KEYSET FEATURES DIRECT STATION SELECTION/BUSY LAMP FIELD (DSS/BLF) KEYS (EXECUTIVE KEYSET ONLY) The Executive Keyset has 12 DSS/BLF keys that provide one-key in- tercom access to each of the 12 keysets. The lamps under the DSS/BLF keys create a busy lamp field and flash at different rates to indicate the status of each keyset. Each flash rate has a distinct meaning, as described below. Flash rates are given in interruptions per minute (IPM) or seconds on/off. Flash Rate Indication STEADY (constantly lit) The keyset is busy. LOCK-OUT $LASH The keyset is in lock-out (off hook (0.5 sec. on/3.5 sec. off) with no activity or unplugged). SLOW FLASH (30 IPM) An outside call is recalling. (1.0 sec. on/l.0 sec. off) DND FLASH The keyset is in do-not-disturb. (3.5 sec. on/O.5 sec. off) MEDIUM FLASH (60 IPM) The keyset is in call forward mode. VOLUME CONTROLS The ringer volume and speaker volume are controlled by separate thumbwheels on the side of the keyset. AUDIBLE SIGNALS Off-Book ringinq: When the keyset is busy, it will ring every 6 seconds to notify the user that an intercom or transferred call is waiting. A short ring tone and a slow-flashing line key in- dicate an outside call waiting; a double ring tone and a slow- flashing SYS HOLD key indicate an intercom call waiting. Confirmation tones: The system produces a confirmation tone to acknowledge that a key has been pressed on the keyset. These tones are heard through the handset or internal speaker for as long as the key is depressed. DTMF tones are heard while dialing or when a speed-dial number is dialed. Ring Tones and Busy Signals: Ring tones and busy signals are heard through the handset or the keysets internal speaker. When the speakerphone is in use (keyset is on hook), ring tones and busy signals normally heard through the handset are heard through the keysets internal speaker.

REYSET FEATURES SPEAKERPHONE Every keyset has an integrated (built-in) speakerphone that al- lows handsfree operation on outside calls and handsfree answering of intercom calls. The speakerphone is automatically activated by incoming intercom calls or when a line key is pressed while the keyset is on hook. The ON/OFF key is used to transfer the voice path between the handset and the speakerphone and to hang up from handsfree calls. There are two keyset programming options that can affect the speakerphone. Option 2 disables the handsfree feature on incom- ing intercom calls. Option 4 disables the feature that auto- matically activates the speakerphone when a line key is pressed. With either option enabled, the ON/OFF key is used to control the speakerphone. HEADSET CONNECTION AND OPERATION Two types of $-conductor, modular headsets can be attached to the keysets: headsets that have dynamic microphones or headsets with carbon microphones that have an external AC power source. When the headset is attached, the headset feature code (#04) must be entered to enable it. The headset is activated when the keyset user receives a handsfree intercom call, presses the ON/OFF key, or presses a line key. The ON/OFF key is also used to disconnect calls. The speakerphone cannot be used when a headset is enabled (headset code #04 has been entered). To connect a headset: (1) Disconnect the handset by unplugging the handset cord from the base of the keyset. Leave the handset in the cradle. (2) Insert the headset plug into the vacant handset jack. (3) While on hook, dial #04 to enable the headset feature. To disconnect the headset: (1) Reattach the handset. (2) While on hook, dial #04 to disable the headset feature.

