Note:
Note: Hold key lights green for internal held calls. If an ICM key is assigned on a function Key 1 ~ 24, the ICM key lights RED for internal held call, but hold key will not light green.
The DT430/ Multiline Terminal can be connected according to the following terminal power factor table.
Maximum Number of Terminals Installed
Terminal Power Factor
Note: Each 082U-B1 blade comes with 2 SLT/Doorphone ports. When these are connected to a SLT phone or Doorphone, they will consume a power factor of 1. This needs to be considered when connecting DTZ-24D-3A Digital terminals.
The SL2100 Series supports Users of wireless headsets answering/hanging up calls via the call button on the headset. This feature is known as Electronic Hook Switch (EHS).
Prior to the release of this feature Users have typically had to manually lift the handset of the terminal or install a mechanical handset lifter with the terminal to answer/hang up a call.
For Users who receive a high number of calls during a working day or spend a significant amount of time on a call, the benefit of the headset to the User has been in freeing up their hands for such activities as typing or to have the opportunity to walk away from the location of the terminal. However they have had to return to the terminal to hang up the handset in readiness for the next call.
With EHS they can now hang up the call via the call button on the headset and be ready to receive the next call regardless of whether they are in reach of the terminal.
To implement electronic hook switch for a User with NEC and Plantronics you will require the following:
Compatible NEC DT Series Terminal
Refer to the section titled, EHS Supported DT Series Terminals within this document.
Plantronics EHS cable - APN-91
The package includes the cable for connection of the DT430/830 Series Terminal to the Headset Base Unit.
Plantronics EHS cable - APD-80
The package includes the cable for connection to the SL2100 Terminals and Headset Base Unit.
Wireless Headset from Plantronics
NEC recommends either the wireless headset series CS500 or the Savi W700.
Note: The example below uses the Plantronics Headset CS530 & EHS cable APN-91.
The following table specifies the SL2100 Platform which Series terminals are capable of supporting Electronic Hook Switch functionality. Also the SL2100 Headset Mode is configured by assigning a Key on each SL2100/DT Series Terminal that will be supporting EHS.
NEC Strategic Business Partners can now download the latest DT Series Terminal firmware version
Attention: When connecting the EHS cable to a compatible SL2100 Digital terminal the terminal must be turned off. Additional instructions (beyond what is noted below) will be provided with the headset purchase.
Note: The example below shows the NEC WHA-A adapter and Plantronics EHS cable APD-80 that must be used with the following SL2100 Terminals:
IP7WW-12TXH-B1-TEL IP7WW-24TXH-B1-TEL
Note: Microphone connection not required for SL2100 Digital/IP terminal.
Note: Headset base shown is Plantronics CS530.
Set your compatibility switch, speaking and microphone volumes to the following to ensure you have no feedback issues.
Note: Noise and a high pitch sound, indicates that the settings on base are incorrectly set.
Attention: When connecting the EHS cable to a compatible DT300/DT700/DT400/DT800 terminal, the terminal must be turned off. Additional instructions (beyond what is noted below) will be provided with the headset purchase.
ATTENTION: The 10 Pin Header connector has grooves that will allow it to fit easily into the port. Don’t jam (push) the connector into the port otherwise the connector will break.
Please note: Slot 1 of the NEC terminal is only capable of connecting one (1) of the two (2) available options (EHS or 8LK) at any given time. Due to this the 8LK module is not supported when the EHS function is enabled.
Note: Headset base shown is Plantronics CS530.
Set your compatibility switch, speaking and microphone volumes to the following to ensure you have no feedback issues.
Note: The speaker & microphone volume(s) may vary depending on the customer’s envinroment.
Attention: When connecting the EHS cable to a compatible SL2100 Digital or IP terminal the terminal must be turned off. Additional instructions (beyond what is noted below) will be provided with the headset purchase.
Note: The example below shows the Plantronics EHS cable APD-80 that must be used with the following SL2100 Terminals:
IP7WW-8IPLD-TEL

Electronic Head Set feature does not require licensing to work, but must be enabled on a per phone basis in the IP terminal Maintenance Menu.
Note: Headset base shown is Plantronics CS530.
Set your compatibility switch, speaking and microphone volumes to the following to ensure you have no feedback issues.
Note: The speaker & microphone volume(s) may vary depending on the customer’s envinroment.
The SL2100 Digital handset series handset provides the ability for a headset user to lower extension ringing and therefore the ringing will be heard predominantly via the headset earpiece. This is achieved with the following user setting.
The DT430 series handset provides the ability for a headset user to disable extension from ringing and therefore the ringing will only be heard via the headset earpiece. This is achieved with the following user setting.
The SL2100 IP and DT830 series handset provides the ability for a headset user to disable extension from ringing and therefore the ringing will only be heard via the headset earpiece. This is achieved with the following user setting.
The following software versions are the latest releases at the date of publication. Updates will be published via Nebula as required.
