Introduction
You can use the administrator phone for several simple system administrative tasks. You may
notice some feature differences between the phone types, as described below. Use a Mitel
5340, 8662, 8660, 8568, or 8560 phone to administer the system.
Phone Feature Button Differences
Table 2 describes differences between the Mitel 5340, 8662, 8660, 8568, and 8560 phones
when using feature buttons to enter dialpad characters or activate features. For ease of use,
this guide refers to buttons in procedures by name instead of the icon designation. For example,
a procedure may refer to the Backspace button, which can be either the (Mute) button
(models 8662, 8660, and 8560) or the (Hold) button (models 5340 and 8568). Refer to
the appropriate phone user guide for detailed phone feature descriptions.
Dialpad Character Descriptions
Table 3 shows dialpad character descriptions. When entering dialpad characters:
• To switch from Alpha Mode to Numeric Mode, press the Message button (button
designation depends on phone type) or the USE ALPHA MODE/USE NUMERIC MODE
menu button. The Message button and lamp button are lit in Alpha Mode. They are off in
Numeric Mode.
• In Numeric Mode, you can press # for a hyphen (-) or or
*
for a colon (:).