* KEYSET FEATURES DATA DEVICE INTERFACE (EXECUTIVE KEYSET ONLY) The Executive Keyset has a modular jack (labeled DATA) that can be used for connecting a data device (such as a data terminal or personal computer) that has a direct-connection modem with an RJll C.O. line interface. It is used to communicate with remote data equipment through an intercom channel or outside line. While the data device is in use, the keyset user cannot place or receive calls. An outside call ringing in or an intercom call camping on will not interfere with the data transmission. To connect the data device to the Executive Keyset: Insert the connector end of the data device interface cable into the keyset DATA jack. To access a remote computer using a C.O. line: (1) Lift the handset and press an unlit line key. (2) Dial the telephone number or intercom number at the remote computer site. (3) When you hear the modem tone, press the DATA key and hang up. The DATA key flashes slowly. To access a remote computer using an intercom channel: (1) Lift the handset and press the desired DSS/BLF key. (2) Notify the called party that you wish to connect the device. (3) When the called party activates the remote computer by press- ing the DATA key, you hear modem tone. Press your DATA key and hang up. Both DATA keys flash slowly. To terminate the connection with the computer: EITHER, press the DATA key. The C.O. line or intercom channel is disconnected and the DATA key is unlit. OR. if you wish to speak to the party at the computer site after the data ,transmission, lift the handset and press the DATA key. This can only be done if the modem at the computer site can be turned off without dropping the C.O. line. GLX Owners Guide (Issue 1, 11/85) Page 15
INTERCOM CALLS The GLX System has two intercom channels that allow keyset users to place calls to one another. Intercom calls can be placed by dialing a two-digit intercom number (lo-21), pressing a DSS/BLF key on an Executive Keyset, or dialing 0 to call the attendant. Intercom calls ring in handsfree unless keyset option 2 is en- abled or unless the call was placed as a private intercom call. If desired, a keyset user can camp on to a busy keyset and wait until the keyset is available. The following intercom features are described in this section: l Ring Intercom First 0 Private Intercom Calls l Receiving and Placing Intercom Calls l DSS/BLF Key Skipping (Executive Keyset Only) RING INTERCOM FIRST Incoming intercom calls activate the keysets speaker and micro- phone to allow the user to answer handsfree. The handsfree in- tercom feature can be disabled for a specific keyset by enabling keyset option 2. This causes all incoming calls to ring in as private intercom calls. The keyset user hears a double ring tone every 2 seconds and must lift the handset or press the ON/OFF key to answer. PRIVATE INTERCOM CALLS When desired, a keyset user can place a private (non-handsfree) call to another keyset by dialing 8 before dialing the intercom number or before pressing a DSS/BLF key on the Executive Keyset. This causes the call to ring in as a private intercom call in- stead of ringing in handsfree. The called party hears a double ring tone every 2 seconds and must lift the handset or press the ON/OFF key to answer. RECEIVING AND PLACING INTERCOM CALLS Procedures apply to both Standard or Executive Keysets unless otherwise specified. To receive an intercom call: If you hear one double ring tone and a call announcement and the ON/OFF key is lit: EITHER, respond handsfree. OR, lift the handset for privacy. The ON/OFF key is unlit.

If the desired keyset is busy, you can press the lit DSS/BLF key or dial the intercom number and camp on until the party is avail- able. If the keyset has a previous intercom call waiting, you hear a continuous fast busy signal. To initiate intercom camp-on: not hang up. When you hear a busy signal, do After the fifth busy signal, you camp on and hear music, if available. (If you hear a continuous fast busy signal, another keyset is camped on to the keyset. later.) Hang up and try When the keyset is available, your call rings in as usual. GLX Owners Guide (Issue 1, 11/85) Page 17
INTERCOM CALLS D~S/BLF KEY SKIPPING (EXECUTIVE KEYSET ONLY) Executive Keysets have DSS/BLF keys that can be used to place in- tercom calls. If an Executive Keyset user presses a DSS/BLF key while on an intercom call, the current call is dropped and a call is placed to the keyset associated with the pressed DSS/BLF key. This is faster than pressing and releasing the hookswitch and then pressing the desired DSS/BLF key. To use DSS/BLF key skipping: When you are finished with an in- tercom call and wish to place another intercom call, do not hang up. Press the DSS/BLF key of the party you wish to call. You are disconnected from the first call and hear the second call ring as usual. Note : Pressing a DSS/BLF key and hanging up while on an outside call transfers the outside call to the called keyset. OUTSIDE CALLS The following outside call features are described in this sec- tion: l Receiving and Placing Outside Calls l Outside Dial Tone Restore and Timed Hookflash l Line Key Skipping l On-Hook Dialing of Outside Calls RECEIVING AND PLACING OUTSIDE CALLS To receive an outside call: When you see a slow-flashing line key and hear a ring tone every 6 seconds (at your keyset or an- other keyset), lift the handset and press the slow-flashing line key. The call is connected and the line key is steadily lit. To place an outside call: (1) Lift the handset and press an unlit line key. If you hear a busy signal, you tried to access a busy C.O. line or the C.O. line you selected is restricted. Line key is lit when the line has been accessed. (2) Dial the desired telephone number. You may manually dial the number or use the speed-dial or redial features. If you hear a fast busy signal after dialing, your keyset is toll re- stricted. GLX Owner% Guide (Issue 1, 11/85) Page 18
