Setting up the Telephone
Mounting of the Telephone as Wall Unit
Open the telephone by loosening the four cover screws (12) and mount the bottom (1) on
the wall or other back support with three screws (see System Overview). Use screws
(5) with a head diameter of 6 to 8 mm (do not use screws with an external hexagon head).
The back surface must be such that the telephone lies flat against it with its three feet.
Connect the telephone according to the connection diagram. Only cables with a
diameter in the range of 5 to 9 mm should be used. Otherwise the IP protection degree
will not be achieved. When all connections have been made, mount the lid (2) on
base (1) with the four screws (12).

Setting up the Telephone on a Desktop
Open the telephone by loosening the four cover screws (12). Connect the telephone
according to the connection diagram. Only cables with a diameter in the range of 5 to
9 mm should be used. Otherwise the IP protection degree will not be achieved. Now
turn lid (2) 180° and mount on base (1) with the four screws (12). It is recommended
to remove latching hook by unscrewing screw (7). The four self adhesive rubber feet (8)
should be placed in the corresponding recesses in the base.
Connecting to the Ringer Indicator Relay Terminals
The FernTel EURO-ISDN comprises a Ringer Indicator Relay which is activated by an
incoming call. If the relay contacts shall be used to control signalling devices, replace
the plug (10) with a cable gland M 20 x 1.5 IP 66. Please note that the cable diameter
must comply with the corresponding dimensions of the cable gland, otherwise the
IP protection degree will not be achieved. The cable has to be connected to the ringer
indicator relay contacts via terminals REL
1
and REL
2
. When all connections have been
made mount lid (2) on base (1) with the four srews (12).
Function of the Ringer Indicator Relay
The telephone comprises a ringer indicator relay, which is activated when an incoming
call is received. Additional signalling devices, e.g. hooters and signalling lights, can thus
be actuated.
Two modes of operation of the connecting relay can be set with switch 1 on the circuit
board inside the telephone:
switch on the relay is switched on continuously
as long as the telephone rings
or
switch off the relay is switched on and off once per second
as long as the telephone rings.
Which mode is best depends on the signalling devices that are to be actuated.
Note: The ringer indicator relay does not work during emergency operation !

Terminating Resistors
The end of an ISDN-S/T-Line has to be terminated with 100 ohm resistors.
If your telephone is located at the line end the terminating resistors can be connected
to the S/T bus terminals according to the connection diagram. Mating resistors are
delivered with the telephone.
Maximum Length of Connection Line
The maximum line length basically depends on the cable being used and the configuration
at the ISDN-S/T line.
The ISDN-S/T line is a so-called bus connection, i.e. several ISDN devices can be
connected to it at the same time.
A distinction is drawn between a short passive bus, in which all devices are connected
to the bus in approximately equal spacing, a long passive bus, in which all devices are
connected at the end of the bus, and a point-to-point connection, in which only your
telephone is connected to the ISDN-S/T line. Depending on the capacity of the cable,
the following ranges are achieved:
Cable capacity Range in m Range in m Range in m
in nF/km short long point-to-point
passive bus passive bus connection
30 220 900 1100
40 200 750 1000
50 180 690 920
60 165 615 820

Overview
In purchasing the FernTel EURO-ISDN, you have acquired an ISDN telephone which
provides you with easy access to the services of your digital telephone network.
The following text fully details the features of the FernTel EURO-ISDN. However before
you start, please note the following information. The FernTel EURO-ISDN was designed
for connection to a Euro-ISDN (ISDN with DSS 1 protocol) multi-terminal connection.
A Euro-ISDN multi-terminal connection has two voice/data channels which can both be
used simultaneously for making calls; furthermore the connection is assigned several,
usually three, telephone numbers (Multiple Subscriber Numbers, MSNs).
Your FernTel EURO-ISDN does not come programmed for your connection; therefore
it does not know for which MSN it should ring*. Before making any calls, you should
first enter a few settings, as described in the “MSN Programming” of this User Manual.
You can, of course, immediately use your FernTel EURO-ISDN to make and receive
calls without first completing this programming.
All functions and features are controlled and set via integrated menus. You can acquaint
yourself with the basic functions of the menus, the control keys and the softkeys by
reading the “Menu Control” section.
Your network provider may offer some ISDN features at extra cost; therefore, it is possible
that some of the features described in these instructions are not available from your
connection. Some features are, for example, mutually exklusive. You should contact your
network provider to find out which features are standard for your connection and which
features are optional.
Please read this User Manual before initial installation and operation of your telephone.
For operation with a private branch exchange, refer to the user instructions for the tele-
phone system.
Emergency Operation
lf the local power supply fails, a power feed is supplied to the ISDN connection directly
from the exchange. This remote feed is only adequate for the operation of a single
telephone.
During emergency operation, the idle display is switched off and you must lift the
handset off hook to make a call. Thus, if several terminals are operated from the same
connection, only one of these can be authorized for emergency operation. You can
authorize your telephone for emergency operation using the switch inside the telephone.
This is done by setting the switch 2 to position on (see Switch Setting).
* lf you do not change the default setting, your telephone will signal calls to all MSNs.

88
Menu Control
The FernTel EURO-ISDN is operated on the basis of interactive menus. With these
menus, you can access all ISDN functions using only five keys.
You control the menus using the softkeys together with the forward and back scrolling
keys ( , ).
The softkeys are the three keys below the display. These keys do not have fixed functions;
they are assigned different functions depending on the given situation. The functions
that the keys currently have are specified in the display of your FernTel EURO-ISDN: the
name of the function appears in white in the lower line of the display.
In addition to the key assignments, the display will usually also contain small arrows
pointing to the right and/or to the left. These arrows indicate that you can display other
menu functions using the scroll keys. Each time you press one of the scroll keys, the
functions of the softkeys change accordingly, allowing you to “scroll” through the menu.
As previously mentioned, the menu displayed depends on what you are doing.
During a conversation, for instance, you don’t need the functions helpful during dialing.
When reading the explanations given below for the individual functions of your FernTel
EURO-ISDN, always refer to the accompanying display illustrations. The first display
illustrated represents the menu branch from which you can call up the function currently
being explained; you can scroll to this branch by pressing the scroll keys until you
reach the illustrated softkey assignment.
Practice using the menus. You’ll quickly learn which functions are available and where
you can find them.
