Hello all, I I recently took a position with a small company and was given the task of installing a DK280 system. We will be using EKT6520-H's for our station phones. I have purchased a programming manual. I have powered up the base unit, the heartbeat light is on on the RCTUB1, the PEKU dip switch is set to EKT's, and I am using an EKT6020sd for the programming phone-plugged into port 5, circuit 6, no. 205, and the LCD has the proper display, but I cannot get it to go in programing mode. Is there something I'm missing? Also, does anybody know where I can get a programming template for this phone? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

at the top of every programming page is the key stroke sequence to enter programming for that programming and exit info

i think you are going to need a dkt-2020sd to
program that with a phone. anybody else confirm that? hope you have a peku to support
tha phone. peku,s support the analog 6000's. makes a nice inexpensive system though. sundance should have both.

I have been entering the keystroke sequence of " *#*#1*2*3 " I have tried this with the handset both on hook and off. According to the manual, after entering this my display should go from the timme/date/station# to displaying "Program mode." I have gone back and checked all the physical connections. Also, as far as programming with the dkt, I have tried that, but quickly realized that a digital phone wouldn't work with the electronic peku. By the way, thanks for such quick responses.

According to my manual, you can program with EITHER a EKT6520sd or a DKT2020sd.
I have a copy of the programming template that I can email to you although the scan quality is not that great.
The template should also be in your programming manual. My ancient manual has it on page 8-4.
You have mail as far as the template goes.
Make sure that the PEKU you have the programming phne plugged into is in slot 11.

If you dial #402 from your pdn button, it will tell you what port number you are on to be sure that you are on port 005.

turn off the system leave in the memory
cards
leave in the peku in the first slot after
memory cards /back out the other cards
and turn it on
plugin your ekt and confirm port is 005
try the *# etc to see if you get in
also is the display clear on your set
in the last week i have tried to program
with a ekt6020sd and 2 out of 3 displays
were not legible
where was this system b4 you inherited it ?
also make sure little needle fuses in power supply are set
is ther an amphenol cabel on the connector
on the first peku and where is it going
is it a raw cable or going to the main frame
to punch down blocks ?

From the info that you have posted it sounds like you're doing everything right. If you have a 6520sd phone try programming with it.

I have a dk280 with a rctub2 processor with a peku1 card set up now in my work shop. Using a 6020h "non display phone I was able to enter program mode and make changes in prgms 81 and 16. I was working blind but the 6020 phones will apparently work for programming. Without lifting the receiver and without pushing the speaker or intercom button I entered *#*#1*2*3spk and entered my prgrm numbers. You do not use intercom dial tone to enter programming.
