ROLMphone Basics

Faceplate

The faceplate is a paper template that identifies features that you
access by pressing specific keys on your telephone. It shows which
system features have been assigned to your phone keys.

Line Keys

Your ROLMphone telephone has a separate line key for every
extension that appears on your phone. You use the line keys to answer
and place calls.

Multiple Line Appearances

Your phone may have multiple extensions, each of which is assigned
a separate line key. These line keys can be of different types. You will
have at least one line key, called the primary line key, which
corresponds to your extension. The status light that turns on when you
pick up your handset is next to your primary line key.
You may also have other lines on your phone. You can use both the
primary line and these other lines to make calls.
Your lines may also appear as lines (called multiple line appearances)
on other people's phones. Each person with an appearance of the line
on his or her phone has equal access to the line. Also, a call can be
placed on hold at one phone and then retrieved at another phone on
which that same line appears. (See "Hold" on page 2-14.)
If you have a multiple line appearance on your phone, you will need to
know how to tell if that line is in use. Your phone tells you about the
status of a line through the line key's status light. (See "Status Lights"
on page 1-13.)

Key Pad

Use the key pad on your phone just as you would any standard
telephone key pad for dialing telephone numbers. You can also use
your key pad to access system features available to your telephone for
which you do not have feature keys. (See "Feature Access Codes" on
page 1-12.)
