							7.7 Understanding The DATA Button Light
The optional Data Interface Unit (DIU) provides connections for your
standard multiline digital telephone and an Industry Standard
Telephone (IST) device. The DIU enables you to switch between your
multiline telephone and an IST device (an industry standard telephone,
FAX machine, modem, cordless telephone, or answering machine).
When you have a DIU (either local or remote) assigned to your
multiline telephone, your telephone will have a preprogrammed DATA
button labeled DATA by the system installer. The DATA LED will
provide you with the following visual feedback on the operating status
of the DIU.
DATA LED DIU STATUS
Off Digital mode (multiline telephone selected)
On (green) IST device selected but not active
On (red) IST device busy
Flashing (red) IST device ringing
If the DIU has been removed or is inoperable, the DATA LED will be
off. If this occurs, plug the multiline telephone into a digital station port.
•To select the multiline telephone (DATA LED on or flashing),
1. Press the preprogrammedDATAbutton. If a call is in progress on
the IST device, it will transfer to the multiline telephone if the
multiline telephone is off hook or in speakerphone operation. If the
multiline telephone is on hook, the call will be dropped.
•To select the IST device (DATA LED off),
1. Press the preprogrammedDATAbutton. If a call is in progress on
the multiline telephone, it will transfer to the IST device if that
device is off hook. If the IST device is on hook, the call will be
dropped. You can still receive visual messages via the LEDs and
LCD on your multiline telephone, even though the voice path is
routed to the IST device.
NOTE: If you transfer a line to your own multiline telephone then
press the DATA button, the IST device will ring.

							7.8 Using The IMIST Module
Impact SCS8212S-** and 8212N-** speakerphones equipped with the
optional IMIST module can support an IST device (modem, FAX
machine, industry-standard telephone, etc.) in addition to the
speakerphone. Depending on system programming, the IST device may
be used to make outgoing calls and receive incoming calls.
The functionality of the IMIST module is similar to the optional Data
Interface Unit (see Section 7.7).
Functioning only on a DSU II system, the IMIST module does not have
its own extension number and does not function simultaneously with
the speakerphone.
NOTE: The IMIST module does not provide voltage to light a message
waiting light. Message waiting lights on devices plugged into
the IMIST module will not function.
If you have any other questions about IST devices, refer to
GCA70–237,Industry-Standard Telephone Station User’s Guide.
NOTE: The IMIST module has a separate power supply. The wall
transformer is a UL and CSA approved Class 2 device
operating from 120 Vac, 60 Hz, 16 watts and provides an
output of 24 Vac at 450 mA. For replacement, order Comdial
P/N DIU-PTR.

buttons. This feature allows the system to temporarily assign a line to
your station that you would normally not have. You will have line
appearance whenever a call appears at one of these locations.
•To answer a call appearing at a dynamic line button,
1. Press the flashing button and lift handset.

							Sending And Receiving
Non-Verbal Messages
8.1 Lighting The Message Light
If the system installer designates your speakerphone as a central message
desk or programs it to have message-wait originate ability, you can turn
on the message-waiting light of any other telephone. This light lets that
telephone user know that you have a message for him or her.
The message-waiting light is located in different places on the various
model telephones. On the 8124S and 8112S telephones, the message
waiting light is located above the HOLD button. On the 8112N
telephone, the message waiting light is located above the dial pad. The
8212S and 8212N telephones have a dedicated message waiting button
and light, labeled MESSAGE. For more information on button locations,
see Chapter 1.
If your telephone receives a message and has a Directed Station Select
DSS button that is programmed to call the station that left the message,
the light next to that station’s DSS button on your telephone will flash.
