About ISDN

Your new Lucent Technologies 970 Telephone is

developed for use with ISDN service. ISDN (Integrated

Services Digital Network) is one of the ways you can

get local telephone service from your local provider.

ISDN service has been around for a while and is

extensively used by large companies. Now the service

is affordable and attractive to small companies and

residences with telephone needs that stretch the limits

of traditional service.

Before you can use your telephone, you need to apply

for ISDN service from your local telephone service

provider. There are various packages of service

available, and you need to consider the differences

carefully.

You have a long list of features available to you with

your combination of ISDN service and your Lucent

Technologies ISDN 970 Telephone. Together they give

you an ISDN System that can be customized to fit

your needs. Because of these capabilities, there are a

few steps to be completed to set up your system, after

which you can customize your system as much or as

little as you require. (See the Installation and Setup

Manual.)

ISDN Terms

Here are a few terms you will want to understand as

you customize your ISDN system.

Call Appearance: With traditional telephone service,

you had a “telephone line” on which you could have a

single “call appearance.” Then came call waiting, and

you had two call appearances per telephone line: you

talked on one call appearance and the other call came

in on the second. You could toggle back and forth

between the two call appearances by putting one call

appearance on hold. ISDN service can provide you

with multiple call appearances.

970 ISDN Telephone

SPID: More than one telephone number may be

assigned to you, according to your ISDN service, and

each telephone number may have different features.

The local telephone service provider has provided a

SPID (Service Profile Identifier). It’s not the number

someone uses to call you: that number is still a

“telephone number.” But it is the number the network

system uses to identify you. You won’t have much to

do with your SPID after you setup your system, but it

must be entered during the initial installation. The

SPID is provided by your local telephone company.

DN: Your “Directory Number” (or telephone number)

is the number others use to call your system.

Depending on your ISDN service, you may have more

than one DN.

National ISDN: National ISDN service standardizes

ISDN service across the nation.

Download Programming: Depending on your

service, some configuration settings may be

automatically set for you when your telephone requests

a download from the service provider.

Display

The 3-line by 20-character display provides system

instructions and responses to what is happening on a

call and to your actions. A typical display screen looks

like this:

Select

Message Rate: Med

SLOW MED FAST DONE

The first line of the display will often name the feature

or function you are using or modifying. In the

illustration above, the first line indicates that you have

chosen to modify or view the current setting for the

Timed Message Rate.

When appropriate, the second line will show the

current setting of an option or feature. In the illustrated

display, the current setting of the Timed Message Rate

is Medium.

Softkeys

“Softkeys” may appear on the bottom line of the

display as underlined text. When they appear, they

label the function of the buttons directly below the

display area. So, in the illustration to the left, you

would press the far left button to change the setting to

SLOW. When finished modifying the feature, press the

far right button for DONE.

There will not always be four softkeys. Sometimes

there will be fewer; sometimes a softkey will span two

buttons. If a button does not have a softkey label, that

button is not active at that time.

Parts of the Telephone

(back)

Auxiliary Jack: (Labeled AUX) Connects an external

analog telecommunications device, like a fax machine,

telephone, or modem, to the ISDN 970 telephone. The

auxiliary jack may be assigned a separate SPID and

telephone number, depending on your configuration.

See the Installation and Setup manual.

The device connected to the auxiliary jack and the 970

ISDN telephone cannot be used simultaneously unless

it is assigned a separate SPID and telephone number.

If a separate SPID and telephone number have been

assigned, the device connected to the auxiliary jack

and the 970 Telephone are completely separate and are

not extensions of each other, as though they were

plugged into separate telephone jacks.

Handset Jack: On the handset side of the telephone, it

connects the handset cord.

WARNING: Do NOT insert the handset cord in the

LINE or AUX jack on the back of the 970 Telephone.

To do so could cause equipment damage.

Line Jack: (Labeled LINE) Connects the ISDN line

cord to your telephone.

WARNING: Do NOT insert the ISDN line cord into

the AUX jack on the back of the 970 Telephone. To do

so could cause equipment damage.
