Viking TS-1 Instructions for use

The TS-1 is an inexpensive solution for adding transfer, intercom,
and “music on hold” features to your single line home or small
office phones.
The TS-1 produces seven unique ring patterns. By assigning
these patterns to each party, the individuals are alerted to answer
their unique ring cadence.
To transfer a call, simply dial the party’s extension number you
wish to reach (1-7) and hang up. The caller is then placed on hold
to be answered by caller the individual when their ring cadence
is recognized. To move a conversation to another phone, simply
dial 8 and hang-up. The call is placed on hold until picked up by another extension. A music input port
is available to provide “music on hold.”
The internal intercom is used by dialing the individual’s extension number twice (11 - 77), hanging up,
and listening for the phones to stop ringing, queuing you that the desired party has answered. Then sim-
ply pick up the phone to join your caller.
During intercom use, a “call waiting” tone
is generated to signal an incoming call.
