
features)—directly to the system. You can also combine standard phones on the
same extension with system phones or other devices, without using expensive
adapters or connectors.
Standard phones can do many of the things that system phones can do, and you
can save money by using them in certain situations when a system telephone is
not needed. Follow these guidelines when using standard phones:
Use standard phones as power failure backups; system phones will not
work. If you connect standard phones to the first two extensions on the
PARTNER ACS processor module, users can place and answer outside
calls on the first two lines. If you connect a standard phone to the first
extension on each 206 module, users can place and answer outside calls
on the first line of each 206 module. You can connect standard phones in
combination with system phones at power failure extensions, or you can
simply keep spare standard phones at those extensions to serve as
replacements in case of a power failure.

If Call Waiting (#316) is assigned to an extension with a standard phone
connected, users hear a call-waiting tone (two beeps) when a second call
comes in to the extension. The call-waiting tone is not repeated.
Use the switchhook on a standard phone to place calls on hold, park a call,
transfer a call, answer a call-waiting call, or set up a conference call. (For

If the standard phone has a message light, use it to notify users of
messages. (For details, see ''Message Light On (F09XX)'' on page 5-186
and ''Message Light Off (F10XX)'' on page 5-184. For a list of supported

have a voice messaging system, the light is used to indicate that a
message has been left in your mailbox. On a standard phone, the message
light flashes when the phone is idle to indicate that the extension has
received a message.
