The VDM has the capability of maintaining four active RF connections between the VDM and the handsets. This means that only four handsets may be in use at any one time. All of the call processing states described in the next chapters require the handset to use an RF channel. Any time a function is attempted which requires an RF channel, but one is not available, the handset displays, “No Channel Available.” Text Conventions Throughout this document the following conventions are used to identify special text elements. • Keypad names, soft key names, and menu items appear in bold. • Definitions appear in bold italic in the left margin. • Supplemental information about a topic appears as a Note: in the left margin. • Multiple menu selections are separated by |. For example, if you are instructed to select Menu | Speed Dial List, you would first select Menu, and then Speed Dial List from the submenu that appears. 1-1 Description of the Handset Keys Key Description Four soft keys Menu These keys are context sensitive and perform the operation described on the display directly above them. Activates the idle or active menu. Pressing it during a menu escapes one level up from the menu. Pressing and holding menu for over one second completely escapes out of any menu. L1, L2, L3, and L4 Speaker icon Line keys with LEDs. Speaker key with LED. Keypad keys (0 to 9, *, #) Used for dialing or data entry. Pressing and holding 0 to 9 for over one second during idle makes a speed call. Pressing and holding # for over one second during idle state will lock the keypad. Invoke by pressing # for at least one second. Lock key Power on Log Invoke by pressing the Flash key for at least one second during idle or while the handset is powered off. During data entry of a phone number, this key inserts a two second delay. Pressing and holding Flash for over one second during idle turns the phone off. Pressing Flash when the phone is off powers the phone on. Press to go in and out of the call log menu. Int Intercom key. Flash 1-2 Home RF User Guide Power On Note: The Flash key is valid even when the keypad is locked. To power the handset on, press the Flash key for at least 1 second while the handset is powered off. To power the handset off, press the Flash key for at least 1 second while the handset is idle. Lock Key To activate: Press the # key for at least 1 second while the device is in the idle state. Use this feature to lock the keys on the handset to prevent accidental key presses. After activating the key lock, the handset displays “Keypad Locked” and sounds a confirmation tone. When the keypad is locked, the only keys that are operational are the unlock key (#) and the Flash key. You can answer an incoming call by pressing the corresponding line key or the speaker key. When invalid keys are pressed while the keypad is locked, the device displays: Lock/Unlock Keypad: Press & Hold “#”. Using Soft keys Under the display screen, there are two rocker soft keys. The functionality of each key changes depending on the currently selected menu item. From an idle state, the left soft key is assigned DIR and LOG. The right key is assigned MSG and RDL. After initiating a function, such as LOG to access the call log, the left soft key most commonly allows you to scroll through menu items, with < and > displayed on the screen. The right soft key generally allows you to delete an item or cancel a function (DEL or ESC) or confirm an action (OK). 1-3 Registering a Handset Note: If the VDM receives at least on “Locate” message within 5 seconds, it does not go into Registration Mode. Note: If no handsets register within 60 seconds, the process ceases. Each handset must be registered to communicate with the VDM. At power up or reset, the VDM automatically goes into Registration Mode if no handsets are registered. The VDM waits for a “Locate” signal from any registered handset. If the VDM does not receive at least one “Locate” message within 5 seconds, it goes into registration mode. The VDM remains in Registration Mode until a handset registers or until 60-seconds is up. After one handset has been registered, it can be used to register other nonsubscriber handsets that have been placed in the Search Mode. Registering Additional Handsets To register additional handsets: 1 From an idle state, press the Menu key. 2 Use the left soft key to scroll to System Settings, and then press the OK soft key. 3 Use the left soft key to scroll to Register Handset. 4 Press the OK soft key. If an incoming call rings at the initiating handset during the registration process, the handset ceases to display the registration status messages and you can accept the call, as normal, on that handset. The VDM continues the registration process or times out within the 60 seconds. Deregistering the Handset Note: A Handset can Deregister itself and/or it can Deregister other Handsets. The Deregister feature allows you to remove a registered handset from the system. After a handset is deregistered, all settings are returned to factory default. CAUTION: All personal settings such as Speed Dial lists, Call Logs, and Phone Directories are cleared. To deregister a handset: 1 From an idle state, press the Menu key. 2 Use the left soft key to scroll to System Settings, and then press the OK soft key. 1-4 Home RF User Guide 3 Use the left soft key to scroll to DeRegister Hndst, and then press the OK soft key. 4 Scroll to the desired handset. 5 Press the OK soft key. The handset is deregistered and removed from the list. You can repeat steps 3 and 4 to deregister additional handsets, or press the ESC soft key to exit out of this menu. Using a Headset Your handset has a headset jack interface. When a headset is plugged in, all incoming calls are received via the headset if the Line key is pressed. Calls are directed through the speaker phone if the Spkr key is pressed. 1-5 CHAPTER MENU QUICK REFERENCE CHAPTER0 This chapter provides an overview of the menu structure.

