Welcome; About This Guide - Inter-Tel 8690 User Manual

ELCOME
Your new Model 8690 endpoint provides access to several features, each of which is
described in this guide. The Inter-Tel multi-protocol endpoints support two different
modes of network protocols, and can operate in either Inter-Tel Protocol (ITP) mode
or Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) mode. The operating mode determines which fea-
tures and options are enabled on the endpoint. This guide is for the Model 8690 end-
point operating in SIP mode. If your endpoint is configured to operate in ITP mode,
request a copy of the Model 8690 User Guide: Inter-Tel Protocol Mode (part number
550.8116) from your system administrator.
The About This Guide section below lists the different sections in this user guide and
describes the type of information you can find there.
