Tables 40 and 41 list the station and peripheral capacities and station features.
Note Not all features for digital telephones are available on the digital cordless phones.
Account Code Button
This button, enables digital telephone users to enter Voluntary Account Codes (verified or
nonverified), during conversations without interrupting the talk path. It can also be used to enter
Verified Account Codes to allow normally restricted stations to dial long distance calls.
Add-on Module (DADM)
One to two DADMs can be attached to a DKT2000-series digital telephone to provide an
additional 20 or 40 buttons (see “Digital Add-on Module (DADM)” on Page 57). DADM buttons
can be programmed for outside line access, System or Personal Speed Dial, or Direct Station
Selection (Appendix – General Specifications – Table 49 on Page 128).
Alert Signal Button
This feature enables a digital or electronic telephone user to signal a predesignated station. When
the
$OHUW6LJQDO button is pressed, a distinct tone signal is sent to the dedicated station. This
signal can be used to alert someone about a pre-arranged event or action—No talk path will exist
between the called and calling telephones.
An alert signal can be sent to telephones that are idle, or Busy, Call Forward, and/or Do Not
Disturb mode. Each station that has this feature can send/receive the alert signal to/from the other
station in the alerting pair. Up to four unique
$OHUW6LJQDObuttons can be on a station.
Automatic Busy Redial (ABR)
Digital and electronic telephone users who dial a busy outside telephone number can set ABR,
which automatically redials the number at preprogrammed intervals. Busy tone must consist of
standard tones. The system will call back the station when it rings the number. ABR is compatible
with LCR and ISDN, but is not compatible with outgoing DID or Tie line calls. ABR requires the
QRCU3 on DK14 and K5RCU option PCB for the DK40i; it is standard on the DK424i.
