  • Page 40: Grounding The System

    Digital Telephone System IMI66–107 2.3.2 Grounding The System If spare conductors exist in the cables between the station and the 66M-xx connector blocks, it is good practice to connect them to an earth ground. Doing this may help prevent them from inducing radio frequency and/or AC interference into the system.
  • Page 41 IMI66–107 Digital Telephone System Be sure that all of the ground connections are without splices and are visible for inspection and maintenance. Tag all of the ground connections with a sign that reads: Do Not Remove Or Disconnect. If you install expansion modules on the base cabinet, attach at least a #10 or #12 insulated, solid copper wire between the frame ground stud on the expansion module(s) to the frame ground stud on the base cabinet.

  • Page 47: Grounding The Stations

    2.5.2 Relocating The Stations The Comdial proprietary telephones identify themselves to the system when you install them. The system assigns an extension number and all other programmable attributes to station ports as a default that you can reprogram as needed. Plus, you can use programming action to reassign attributes of one station port to a different station port if you wish.

    IMI66–107 Digital Telephone System Response Messaging This feature allows a user to reply in a non-verbal manner to a voice announce or tone-signaled intercom call or to a subdued off-hook voice announce call if the intercom caller is using an LCD speakerphone. A station user can press a programmable button in response to an intercom call and send a message to be shown on the display of the calling station.

Using such an arrangement, it is possible for a user to determine that certain lines are ringing, such as in a night transfer (of ringing) mode, and go to the nearest telephone and answer the call. The most common use for this arrangement is as a night bell eliminating the need for external equipment as required with the common ringer and auxiliary ringer interface.

    LCD will indicate “System Busy” and deny the call. If you do install more than one Scout wireless telephone, Comdial recommends that you leave at least 10 feet between adjacent base units. The range of each Scout telephone is affected by the layout and location of the base unit, so it is a good idea to install the base unit in an unimpeded area and at desk-level or higher.

    IMI66–107 Digital Telephone System Flexible Station Numbering Plan The system supports a flexible station numbering plan for individual stations. Each station can be programmed to respond to the dialing of any available number between 10 and 7999. This feature may be used to match the calling number of a station located in a pre-numbered area to that area number.

The user can dial a special code to turn on the BLF light at the called station that is assigned to the calling station. This light indicates that a callback is requested.
  • Page 405 IMI66–107 Digital Telephone System Subdued Off-Hook Voice Announce (SOHVA) Groups The programmer can program the ability of station ports to originate and/or receive SOHVA calls by assigning SOHVA calling groups to station ports. This means that he or she can arrange certain station ports together for SOHVA calling between one another while excluding other station ports in the system from this group.

    Digital Telephone System IMI66–107 Example 1: Allow station port 10 to originate SOHVA messages to all stations in the system and allow those stations the ability to originate SOHVA messages to each other but not to station port 10. Assign group 1 to station port 10 and assign group 2 to all other station ports.

    Digital Telephone System IMI66–107 Toll Restriction Default Toll Restriction The system defaults two toll restriction tables with pre-programmed values and pre-assigned to all lines. The programmer needs only to assign these tables to the stations by programming action to put them into effect. He or she can use the toll restriction table configuration class of service programming to reprogram the defaulted tables with different information as needed.

    IMI66–107 Digital Telephone System tables replace any that he or she may have assigned to the station for normal, or day mode, operation. For example: a programmer can arrange for a station that has no other toll restriction table assignment to receive a toll restriction table which will restrict everything but local calls and will only take effect when the system is placed in the night transfer (of ringing) mode.
