Using the Programmable Keys / Line Keys
There are eight Programmable Keys on the Standard Keystation, 16 on the Executive
Keystation and 32 on the Console. The keys on the Keystations are pre-programmed as
Line
Keys
. Each Line Key is associated with a ‘Line’, the first key with Line 1 etc., (provided the
system has lines equipped). Pressing Line Key 1 selects Line 1, returning a dial tone and
allowing you to dial an external telephone number. The Line Keys incorporate a light, which is
lit on all Keystations when the associated Line is selected. The light is green on the Keystation
using the Line and red on all other Keystations. When a call on a line is put on hold the
associated Line Key light flashes on all Keystations, (unless the system programming is
changed from the default as detailed on page 99).
By default, Programmable Keys select available lines on the system, should you wish to
allocate alternative functions to these keys this can be facilitated using Key Programming.
(See page 46).
Using the Hands-free Key
You can use the Hands-free Key to have a conversation without having to lift the Handset.
Press the Hands-free Key to go off-hook, as if the Handset were lifted with the Keystation
speaker and microphone replacing the Handset. Pressing the key again goes back on-hook, as
if the Handset were replaced.
You may also use the Keystation with a headset.
The Hands-free key has a red light, which is lit whenever the Hands-free Key has been
pressed to go off-hook or to turn on the speaker.
Note:
Pressing the Hands-free Key at any time during programming exits the programming
menus and returns the 'Display' to the Idle Menu.
Using the Volume Key:
•
To adjust the speaker volume, press the Volume
Key when in Hands-free Mode. When
the level is set, the volume is retained for future calls or until readjusted. There is also
an option in Ovida to allow the volume to return to the default setting (level 5) after
each call. This setting is independent of the volume settings for handset mode
•
To adjust the Keystation receiver volume, press the
Volume
Key when in Handset
Mode. When the level is set, the volume is retained for future calls or until readjusted.
There is also an option in Ovida to allow the volume to return to the default setting
(level 5) after each call. This setting is independent of the volume settings for hands-
free mode
•
To adjust the ringing volume, press the Volume Key when the Keystation is ringing
Note:
The Volume level increases/decreases by one step for every press of the Volume Key.
Using the Mute Key
The Mute Key can be pressed when you are using the Handset or in Hands-free Mode. When
pressed, the other person on the call cannot hear you. The Mute Key has a red light, which is
lit when Mute is active.
The Ringing / Message Waiting Light:
There is a red light on the top right-hand corner of the Keystation. This light flashes when
there is an incoming call. It also lights up when a voice message has been left in your
Voicemail box.