Press the OK soft key to select Dial Number. Scroll through your directory list using the < or > soft keys. When the desired number is displayed, press the OK soft key. Note: Press Menu | Speed Dial List to view keypad assignments. • Press the LOG soft key to access previously received calls. Scroll through the list using the < or > soft keys. When the desired number is displayed, press the OK soft key. • Press a Line key or the Speaker key, and then press a number on the keypad assigned to the desired Speed Dial listing. • Press the REDIAL soft key to display previous calls made. Use the < or > soft keys to scroll through the list. When the desired number is displayed, press the OK soft key. Adjusting the Volume The < VOL > soft key lowers or raises the audio volume of the sound device being used for the active call (headset, handset, or speaker). There are five volume levels. After adjusting the volume, press the OK or ESC soft key. 3-1 Using the Mute Soft Key Pressing the MUTE soft key mutes the handset, speaker, or headset. You can still hear the incoming caller, but the caller cannot hear you until the UNMUTE soft key (which has replaced the MUTE soft key on the display) is pressed. Ending a Call To end a call, press the Menu key, Speaker key, Int key, or the lit Line key. Placing the handset on the stand also ends a call, however placing a handset that is utilizing the speakerphone on a stand does not end the call. Receiving a Call Note: Pressing RINGOFF stops the audible ring until a new call is received. To answer an incoming call when the handset is in the idle state, press the corresponding Line key, the Speaker key, or remove the handset from the charger. If there is only one incoming call and the calling name and number information is available, the L1 Ringing Bob Jones telephone displays which line is ringing, the 512-555-1234 calling name, and the calling number. The RINGOFF RINGOFF soft key is available. Handset 2 Vanessa RINGOFF Internal incoming calls display the handset number and the handset name, if one has been assigned. The RINGOFF soft key is available. Ring tones and LED indication are always provided unless you are editing the ring volume or tone, the ringer is turned off, or Room Monitoring is enabled. Calls may ring differently for external and internal calls (depending on local Ringer Settings). Each line can have its own ring volume and pitch. During Menu Activity If an external call arrives while you are accessing an Offline Main Menu item, the handset exits to the “idle screen” and begins normal call processing as defined for that handset. This is also true during composed dialing. 3-2 Home RF User Guide If an external call arrives while you are accessing an Online Main Menu item, the call pending tone is sounded and you remain in the Online Menu. If an external call arrives while the handset is displaying a data entry screen, the device remains at that data entry screen. You can: • Continue data entry to completion, press OK, exit the menu, and answer the call, or • Abandon data entry by: • Pressing the ESC soft key to exit the current menu • Pressing the Menu hard key to escape up one level holding it for 1 second to return to the idle state • Pressing the incoming external Line Key or Int Key (speaker key?) and answering the call, or • Ignore the call and continue with data entry. Incoming calls do not interrupt the PC services Mode. However, if you press a Line or Speaker key, the VDM aborts PC services and answers the call. The VDM also aborts PC services if you press a Line or Speaker key to make an outgoing call. Unanswered calls continue to ring until the calling end disconnects. Incoming Calls with an Active Call on the Line Note: Incoming calls are answered via the audio path (handset, speaker, or headset) currently being used for the active call. If a handset is active on a call on L1 and another call comes in on L2, the display shows which line is ringing, the calling name, and the calling number. Theand MUTE soft keys are available for the active call. L1 Ringing Bob Jones 512-555-1234 < VOL > MUTE Pressing L2 puts the L1 call on Hold. You are then connected to the incoming call on L2. You can toggle between the two external lines by alternately pressing the two Line keys. Handset 2 Vanessa < VOL > MUTE If a handset is active on a call on L1 and an internal call comes in from handset 2, the display shows “Handset 2” and the name of the handset if one has been assigned. The and MUTE soft keys are available for the active call. Pressing the Int key puts L1 on Hold and connects you to the incoming internal call. To end the internal call, press the Int key again or press the L1 key to 3-3 return to the L1 call. You cannot toggle between Internal calls and External calls by alternately pressing a Line key and the Int key. Multiple Incoming Calls