Call Appearance/Feature Buttons
Both 6408 telephones have eight call appearance/feature buttons, each equipped
with a red and a green light. Usually, at least two of these buttons are
administered as call appearances for the telephone’s primary extension number,
where calls are placed and answered. The remainder of the buttons can be used
for more call appearances (including bridged appearances of other stations’
extensions) and features. Buttons administered for features have only their green
status lights active.
Message Light
The red Message light goes on when a message is left for the user. It goes off
when the user retrieves the message or when the message is erased.
VOLUME Control button
The 6408 telephones have a VOLUME “arrow” button on the front of the set. This
button has several functions. When the user is using the speakerphone or the
1-way speaker, the VOLUME button controls the volume of the speaker. When the
user is on a call using the handset, the VOLUME button controls the handset
volume. When the telephone is idle, the button controls the volume of the tone
ringer.
When the user sets the volume for the speaker, speakerphone, handset, or the
tone ringer, the display on the 6408D+ telephones shows a “bar array” that
indicates the volume setting.
Display
The display on the 6408D+ has two lines with 24 characters on each line. The
display, along with the softkeys and the display control buttons, can be used to
access 12 softkey features (the default softkey features and the alternative softkey
features are listed under “Softkeys”).
Display Control Buttons
These four buttons are labeled Menu, Exit, Prev, and Next.
■ The Menu button is used to enter Softkey Mode and access the 12 softkey
features.
■ The Exit button is used for exiting a display feature and returning to Normal
(call-handling) Mode.
■ The Prev and Next buttons can be used to go back and forth through the
feature option screens.
Softkeys
The four buttons located below the display and labeled with arrows correspond to
features listed on the second line of the display screen. (There are four features
on each feature option screen.) The user can access any of the 12 features by
pressing the softkey below the feature abbreviation.
