Handset Mute
44-Series phones only
CPC-AII/B Version 8.0, CPC-S/M Version 2.0, or CPC-EX Version 1.0 only
DescriptionWhile using the handset (not on speaker) during a phone conversation, you 
can press the MUTE key to block audio to the other party -- you can still 
hear them, but they can’t hear you. This feature is called “Handset Mute.”
Operation1. To turn on Handset Mute while using the handset, press the MUTE 
key.
 The MUTE indicator lamp (LED next to MUTE key) will 
flash.
 The handset transmitter will be muted. You will still be able 
to hear the other party, but they can’t hear you.
2. To turn off Handset Mute, do one of the following:
-- press the MUTE key again;
-- press HOLD to place the call on hold;
-- replace the handset on-hook; or
-- press the flashing FF-key to answer another call.
 Note: This will drop the first call unless Key Bank 
Hold is enabled (FF1 2# 1# 9#).
 The MUTE indicator lamp will stop flashing.
NotesHeadset Use. The Handset Mute feature also works if you are using a 
headset on the phone to handle calls (#51 activates Headset mode).
Speakerphone Use. The MUTE key works the same as before (mutes the 
microphone) when you are on speaker. The MUTE lamp lights steadily 
when the microphone is muted, and flashes when the handset is muted.
Handsfree Answerback. The MUTE key enables or disables Handsfree 
Answerback the same as before. (Handsfree Answerback allows you to 
answer intercom calls on speaker, without picking up the handset. While 
the phone is idle, press the MUTE key to toggle between Handsfree 
Answerback On and Off. When the MUTE indicator lamp is unlit, 
Handsfree Answerback is ON. When the lamp is lit, Handsfree 
Answerback is OFF.)
Offhook Monitoring. This feature and Handset Mute can both be ON 
simultaneously, so that both the speaker and handset transmitters are muted 
(but the speaker and handset receivers still operate). For more information 
about Offhook Monitoring, see Appendix B:-12 of these Release Notes.
Barge-Ins During Handset Mute. If another phone barges in on your call 
while Handset Mute is ON, and you change to conference talk (but not by 
pressing HOLD), Handset Mute will remain ON. 
						

							Appendix B. CPC-AII/B 8.0 Feature Update Section 700-Operation
Page B-12 DBS Manual - Revised April 2000 DBS-2.3/9.2-700
FF-Key/One-Touch Key Restriction. Handset Mute cannot be assigned to 
an FF-key or a one-touch (soft) key.
Off-Hook Monitoring
44-Series phones only
CPC-AII/B Version 8.0, CPC-S/M Version 2.0, or CPC-EX Version 1.0 only
DescriptionOff-Hook Monitoring lets you put a call on speaker while the handset is 
off-hook. You can still communicate with the outside party via the handset, 
but you will also be able to hear him on the phone’s speaker. He will only 
be able to hear what is spoken through your handset, however - audio will 
not be transmitted through your microphone.
Operation1. During a handset call, press the ON/OFF key.
 Another receiver path is established on the phone’s speaker 
-- you can now hear the outside party on the speaker as well 
as in the handset.
 Your phone’s microphone is muted so that the outside party 
hears only what is spoken through your handset. (To mute 
handset transmission, press MUTE.)
2. To disable Off-Hook Monitor (“kill” the speaker but stay on 
the line with the outside party through the handset), press ON/
OFF again.
Separate Speaker Volumes for Internal vs. CO calls
44-Series phones only
CPC-AII/B Version 8.0, CPC-S/M Version 2.0, or CPC-EX Version 1.0 only
DescriptionYou can now establish separate speaker volumes for internal (intercom) 
and external (CO) calls.
OperationTo adjust volume levels, press the VOLUME
 key (s or t) during the 
appropriate call state. 
NotesAdjusting speaker volume will affect only the speaker (i.e., not the 
handset), and vice-versa.

