station provides the following keys, indicators and
features:
Handset and Speaker are located at the left side of
the front panel. A handset is provided to allow con-
fidential conversation when desired. Lifting the

portion of the handset. The station may be operated
with the handset on-hook. When this occurs, audio
is transmitted to the station user through the station’s
speaker.
The Starplus Basic key station does not have speak-
erphone or Handsfree intercom capability.
Outside Calls are announced by a tone signal re-
peated every 3.2 seconds. The corresponding out-
side line indicator will flash slowly.

nounced. If it is voice announced, the receiving

ing station will hear a tone ring every 2.4 seconds.
