mined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:

• Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver

from that to which the receiver is connected.

Index
System to System Network
The system that your IP speakerphone works into can be either a local
stand-alone system or part of a system-to-system network. System-
to-system networking connects several systems together in an
arrangement that allows unified communications throughout the
network. Depending upon the networked system to which your IP
speakerphone contacts (either the host system or one of the node
systems) feature set capability differs. For a complete list of features
and their properties see Appendix E, Feature Networking Support.
Contact your installer to determine whether your system connection
is to a hub or a node system.
Note: Throughout this book, al references to fixed buttons (keypad, DSS/
BLF, SPEAKER, HOLD, etc....) are printed in upper case, italic type; for
example, PRESS INTERCOM.”
Al references to interactive buttons (which are used to make selections on the
speakerphone display) are printed in upper case, bold italic type; for example
“SELECT OPTIONS.”
Also, to eliminate confusion, the text of this guide instructs users to
“PRESS” fixed buttons of the telephone and “SELECT” interactive buttons
as in the examples above. Instructions to “DIAL” refer to numbers or sym-
bols on the keypad.