* OUTSIDE CALLS OUTSIDE DIAL TONE RESTORE AND TIMED HOORFLASH The GLX System is designed to send a timed hookflash when the keyset user presses the line key (or the FLASH key on the Execu- tive Keyset) while on an outside call. This allows the user to disconnect from one call and restore dial tone on the same C.O. line to place a second call. This is faster than pressing and releasing the hookswitch and then pressing the line key to make a call. A timed hookflash may be required when the system is used behind a PBX system or to access telephone company features. If so, the keyset user simply presses the line key (or FLASB key) instead of the hookswitch when a hookflash is needed. If the system is used behind a PBX, this feature will re-access PBX features instead of restoring C.O. dial tone. To restore outside dial tone: After you are finished with the call, do not hang up. Press the same line key (or FLASH key on an Executive Keyset). You hear dial tone and can place an out- going call. LINE KEY SKIPPING Line key skipping allows keyset users to disconnect from one out- side call and access another C.O. line by pressing another line key. This is faster than pressing and releasing the hookswitch and pressing a line key. If the system is used behind a PBX, this feature will re-access PBX dial tone instead of accessing C.O. dial tone. To use line key skipping: After you are finished with an outside call, do not hang up. Press an unlit line key to place a call or press a flashing or fluttering line key to answer a ringing, re- calling, or holding outside call. The selected line key lights.

ODTSIDE CALLS ON-HOOK DIALING OF OUTSIDE CALLS A keyset user can place an outside call without lifting the hand- set, using the integrated speakerphone. This method allows the user to speak handsfree once the call is connected. To dial while on hook: Note : If your keyset speakerphone has been disabled by keyset option 4, you must press the ON/OFF key to turn on the speaker- phone before you press the unlit line key. (1) While on hook, press an unlit line key. The line key and ON/OFF key light. You hear outside dial tone. (2) Dial the desired telephone number. (3) When the called party answers, EITHER, respond handsfree. OR, lift the handset for privacy. The ON/OFF key is unlit. Note : At any time during a handsfree call, you may lift the handset for a private conversation. To return to the speak- erphone, press the ON/OFF key and replace the handset. (4) To disconnect, press the ON/OFF key (if on hook) or hang up (if off hook). SYSTEM AND STATION SPEED DIALING Speed dialing allows keyset users to store frequently dialed num- bers. There are two types of speed dialing available on the GLX Sys tern : station speed dialing and system speed dialing. Both station and system speed-dial numbers are stored in the data base, which is protected by the data base back-up battery. In the event of a power failure, they will not be erased. Speed-dial numbers can contain up to 32 digits, including pauses. For example, the number can contain an SCC local telephone num- ber, a pause, the access code, a pause, and the desired telephone number. GLX Owners Guide (Issue 1, ll/SS) Page 20
SYSTEM AND STATION SPEED DIALING STATION SPEED DIALING Up to nine station speed-dial numbers can be stored by keyset users for their personal use. They are identified by a one-digit memory location code (l-9). Location code 1 is also used for the call forwarding feature. To store or change station speed-dial numbers: Note: If you make a mistake while dialing the number, press any line key. If you press an invalid key or dial an invalid loca- tion code, you hear four fast tones and the keyset is returned to the idle state. In either case, the original number is retained. (1) While on hook, press the SPDL key. The SPDL key flutters. (2) Dial the one-digit memory location code (l-9). (3) Dial the telephone number (up to 32 digits, including the pauses). To include pauses in the number, press the SPDL key once for each pause. If more than 32 digits are dialed, only the last 32 digits are retained. (4) Lift and replace the handset. You hear a confirmation tone and the SPDL key is unlit. To dial station speed-dial numbers: (1) Lift the handset and press an unlit line key. (2) Press the SPDL key. The SPDL key lights. (3) Dial the one-digit memory location code (l-9). The number is dialed and the SPDL key is unlit. If you dial an invalid location code, you hear a busy signal and the C.O. line is placed on hold. To erase a station speed-dial number without entering a new number: (1) While on hook, press the SPDL key. The SPDL key flutters. (2) Dial the memory location code (l-9) to be erased. (3) Press the SPDL key again. (4) Lift and replace the handset. You hear a confirmation tone and the SPDL key is unlit. GLX Owners Guide (Issue 1, 11/85) Page 21
