■ To use a system feature, press # (in place of f used on system
phones) followed by its two-digit code when you hear intercom dial tone.
For features that use
i on system phones, dial only the two-digit
code when you hear intercom dial tone. (Instructions for using these
features on standard phones are included in Chapter 5, ‘‘Feature
Reference’’.)
■ To use a Speed Dial number, press # followed by its two- or three-digit
code when you hear intercom dial tone. (For details, see "Personal Speed
Dial Numbers" and "System Speed Dial Numbers".)
■ If Call Waiting (#316) is assigned to an extension with a standard phone
connected, users hear a call-waiting tone (two beeps) when a second call
comes in to the extension. The call-waiting tone is not repeated.
■ Use the switchhook on a standard phone to place calls on hold, park a call,
transfer a call, answer a call-waiting call, or set up a conference call. (For
details, see ‘‘Using the Switchhook’’ on page 3-10, or "Hold", "Transferring
Calls", ‘‘Answering Calls’’ and ‘‘Conference Calls’’ in Chapter 5.)
■ If the standard phone has a message light, use it to notify users of
messages. (For details, see "Message Light On (F09XX)" and "Message
Light Off (F10XX)". For a list of supported phones, see ‘‘Standard
Telephones’’ on page 1-16.) Alternatively, if you have a voice messaging
system, the light is used to indicate that a message has been left in your
mailbox. On a standard phone, the message light flashes
when the phone
is idle
to indicate that the extension has received a message.
Ringing Patterns
Standard phones have these ringing patterns:
■ An outside call will
ring... ring... ring.
■ An intercom call will
ring-ring... ring-ring... ring-ring
.
■ A transferred call, or an unanswered transferred or parked call that is
ringing back, will
ring-ring-ring... ring-ring-ring... ring-ring-ring.
NOTE:
If you use the system with PBX or Centrex lines, the PBX/Centrex distinctive
ringing patterns are not passed to phones. Telephones use the ringing
patterns described here instead.

Outside dial tone
