Introduction
Your 'Summit' Conference Phone uses digital technology to provide
excellent handsfree audio quality and simplicity of use.
It includes the following features.
Full Duplex Operation
Unlike many speakerphones which allow only one party to talk at any
one time (simplex operation), the Summit allows all parties to talk and
listen at the same time (duplex operation).
Two Digital Signal Processors
The Summit incorporates 2 digital signal processors which minimises
echo and feedback.
Volume Control
A control is provided to adjust the volume of the received speech.
Recall
A recall button is provided to activate network services such as call
waiting or may be used in conjunction with a PABX to transfer calls.
Redial
Automatically dial the last number you called.
Mute
Turn off the microphone so that the person at the other end does not
hear you speak. Ideal for those private 'asides'.
Ringer Switch
Allows the adjustment of the ringer volume.
Extension Microphone (optional extra)
For the larger conference room, provision is made for a second
microphone, which may be placed up to 15 feet from the conference
unit.

Product Features

Installation
To Connect the
Conference Phone
Even thought the Summit
conference phone has a built-in
dialler, we recommend that it be
connected in parallel with an
ordinary telephone. In this way,
calls can be made during power
fail conditions.
1 Plug one end of the telephone
cord provided, into the line
socket at the rear of the unit.
Plug the other end into the
telephone wall socket.
2 Connect the power adapter
jack plug, into the unit and the
adapter into a switched mains
wall outlet.
3 Switch ON the mains supply at
the wall outlet.
4 Press the ON/OFF button. If
you do not hear dial tone from
the loudspeaker, please check
the connections. If the problem
still persists, please read the
troubleshooting section at the
end of this guide.
Choosing a Location
For best results, please note the
following :-
!Everyone who is speaking
should be no further than
8 to 10 feet from the
Summits in-built
microphone (or 3 to 9 feet
from the optional
extension microphone).
!Ensure that the unit is
positioned such that the
wires will not be the way
of normal activities.
!You may wish to choose a
location that is free from
background noise.
!Your results may vary
depending on the
acoustics of the room and
the number of people
speaking.

Setting the Pulse / Tone
switch.
Before you can dial a call on the
Summit conference phone, you
must select which form of dialling
it will use.
All domestic telephone lines in
the U.K. now accept Tone
dialling. This is both fast and
accurate and should be selected
if possible.
When connected as an extension
of an office telephone system
(PABX), the setting of this switch
will be dependant on the
telephone system in question. If
in doubt, please contact your
system supplier or following the
procedure below.
1 Set the switch to the Tone
position
2 Turn the unit ON (ON/OFF
button) and listen for dial tone.
3 Dial a known number
(remember to include any line
access digit required by the
PABX usually 9).
4 If the call is successful (ringing
or engaged tone) the switch may
be left in the Tone position. If the
call is unsuccessful, terminate
the call by pressing the ON/OFF
button. Set the switch to the
Installation
Pulse position and try the test
above again.
Using the Tone Button
If you have set the Tone / Pulse
switch to the Pulse position, you
may temporarily change to Tone
dialling by pressing the Tone
button. This may be required
when accessing automated
telephone services, which require
Tone signals.
Setting the Ringer Volume
Your Summit conference phone
will ring for incoming calls. The
Ringer Volume Switch may be
used to adjust the volume of the
ringer between High, LOW or
OFF. With the switch set to the
OFF position, the unit will not ring
for incoming calls but can still be
used to make outgoing calls, or
to answer incoming calls ringing
on a parallel extension phone

Operation
Making a Call Using the
Summit Conference
Phone
1 Press the ON/OFF button and
listen for dial tone.
2 Dial the required number on
the keypad (when connected to
an extension of a PABX,
remember to include any line
access digit required).
3 When the other party answers,
you may conduct a conversation
using the built-in microphone.
4 When you have finished the
call, press the ON/OFF button
again.
Receive Volume
You may adjust the volume of
receive speech, by pressing the
UP and DOWN buttons. When
you have reached the maximum
or minimum positions, the unit
will beep 3 times.
As this beep may be quite loud
over the telephone line, it is
recommended that you advise
the other party before adjusting
the volume.
Note : With the volume in the
minimum position, the incoming
speech will be very quiet. This
position may be useful if you
wish
to include a non active party in
your call i.e. you would like
another partly to listen in to a
conversation or discussion you
are having, but not be able to
take part in it.
Mute
The Summits microphone(s) may
be turned off, by pressing the
Mute button. This will still allow
you to hear the other party but
they will not be able to hear you.
Press the Mute button again to
return to normal conversation.
Note : If you have installed the
optional extension microphone,
this will also be muted.
To Answer an Incoming
Call
Calls may be answered on the
Summit conference phone by
pressing the ON / Off button, (the
Mute and Volume buttons will
work in the normal way).
The ON / OFF button should be
pressed again when the call is
completed.

Operation
Making a Call using a
Parallel Telephone
You can also make a call on a
parallel (extension) telephone
and then transfer the call to the
Summit conference phone.
The call should be dialled on
your telephone in the normal
way.
When you wish to transfer the
call, press the ON / OFF button
on the conference unit and hang
up the telephone by returning the
handset to its cradle.
Caution : If you do not hang up
the telephone, you may
experience a whistling noise
caused by feedback between the
2 products.
Redial
To call the last number you
dialled on the conference unit,
you can use the Redial function.
Turn the unit ON by pressing the
ON / OFF button and press the
Redial Key.
Note : The Redial function may not
operate under all possible conditions of
connection to PABX equipment. Some
PABX equipment may require a pause
between the line access digit and the
telephone number. A pause is not
available on this product.
Recall
The Summit conference phone
generates a recall signal for use
when connected to an office
PABX (transferring or placing
calls on hold etc.) or when
accessing additional network
services such as call waiting.
With the Pulse / Tone switch set
in the Pulse position, the unit will
generate an Earth recall.
With the switch set to the Tone
position, the unit will generate a
Timed Break Recall (TBR) of
approximately 100mS.
Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN)
If you connect too many devices
to your telephone line, they may
not ring correctly. On each
product you have connected to
your telephone line, will be
printed a REN number. Add
these REN numbers together
and ensure that they do not
exceed a total of 4.
The REN of the Summit
conference phone is 1.
Note : Any unmarked BT
instrument may be assumed to
have a REN of 1.

Extension Microphone (Option)
Using the optional
Extension Microphone
The optional Extension
Microphone will increase the
area over which people taking
part in the conference may be
located. If there are people
placed further than 8 to 10 feet
from the conference phone, then
the Extension Microphone should
be used.
It is recommended that the
extension microphone is
positioned around 15 feet from
the conference phone base unit.
Locating the extension
microphone within 3 feet of the
base unit may result in
interference.
It is installed by plugging the
connector plug into the socket
provided at the rear of the base
unit.
The Extension unit includes its
own Mute button and Indicator
light. When the indictor light
shows Green, the microphone is
active. When it shows Red, it is
muted.
Pressing the Mute button on
either the base unit or the
Extension Microphone unit, will
cause both of the microphones to
be muted.