DBS-2.3/9.2-700 DBS Manual - Revised April 2000   Page B-13
Analog Adapter
44-Series phones only
CPC-AII/B Version 8.0, CPC-S/M Version 2.0, or CPC-EX Version 1.0 only
DescriptionThe Analog Adapter (VB-44100) consists of a base adapter and PC board 
which is installed on the underside of the phone. It is used to connect the 
44-Series large-display phone to an analog device such as an SLT 
telephone, cordless phone, FAX machine, or modem. This allows the same 
phone line to be used to alternate between normal phone calls and analog 
communications. (To install, see the instructions supplied with VB-44100).
ProgrammingSee Section 400 - Programming (Appendix D) for more detailed 
programming information.
OperationThe first device to go off-hook will seize the line (off-hook is either lifting 
the handset or pressing the ON/OFF key). If the analog device goes off-
hook first, the large-display phone will be unable to dial or go off-hook.
You can choose which device will ring by going off-hook at either the 
digital key telephone or the analog device and dialing *71
. The digital key 
telephone display will reflect “Analog port RING” or “Key Tel RING”, 
depending on which device is selected - the default is “Key Tel RING”.
You can still answer an incoming call from either device, regardless of 
which device is ringing. For example, if the analog device is ringing, you 
can pick up the call on the digital key telephone by going off-hook before 
the analog device does. Similarly, if the digital key telephone is ringing or 
has not answered a voice call, the analog device can pick up the call by 
going off-hook first.
You can program the *71 ring select command into an FF key. Pressing the 
key toggles between “Analog Port RING” and “Key Tel RING”. When the 
analog port is set to ring, the FF key LED lights red. When the key 
telephone is set to ring, the LED is off. 
NotesPhone Restrictions
 The Analog Adapter will work on the large-display phone only (VB-
44225).
 A dial-pulse SLT will not function on the analog port.
 Stutter Dial Tone (indicating Call-Forwarding mode, Do-Not-Disturb 
mode, etc.) will not function on an SLT connected to the Analog 
Adapter.
 An analog phone connected to the Analog Adapter cannot program or 
access speed dials. 
						

							Appendix B. CPC-AII/B 8.0 Feature Update Section 700-Operation
Page B-14 DBS Manual - Revised April 2000 DBS-2.3/9.2-700
Incoming Calls
 You cannot program both devices to ring simultaneously.
 The “*71” code will not work if the other device is in use.
 The “*71” code will not work if FF3 (ExtPort)# 51# is set to “0”.
 If set to “Analog port RING”, the large-display phone will work like an 
SLT/OPX (no page announcements, no voice calls from other 
extensions, etc.).
 If the phone is in CF/DND (Call-Forward or Do Not Disturb), the phone 
will remain in CF/DND even if the ringing device is changed via the 
*71 code.
 The incoming ring pattern for the analog device is the same as for the 
digital key telephone (determined by the Extension Ring Pattern in FF3 
(ExtPort)# 39# (0-9)#). If this address is set to “0” (determined by CO), 
the analog device will automatically default to “1 second ON, 3 seconds 
OFF.”
Ring Patterns Not Applicable to Analog Device. The following ring 
pattern addresses 
will not affect the analog device:
Analog Transfer Ring Pattern FF1  2#  1#  31#  (0-6)#
SLT DISA Ring Pattern FF1  2#  1#  34#  (0 or 1)#
Inbound Ring Pattern FF2  (Trunk)#  17#  (0-9)#
Flash Interaction. Any disconnect signal sent to the analog port must be 
greater than the SLT Flash Control; otherwise the disconnect signal will be 
interpreted as a flash and the call will be placed on hold.
Programming Addresses That Affect the Analog Device. The following 
addresses will control the analog device, but will not affect the digital key 
telephone:
AEC Disconnect Duration FF1  2#  1#  35#  (0-15)#
SLT Flash Control FF1  2#  1#  11#  (0 or 1)#
SLT Onhook Flash Timer FF1  3#  14#  (0-6)#
AEC Disconnect FF3  (ExtPort)#  46#  (0 
or 1)#
Analog Port on Large-Display Phone  FF3  (ExtPort)#  51#  (0 
or 1)#
Data Security on Analog Port  FF3  (ExtPort)#  52#  (0 
or 1)#
