Overview

This document serves as a basic user guide for NEC DECT G566 and i766 handsets, specifically designed for use with NEC iSIP systems. It outlines the functionalities and operational procedures for various call handling and system features.

Device Function Description

The NEC DECT G566 and i766 handsets are designed to integrate with NEC Telecommunication servers, offering a range of communication features. The iSIP integration allows these handsets to utilize four line keys (function keys), mirroring the functionality of line keys found on NEC keyphones. This integration is crucial for advanced call management within the NEC system.

Important Usage Features

Line Keys and "Park-Orbit" Functionality: A key recommendation for these handsets is to program the first line key as a "Park-Orbit" key. This is achieved by dialing *04 followed by a unique Park orbit number. This feature is vital for retrieving transferred calls where the target extension does not answer, preventing lost calls.

Mute Function: During an active call, the G566 handset uses its SOS button as a "Mute" key, while the i766 handset uses its Keyboard Lock Key for the same purpose.

Call Handling:

  • Answering a Call: When the handset rings, the display shows "CALL FROM" along with the caller's name/number. Pressing the green button answers the call, and the display changes to "TALKING TO" with the caller's details. Calls are ended by pressing the red button.
  • Initiating an Internal Call: Internal calls connect to other extensions within the NEC Telephone System without using external trunk lines. The system supports two methods:
    • Signaling: The target extension rings until lifted.
    • Voice Call: A short tone is heard at the target, allowing direct hands-free reply. To initiate, press the green button, dial the internal extension number, and the display shows "CALLING" with the target's name/number.
  • External Outgoing Calls: Multiple methods are available for external calls:
    • Dialing the common trunk access code (9).
    • Dialing a specific code (805 + Line port number) for a specific line.
    • Dialing a specific code (804 + Line group number) for a specific line group.
    • Pressing a pre-programmed Line key (2, 3, or 4).
    • Automatic trunk access by pressing the green button (if configured). After dialing, the display shows the line name and dialed digits, and an external dial tone is heard.
  • Last Number Dial (LND): The system stores the last dialed number centrally.
    • Redial: Press the green button, dial service code 816, and the last dialed number is shown and redialed.
    • Delete LND Memory: Press the green button, dial service code 876, and the display shows "CLEAR REDIAL" with a confirmation tone.
  • Hold/Enquiry Call: This feature allows placing an existing call on hold to make another call (enquiry) to an internal extension or external number.
    • Internal Enquiry: During a call, press the Park key (which blinks), dial the internal extension number, conduct the enquiry, and then press the Park key again to resume the original call.
    • External Enquiry: During a call, press the Park key (which blinks), dial 9 (trunk access) plus the external number, conduct the enquiry, and then press the Park key again to resume the original call. The external party can be disconnected by pressing the red button.
  • Transfer: Calls can be transferred with or without announcement.
    • Screened Transfer: During a call, press the Park key (which blinks), dial the target extension, wait for an answer, announce the transfer, and then press the "Transfer" softkey.
    • Unscreened Transfer: During a call, press the Park key (which blinks), dial the target extension, and then press the "Transfer" softkey. If the target doesn't answer, a ringback is received.
  • DSS-Key (Direct Station Selection): DSS-Keys provide Busy Lamp Field (BLF) functionality and one-button access to extensions. An LED indicates the extension's status (off for idle, steady on for busy, blinking for features like Call Forward or DND). DSS-Keys can also be programmed for external numbers or service codes, though without status indication.

    • Dialing: Press the green button, dial service code 761, then the bin number.
    • Storing: Press the green button, dial service code 855, then the bin number, enter the number to be stored (prefix 9 for external numbers), and optionally assign a name using the "Hold" softkey.
