Getting started with Norstar Your Norstar digital key system has many powerful features that can be customized to keep up with changes in your workplace. Using this guide The person who is responsible for adding or moving telephones or making changes to the system is called the system coordinator. This guide is designed to give the system coordinator all the information he or she needs to carry out these kinds of jobs.
2 / Getting started with Norstar There are four ways to customize and maintain your Norstar system: Initial programming is done for you by your installer or customer service representative. It deals mostly with how the system interacts with lines, telephones, and other equipment. Your programming as a system coordinator changes how features work for the system, as needed. It requires a system coordinator password.
Getting started with Norstar / 3 features do not work. Do not use the main reception telephone for programming because you may lose incoming calls. Using Buttons The two-line telephone you use for everyday calling is also used for changes and maintenance. Examples of telephones with two-line displays are shown in the illustration.

What would you like to do next? Some of the most common programming tasks are listed below. For a comprehensive list of settings and instructions, see either the Table of Contents or the Index. Redirect calls coming in on a line. See “Turning on Line Redirection” on page 74.
Answering calls Answering an incoming call There are three indications of an incoming call: ringing, a line button flashing, and a message on the display. You will not necessarily receive all three indications for any particular call. For example, you may have a line that has been set up not to ring at your telephone. If so, you will see only a flashing line button. There are many possible combinations, depending on how your system is set up.
28 / Answering calls º º º º What line indicators mean Flashing on and off for equal lengths of time There is an incoming call on the line. Flashing on and off more quickly You have placed a call on hold. Flashing on for longer than off Someone else has put a call on hold on that line. On, not flashing You are connected to the call on that line or the line is in use elsewhere. Off The line is free. Rings you may hear A double beep every ten seconds A call has been camped to your telephone.
Answering calls / 29 Someone has camped, parked or transferred a call on line 001, but no one has answered it. Press CALLBACK or the line button to connect to the call. There is no telephone that can receive a call on line 001 so the system has transferred it to you. The call coming in on line 002 was intended for target line 052. Line 052 is busy so the call has come to you. For other displays, see “Common feature displays” on page 149.
30 / Answering calls Customizing your CAP module If your installer has programmed the CAP module to be the central answering position for your system, you can move external lines onto the CAP module by using . See “Moving line buttons” on page 98. ƒ•°⁄ Any of the buttons on your CAP module that do not select lines can be programmed to dial internal or external numbers automatically. You can also program features onto CAP module buttons.
® Answering calls / 31 ƒ While you are on a call, do not press to end a feature you are using. If you do, you will disconnect the call. Use instead. Hearing aid compatibility The receivers on all Norstar telephones are compatible with hearing aids as defined in the FCC rules, Part 68, section 68.316. Not all hearing aids are optimized for use with a telephone.
32 / Answering calls Names and numbers for external calls are displayed only if you have subscribed to Call Display services from your telephone company.