Note: The scrolling does not roll over. For example, if you are viewing the first call, pressing the up soft key does not change the display. When there are incoming calls on two lines, the last received call is displayed first. If no caller L1: 512-555-1234 L2: Bert Smith ID name was provided, the caller ID number is used. If neither caller ID name nor number is RINGOFF provided, only the Line number is shown. Press the corresponding line number to answer the desired call. When there are incoming calls on three lines, the last received call is displayed on line 1, the L1: 512-555-1234 L2: Bert Smith second call on line 2, and the first (oldest) call on Vanessa line 3.If there are more than three calls, pressing RINGOFF the down and up soft keys shows the next and previous calls, respectively. Using the Int Key From an idle state, press the Int hard key to display a list of registered handsets. Use the < or > soft keys to scroll through the list and then press the number of the desired target handset on the keypad (1-8). Press either the * hard key or the ALL soft key, to poll all handsets. The call is connected to the first handset that picks up. The display shows “No Handsets Available” or “Intercom X Busy” if the call is not answered. Press the ESC soft key, Int hard key, or the Menu hard key to return to the idle state. If you are setting up a conference call and press any of these keys you are reconnected to the party on Hold. If you are on an Internal Call and receive and incoming external call, answering the external call disconnects the internal call. You cannot toggle between Internal calls and External calls by alternately pressing a Line key and the Int key. 3-4 Home RF User Guide Auto Answering Note: The right soft key displays the opposite of the current setting. Clicking the ON soft key when the menu item shows “Auto Answer off” changes the menu item to show “Auto Answer ON” and the soft key text changes to off. Set auto answering by pressing Menu | System Settings | Auto Answer on/off. The default is off. This is a global toggle. When it is set to on, you can use the Int hard key like a true Intercom. When ON, users can simply answer the person calling them on the Intercom without having to pickup the Handset. The caller will be heard over the speakerphone and the person being called can simply speak back at the caller with no need for either to have their Handset to their ear. With Auto Answer ON: 1 Press the Int key. 2 Select a registered handset from the list. 3 Start talking. 4 A tone sounds on the speaker of the receiving handset to alert the user of the intercom call. The user on the receiving end can just start talking. Transferring a Call You can transfer external calls from one handset to another. External calls cannot be transferred to an external line. Intercom calls cannot be transferred. There are two types of transfers, blind or announced. Blind Transfer Private Hold: No other handsets can pick up this call. To transfer a call: 1 Press the Menu hard key, then select Transfer. The active call is put on Private Hold. 2 Press the corresponding hard key (1-8) from the registered headset list, or press * or ALL to transfer the call to the first handset that picks up. • If the target is not busy, the initiating handset transitions to Idle and the target device processes the transfer as an incoming call. Only the target device has access to the calls transferred to it. • If the target handset is busy, you are returned to the Active Call state. 3-5 • If the target device is not busy, but does not pick up within 30 seconds, the handset that initiated the transfer receives the call back as a regular incoming call. If that handset is busy on another internal call, then the call will keep ringing on the transferred to handset until it is answered or far end disconnected. Call Barge-In is “Prohibited” when a call is in the process of being Transferred. A call is in the process of being Transferred when this screen is showing and up until that point in time when the target device picks up. Calls can be transferred to handsets that wouldn't ordinarily have access to a particular External Line. Example: Handset 3 does not have access to External Line 1 because the user set the L1 incoming and outgoing calls to off through the System Settings menu. Handset 1 can transfer a call on Line 1 to Handset 3. Announced Transfer An announced transfer occurs when the handset establishes a Conference Call with another handset and then hangs up the call.The external line is then active on the destination handset. Conference Calling This option enables you to set up a 3-way Conference. A Conference can be set up in one of the two following ways: Note: Conferences cannot be set up between three or more handset users via Int. • Between two handset users (via Int) and one external line. • Between one handset user and calls on two external lines. Conferences must be started from an external active call. While active on an external call, press Menu | Conference Calling. The VDM supports up to two simultaneous conferences throughout the system. Only Call in the System Protected Hold: Other handsets cannot pick up the call. 3-6 If there is only one call in the system, pressing Menu | Conference puts the call on protected hold and displays the Make a New Call screen. Home RF User Guide Make a New Call Then press CONF DIR LOG MSG RDL Adding a New