About this Guide Icons and Conventions This manual uses the following icons and conventions. Caution! Follow these instructions carefully to avoid danger. Note these instructions carefully. Label PN: 1725-36132-001_E.doc This typeface indicates a key, label, or button on SpectraLink hardware.
1 Plan the Interface The system administrator programs the telephone system for use with the Wireless Telephone System using the normal administration terminal or procedures. Programming can be done after the handsets are registered. Recommended programming includes assigning extension numbers to the handsets and programming features on the telephone system so they are easily accessible from the handsets. For analog interfaces, macro codes are in the document relating to configuring the system.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Comdial DXP/DX/FX System “model” handsets and then use the model as a template to program the other handsets. • All handsets are different: All handsets are programmed differently, so each handset will be programmed individually. Before installation, review the requirements and parameters of the wired telephones to plan the settings required for the handsets. Toll restrictions These determine which sets are allowed to make outside calls, and which should be restricted.
Plan the Interface The Wireless Telephone Display The SpectraLink Wireless Telephone will display the telephone number as it is dialed. Certain characters may be used by the system that are not implemented in the handset. Flashing characters are not implemented on the handset, nor is rolling or scrolling of text. Although some desksets do not have a display, any display information sent by the system will be displayed on the handset. Handset indicators Line indicators are associated with line access keys.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Comdial DXP/DX/FX System Feature Programming Requirements When planning the interface, the following information must be taken into account: Line sequences The handset uses two types of key sequences to access PBX features and multiple lines. Line sequences are those where the user presses the LINE key and then a number key. The key-map design designates “line” keys that should be programmed for line appearance so that they correspond to line sequences on the handset.
Plan the Interface the handset menu displays, allowing the first press of the FCN key to access softkey functions. See SpectraLink 6000 System, SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Operator’s Console for further procedural information. Another option may be to disable the softkey menu at the system level and exclusively use the SpectraLink menu. This would remove any unwanted interaction, but might restrict the number of available features to the number of programmable keys on the handset.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Comdial DXP/DX/FX System Voicemail The message-waiting icon on the handset is activated with the message indication of the deskset. The voicemail feature on the deskset must be assigned to the feature key as shown in the key-map diagrams. Do not assign any other feature to this key, since the associated LED is directly mapped to the message-waiting icon on the handset. This LED assignment must be used in order to support the message-waiting icon.
2 Interface Implementation This section describes the recommended programming in order to use the SpectraLink Wireless Telephone System or SpectraLink 8000 System components with a Comdial Digital Telephone System. The procedures assume the following: • The Comdial system is installed and operational in an approved configuration. See the Telephone Switch Interface Matrix document for tested configurations. • A trained Comdial technician will be on site with the Installer to program the system.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Comdial DXP/DX/FX System SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateways Connect to the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway using the serial or modem interface. From the Main Menu, choose Gateway Configuration. Scroll to Telephone Switch Type and press enter to change this field. From the Submenu of PBX types, select Comdial. Refer to the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway: Administration Guide for SRP for details on configuring the Telephone Switch Type.
Interface Implementation The FCN [number] and LINE [number] labels represent the key sequence on the handset mapped to the corresponding key on the desk set. The SHIFT button + LINE button on the deskset is used to produce various features. These are accessed on the handset by using the FCN key plus the number key as shown above. The handset function menu default settings are shown below; these may be changed as described above in Function Menu Programming.
LinkPlus Interface Guide: Comdial DXP/DX/FX System Station features for handset Program the following features for the handsets: • Prime Line: Selects the line that users get when they go off-hook. To give users an inside dial tone when they go off-hook, assign Intercom as Prime Line. • Ringing Line Preference: Controls the way a station answers a ringing line. To assign outside lines to display at all handsets, but not ring at all handsets, Disable Direct Ring.
