A Quick Explanation......
All telephone feature commands are initiated from the keypad of your touch tone
phone. They are simple to use and easy to remember! All telephone feature
commands begin with the # (pound) symbol (factory preset).
Note: You have the option of choosing the * (star) symbol as the beginning com-
mand. This is selectable via DIP switch number 1 on the rear of the Z•600. You
may wish to select the star (*) command if the pound symbol is not compatible
with any telephone/home office equipment or security system that you are
currently using in your home.
The second key press in each command coincides with the first letter of that fea-
ture––for instance to place a caller on Hold, press #, then 4 ( the H key on your
telephone keypad).
The Z•600 feature key press sequences can also be programmed to your tele-
phones' Speed Dial buttons, should your phones have this feature. For example:
#,P can be programmed to Speed Dial Number 1 for Paging throughout the home;
#,D and #,D,2 can be programmed to Speed Dial Numbers 2 & 3 for instant
doorspeaker communication; #1,1 (activate relay #1) can be programmed to
Speed Dial Number 4 to turn the lights on throughout the house at the press of a
single digit (X-10 lighting control module or similar device required).
How To...
PAGE––To Page throughout the house, simply press # , then 7 (the P key on
your keypad). Speak into the phone receiver and your voice will be
heard throughout the house over the in-wall speakers. If music is pre-
sent over the in-wall speakers, it will automatically mute allowing your
page to be heard. If you have a caller on the phone, they will automati-
cally be put on hold. You can get the caller back by simply pressing any
key (except "0") on the telephone keypad.
PLACE A CALLER ON HOLD––To place a caller on hold, simply press #, then
4 (the H key on your keypad) and hang up. The call can then be taken
on another phone elsewhere in your home. Music-On-Hold is available
to the outside caller while on hold.
PHONE-TO-PHONE INTERCOM––This feature allows you to first, Page a
family member over the in-wall speakers, then speak with them over
the phone without the conversation being heard over the in-wall speak-
ers. To perform this function, simply press #, then 7 (the P key on your
keypad) followed by the numeric 0 key.
COMMUNICATE VIA A DOOR SPEAKER––To speak with visitors at your
dwelling entrances, simply press #, then 3 ( the D key on your keypad)
for the front door, or #3,2 for the back or side door. (Requires the ELAN
Door Speaker Assembly DS1500). Should you need to communicate
with both doorspeakers, you can toggle between Doorspeaker 1 and
600
