FAQ tiptel 85 System (from vers. 2.xx)
Mode of Use: Office or Switchboard?
as of Dec. 08, 2008
1. Modes of use
When turning on the telephone with factory default settings for the very first time the user is prompted
to choose among two modes of use Office (Standard) or Switchboard (Receptionist). The mode
selected will be shown under the menu item "Information“ -> "Software". Changing the mode of use
at a later time is only possible by resetting the telephone to factory default settings.
When updating the firmware from Rel. 1 to Rel. 2 the mode Standard will automatically be set.
2. Predefined function keys in switchboard mode
When changing to switchboard mode the following function keys will be programmed in the phone:
Key 1 -Accept (accept waiting call)
Key 2 -Transfer (explicit call transfer)
Key 3 -Disconnect
For correct operation these keys may not be assigned by the PBX in any way. As before, function
keys configured within the PBX have a higher priority. The predefined keys can be reprogrammed
later as usual.
When selecting standard mode all keys on the telephone are not being pre-programmed.

3. Display keys (selection keys)
The main difference between standard mode and switchboard mode is the function of the display keys
(selection keys) when dealing with more than one call at the same time. Different connections will be
shown on the display in a list and can basically have three states:
One connection in "connected" state
One or more connections in "on hold" state
One or more connections in "call waiting" state
In standard mode
When operating the display keys with the connection list in standard mode a continuative list with
available options is shown (same as with release 1).
In switchboard mode
When operating the display keys in switchboard mode next to the connections "on hold" or "call
waiting" the predefined function will be carried out immediately:
Connections in "on hold" state Function “retrieve”
Connections in "call waiting" state Function "accept"