Call After you select Menu | Conference, or Menu | Conference | Add A New Call you can make a new call via any normal method of making a call. (See “Making a Call.”) If an incoming call is received before the CONF soft key is pressed, the caller ID for the new call overwrites the conference display. If you answer the call, the VDM treats the new call as the second call in the conference and displays the CONF soft key. L1 1:33 Bob Jones 512-555-1234 CANCEL CONF When the line is seized for this second call for the Conference, the screen displays the Active Call Screen, except the and MUTE soft keys are replaced by the CANCEL and CONF soft keys. Press the CANCEL soft key to cancel the Conference, disconnect the second call, and remove the Protected Hold status of the first call leaving it on regular hold (which means any Handset can now pick it up). Press CONF to complete the conference. The Conference initiating Handset has a connection with both the call that had been put on Protected Hold and the second call that was just made. All three parties can hear and speak with each other. See “Active Conference.” More Than One Call Active in the System Protected Hold: Other handsets cannot pick up the call. When the OnLine Main Menu | Conference selection is made, the previously active external call is put on Protected Hold. With other active calls in the system, you can add a new call to the Conference or add one of the other external calls (that are either ringing or have been placed on normal Hold). Add a new call Add L1: Bob Jones Add L2: Cindy Smith < > Esc OK • Press ESC (or the Menu key) to cancel the Conference setup process and reconnect to the external call that was active when the OnLine Main Menu was first requested by the user. • Press OK to add a new call to the conference. See “Adding a New Call.” • Scroll to an available line and press OK to add an external call. You now have a connection with both the call that had been put on Protected Hold and the second call that was just selected. All three parties can hear and speak with each other. 3-7 Active Conference If you press a Line key other than the one on Protected Hold or the new call, the phone puts both calls on hold, winks their LEDs, and aborts the conference procedure. The phone becomes active on the external line last touched. If you press the original call Line key (the one on Protected Hold) while dialing the new call, the new call is put on normal hold, and the original call is retrieved. The conference procedure is aborted. Line 1 of the Active Conference Screen shows “Conference” and the length of time (mm:ss) the oldest external call was active before the Conference option was selected. Conference 1:33 L2: Bob Jones Vanessa < VOL > MUTE Lines 2 and 3 show which two connections this handset is connected to. This could be one external line and one internal Intercom connection (shown) OR two external lines. Line 4 shows the normal Active Call soft keys. If there is no CID info, Phone Dir info, or Handset Name available, all that is displayed is the appropriate L1, L2, L3, L4, or Handset number. Ending a Conference Call Any internal Conference participant at any time can exit a Conference. The handset that set up the Conference has no higher priority than any other internal Conference participant. Press the Menu hard key during an Active Conference Screen to display a menu of Conference exit options: •Drop Ln: “CID or Phone Dir info” Drop L1: Bob Jones Drop Vanessa Drop All < > Esc OK •Drop Ln: “CID or Phone Dir info” OR “Drop Handset 1" OR Drop “Handset Name” •Drop All • Leave Conference (Not Available if Conference has 2 External Participants) • Hold (Not Available if Conference has 2 Internal Participants) Menu Option 1 The first Menu option is always an option to drop an external line from the Conference. When an external line is dropped from the Conference, the remaining two participants remain in an active connection. 3-8 Home RF User Guide Menu Option 2 The second option depends on whether the Conference has two internal participants or two external participants. If there are two internal participants, the second option shows the Handset # or the Handset Name (if provided) of the other internal participant. If there are two external participants, the second option shows the second external line # and the CID (or Phone Dir) information for that second participant. When this line, whether internal or external, is dropped from the Conference, the remaining two participants remain in an active connection. Drop All The third option is always Drop All. When Drop All is selected, all connections are broken and the handset returns to the Idle state. Any internal participant can select this option at anytime to end the Conference. Leave Conference Note: Leave Conference is not available if the Conference has two external participants. If the Conference has two internal participants, the fourth option is Leave Conference. When Leave Conference is available and selected, the handset that selects it leaves the Conference, returns to the Idle state, and the remaining single internal and single external participants remain in an active connection. Hold If the Conference has two external participants, the fourth option is Hold. When Hold is available and selected, the handset that selects it leaves the Conference, returns to the Idle state, and the remaining two external participants are left on “Conference Hold”. When this occurs, both external line keys “wink” on all handsets, which means that the user of any handset can press either key and retrieve the Conference. Pressing either of the Line keys re-establishes the entire Conference. 