1.2 Overview This user’s guide covers five different telephone models. There are several differences as noted below. •The 8112N and 8212N do not have speakerphone capability. Therefore, you must lift the handset to perform any telephone functions: making calls, answering calls, programming your telephone, etc. •The 8112N and 8212N cannot receive voice announce calls. •The 8112N and 8212N cannot use the Group Listen feature. •The 8112N and 8212N cannot use the Background Music feature. •The 8112N does not have any LEDs beside its programmable buttons and therefore does not provide any status indications for these buttons. •The 8112N does not have a mute key. •The 8112N and 8212N does not have a handset volume control. •The IMIST device only works with the 8212S and 8212N telephones. •The 8124S and 8112S telephones have a rocker switch style volume control instead of separate volume up and volume down buttons. •Message waiting lights: –On the 8124S and 8112S, the message waiting light is above the HOLD button. –On the 8112N, the message waiting light is above the dialpad. –On the 8212S and 8212N there is a dedicated message button with an associated light beside it. •Only the 8212S and 8212N support the ICVOL handset with independent volume control. •8212S and 8212N have adjustable pedestals.

1.3 Using Your Speakerphone On the speakerphone-equipped models (8124S-**, 8112S-**, and 8212S-**) the microphone and loudspeaker are farther away from you than when you use a handset. Both the signal from the loudspeaker and the signal to the microphone must be strengthened. When microphones and loudspeakers are close together (such as in a speakerphone), additional amplification typically generates a ringing sound (public address systems do this if the volume is too high or the microphone is too close to a loudspeaker). Your speakerphone’s sound-activated switches allow either the microphone or the loudspeaker to be on at a given time. This means that sounds travel in only one direction at a particular moment. •To manually place a call using your speakerphone, 1. Press the line button or theINTERCOMbutton. 2. Dial the number. 3. When party answers, speak toward the telephone. •To autodial using your speakerphone, 1. Press the programmed button and talk when your party answers. •To answer a call with your speakerphone, 1. Press the line button with flashing red or orange light. 2. Speak toward the telephone to answer the call. •To answer an intercom call with your speakerphone, 1. Press theINTERCOMbutton and speak toward the telephone after hearing two short rings, —OR— If your system is configured for voice-first calling, speak to- ward the telephone to answer the call after hearing the caller’s voice. •To end a call with your speakerphone, 1. PressSPEAKER. Introducing The Telephone GCA70–248 1 – 4 Non-LCD Station Users Guide

Speakerphone User Guidelines ·Both parties cannot talk at the same time. You must wait for silence out of your loudspeaker before talking. You must stop talking to hear the other party. ·Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment. ·Speak slightly louder than normal and with a clear, authoritative voice. For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and face the telephone. ·Raising the volume of the loudspeaker makes it easier for the sound-activated switches in your telephone to select the distant party’s voice. Lowering the volume of the loudspeaker makes it easier for the switches to select your voice. ·Since the system takes several seconds to provide the best switching, constant sound patterns—such as elongating your words and playing externally-supplied music—may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. ·Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone. Rooms with hard, flat surfaces that reflect sound may affect the sound-activated switches. ·If you are using a handset and the other party is using a speakerphone, avoid breathing heavily into your microphone. Avoid other sounds that may affect the distant telephone’s sound-activated switches. ·In some situations, such as when either you or the distant party are in a noisy environment, you may have to lift your handset to ensure a clear conversation. ·When both you and the distant party use speakerphones, the sound-activated switches can occasionally detect both voices simultaneously, thus blocking out both voices.
