later in the book.

GETTING STARTED
SHORT GLOSSARY OF TERMINOLOGY USED IN THIS MANUAL
Hook switch: The part of the phone that pops up to activate the
phone line when the handset is lifted from the base. On this phone,
each of the line buttons acts as a hook switch.
Line indicator: The light located next to each of the line buttons; it
shows you the status of each line.
Off-hook. A term used to describe the phone in its active mode. For
this phone, off hook would require that one of the line buttons is active.
On-hook. A term used to describe the phone in an inactive mode.
MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
A modular jack USOC: RJ11C or a RJ14C is required.
Installation of this telephone in locations with 4-prong jacks or with

hard-wired outlets requires additional converters (not included). The
dealer from whom you purchased the system, or a telephone supply
store, can advise you regarding the proper converter.
PHONE NUMBER LINE 1 LINE 2 PHONE NUMBER
INSTALLATION OPTIONS
Although you can use your Panacom 2-line speakerphone with a
single phone line, it is designed with a 2-line system in mind. The
following diagrams show two possible systems:
2 Lines on a Single Modular Jack
The most common two-line phone system uses a single RJ14 modu-
lar jack which contains both phone lines.
2 Lines on Separate Modular Jacks
It is possible that each line has its own RJ11 modular jack, which means
that you will need a 2-line coupler in order to use both lines on this
phone. Check with your local phone dealer to get a two-line coupler.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
The installation of the 4 AA optional
batteries allows the normal perfor-
mance of the special functions of
this phone.

SPEAKERPHONE LOCATION & USE GUIDELINES
For best speakerphone performance, avoid the following:
• Areas with high background noise. (The microphone might pick
up these sounds and prevent the speakerphone from going into the
receiving mode when you nish talking.)
• Surfaces affected by vibration.
• Recessed areas such as in a corner, under a cupboard, or next to
a cabinet, which can generate an echo effect.
Note the following guidelines when you use the speakerphone:

Pg. 9
• The speakerphone works similar to a two-way radio in that you can
only listen or talk at one time.
• Stay reasonably close to the phone so that you can be clearly
heard by the person to whom you are talking.
• The speakerphone indicator light is on when the speakerphone is in use.

and 9 seconds.

tering a number in step 2 of the procedure for memory.
