Telephone Operating Instructions
There are three ways to originate a call with a digital or Type 3100 telephone: manual line
selection, automatic line selection, and preselection. Programming determines how each
telephone functions and which method to use to originate a call. With single-line
telephones, line selection is always automatic.
To manually select a line to make a call:
❖ Lift the handset.
❖ Press an extension, trunk route, or direct-in line button.
❖ You hear dial tone, and the selected button's indicator changes to ACTIVE.
To automatically select a line to make a call:
❖ Lift the handset.
❖ You hear dial tone, and the automatically selected button's indicator changes to
ACTIVE.
To preselect a line to make a call:
❖ Press an idle extension, trunk route, or direct-in line button.
❖ Lift the handset.
❖ You hear dial tone, and the selected button's indicator changes to ACTIVE.
When an incoming call rings your telephone, the associated button indicator changes to
CALLING. Three methods are available for answering a call: manual call pickup,
automatic call pickup, and preselection. Again, programming determines how each
telephone functions and which method to use to answer a call. With a single-line
telephone, only automatic call pickup is available.
To answer a call on a line programmed for manual pickup:
❖ Lift the handset.
❖ Press the button next to the indicator indicating CALLING. The indicator changes
to ACTIVE.
❖ You are connected with the caller.
To answer a call on a line programmed for automatic pickup:
❖ Lift the handset.
❖ The calling button indicator changes to ACTIVE. You are automatically connected
with the caller.