3-9 Exiting a Conference via Line Keys and Hang Up There is no priority set as to which internal handset can initiate exiting or hanging-up a Conference. Any internal Conference participant at any time can exit a Conference. The handset that set up the Conference has no higher priority than any other internal Conference participant. Pressing a Line key (or Int key) for one of the Conference's active connections hangs up that Conference participant, terminates the 3-way Conference, and leaves the remaining two participants on an active connection. If the Conference has two internal participants: • Pressing the Int key disconnects the other internal participant, leaving an active connection between this handset and the external line. • Pressing the participating external Line key disconnects the external line and leaves an active Intercom connection between the two internal participants. • Pressing any of the Line keys that are not part of the Conference disconnects this handset from the Conference (leaving an active connection between the other internal participant and the external line) and enables the user to place a call on the line selected. • Placing the handset on-stand disconnect this handset from the Conference, leaving an active connection between the other internal participant and the external line. If the Conference has two external participants: • Pressing either of the participating external Line keys disconnects that external line and leaves an active connection between this handset and the remaining external line. • Pressing any of the Line keys (or Int key) that are not part of the Conference disconnects this handset from the Conference (leaving the two external participants on Conference Hold) and enables the user to place a call on the line selected. • Placing the handset on-stand disconnects the entire Conference. All participants are disconnected. Far-end Conference participants on external lines can hang up themselves, but they cannot break the link between two internal handsets or between one internal handset and a different far-end participant. 3-10 Home RF User Guide Automatic 3-way Conference If the Line Privacy feature is turned off, conference calls can be set up by a handset joining an active call. Simply press the Line key for the external line. The participants on the original 2-way call hear a double beep and their handset displays “Conference” plus the identity or the other two calls on the line. Conference 1:33 L2: Bob Jones Vanessa < VOL > MUTE Placing an External Call on Hold Note: Internal calls cannot be put on Hold. When selected, this option puts an active external call on Hold, sets the appropriate external Line key to wink, and the user is returned to the Idle state. The winking Line key is the only visual indicator that there is a call on Hold. This option functions exactly the same as when the user is on an active external call and simply presses another external Line key (or the Int key). Pressing another Line key when you are on an active external call places the active call on Hold and enables, for example, answering another ringing line, initiating another call, calling another handset (via Intercom), etc. A call on normal Hold (no Conference or Privacy issues) can be picked up from any handset. A call can be put on Protected Hold by selecting Conference from the Online Main Menu. Only the handset that initiated the Conference can reactivate the call that was put on Protected Hold. A call on an external “Private” line will also be put on Protected Hold. Only the handset that was on an active call on a “Private” line and initiated the Hold can pick up the call on Protected Hold. When a Line is on Hold, the LED for that line winks. If the line is on Protected Hold, the LED winks on the Private Handset, but stays active on all other handsets. 3-11 Privacy Feature There is a system setting for Line Privacy. This option is configurable for each available external line. If privacy is enabled for a particular external line, calls associated with that line are Protected. Other Handsets may not Barge-In on calls Active on that line. When being put on Hold, Active and Conference calls are put on Protected Hold and Protected Conference Hold (if applicable). Other Handsets may not pick up calls on Protected Hold or Protected Conference Hold; only the associated Handset may do so. If a call on Handset X (that originally came in on a Private line) is transferred to another Handset Y that does have access to that Private line, the call is still Protected and other Handsets can not Barge-In or Pick-up (if the call is later put on Protected Hold). Other Handsets will be prevented from joining/getting calls that are already in progress on that Line. If a call on Handset X (that originally came in on a Private line) is transferred to another Handset Y that does NOT have access to that Private line, that call is no longer Protected, and other Handsets may Barge-In or Pick-up (if the call is later put on Hold). 3-12 Home RF User Guide CHAPTER PROGRAMMING FEATURES CHAPTER0 Phone Directory Note: Multiple handsets can access the Directory simultaneously.
