The SHIFT Button
All 8434 voice terminals have a blue SHIFT button. Some 8434DX voice terminals
have a blue SHIFT button; others have a RING button. (See the description
below.) The SHIFT button can be used in two different ways: (The red light next to
the SHIFT button goes on steadily when the button is activated.)
■ Used with the HOLD button to select your own personalized ringing
patterns from among eight available patterns
■ Used with the SPEAKER button to perform an acoustic test of the
environment and adjust the speakerphone to the surrounding acoustic
environment for optimal performance
The RING Button
On other 8434DX voice terminals, the user can press the RING button in order to
select a personalized ringing pattern for the voice terminal. There are eight ringing
patterns from which to choose.
Call Appearance/Feature Buttons
The 8434 and 8434DX voice terminals have 34 call appearance/feature buttons,
each equipped with a red light and a green status light. Usually, at least three of
these buttons are administered as call appearances for the terminal’s primary
extension number, where calls are placed and answered. The rest 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 voice terminal user.
The light goes off when the user retrieves the message or when the message is
erased. This light is labeled either
Message
or .
