LCD
In its idle state, the 32-character LCD feature on your digital telephone gives you an 
accurate desk clock and calendar combination. When you have an outside call in 
progress, an elapsed time display gives a constant reminder of the call duration. 
Alphanumeric messaging capability is also provided (see “Messages, Memos, and 
Name Display” on Page 101). All display functions occur automatically as call 
processing proceeds.
A “+” next to the LCD readout (sample shown at right) on 
your telephone indicates there is more data in memory. Press 
 to advance through the information. Press 
 to 
switch from the CF display to the User Name display.
All LCD examples in this user guide are shown with Soft Keys turned OFF. If your 
telephone has Soft Keys turned ON, the displays may be different (e.g., the 
information on rows 1 and 2 is reversed), but they still enable you to follow the steps 
in this guide.
LCD Buttons
There are two sets of buttons available with the LCD, Control and Soft Key (see 
Figure 3). The Control buttons consist of the Mode, Page and Scroll functions, while 
the Soft Keys offer access to frequently-used features that appear as abbreviated 
prompts above the Control buttons.

Features2
This chapter lists all the digital telephone features in alphabetical order beginning on 
Page 20. These features can be performed on 2000-series digital telephones equipped 
with or without LCDs. Features which require a telephone equipped with a 
speakerphone are noted.
Before You Begin
If you are a new user of the Strata DK digital telephone, you need to find out if your 
telephone has been set up for Automatic Line Selection and Ringing Line Preference. 
You will also need to know if your telephone has tone or voice first signaling when 
you receive an internal call:

Tone Signaling rings.

Voice First Signaling does not ring; instead you hear a long tone, then the caller’s 
voice.
Each of these features are enabled in system programming and determine how you 
will make and answer calls on your telephone.
