As you can see, your Model 8520 and telephone system come equipped with many
features. To help you understand what everything means, it is recommended that you
read the following information before you use your endpoint:
•
Your telephone system may be programmed for one or two dial tones. Systems
with two dial tones have one for intercom calls and one for outside calls.
•
Many features "time out" if you wait too long before performing the next step. If
this happens, you must hang up and start over.
•
If you hear four fast tones or repeating fast tones, you have pressed an invalid
button combination, tried to select a restricted line, dialed a restricted or invalid
number, dialed too slowly between digits, or waited too long before performing
the next step. Hang up and try again.
•
Some endpoint models have red/green lamps in the feature buttons. Green indi-
cates a call is ringing, holding, or active on your endpoint. Red means the call is
on another endpoint. If the buttons only light red, either your endpoint does not
have the green lamps, or the system is not programmed to support the two lamp
colors.
NOTE:

off. For example, you must first go "off-hook" to make a call, but you must go
"on-hook" to end a call.
