atcomsystems.ca/forum Forums TDM Business Telephone Systems NEC Telephones & Systems NEC Dterm80 Headset..

Hello everyone,
I am trying to configure the phones at my place of employment to be able to use headset and handset.
The phone system we use is Elektra Elite IPK, the phones we have are the NEC Dterm80.
We do not have any manuals for the system as an outside company had configured everything for us years ago.
I am just trying to do the simple task of being able to use the headset port to work while my hands are free to type.
Can anyone familiar with this system help me out?

Thank you and i look forward from hearing from you

A Headset Button would have to be Programed on the Phone Through System Programming.

How do i access system programming? (sorry if any of my questions sound stupid, they left us with no manual)

Are There any Unused Buttons On your Phone?

yes there are

Hi guys -- same question, same issue. Using NEC Dterm80 and need to activate a headset.

Also, any ideas on headset compatibility? The most comfortable one is AT+T -- will it work with the NEC phone? Sorry for the dumb questions.

Thanks for any help!

Rickman - Could you please send me the same? I am working at a small firm and no one seems to have any idea how the phones work. I see a headset button on the phone and would love to plug in so I could gesticulate with both hands when I talk.
Thanks,
Paul

When You Press the Headset Button, do you see The Intercom Number show in the Display? Just like you had Picked up the Handset?

Hi guys -- same question again, same issue. Using NEC Dterm80 and need to activate a headset.

I have found some manuals, but nothing specifically for the NEC Dterm80. Can't work out the Feature key, doesn't function as any of the manuals suggest. Only things that do anything are:
Feature 1: turn mic on/off
Feature 3: Version info and MAC address
Feature 0: General Purpose Relay

What system? The Dterm80 is a PHONE.

Seems a common problem, I have the same one. How do you activate the headset jack on the DTerm 80. The system is an Electra Elite (both NEC).

Thanks,
Dave

You need to program a headset button onto the phone.

Scott

Thanks Scott,

Now if only I knew how to program the button (I have one free, but the system was setup by a third party and no one here has the manuals for it. I'll have to wait the the third party to come in.)

Same help need here. I need to program an headset key on the phone.
Thank you.

Hi,
We have an NEC Xen IPK, (B64-U23 KSU) and a Dterm Series i (DTR-8D-1A).
Could you please send me details on programming the Headset button on the phone.
Thankyou

If you could PM me the answer too, it would be much appreciated. Same setup, same phone, need to know how to program a free button to allow easy use of headset.

I have an Electra Elite IPK2 NEC Dterm 80 8 line... how the heck do you use a headset???

On IPK II:

Press Speaker + 751 + Blank Key you want to program + 05 + Speaker.

The "Blank Key" will now be your headset off hook / hang up button.

holy resurrected thread Batman!

Hello,Rickman
Can I also get PM on this issue?
Thank you

I am in desperate need of assistance as well. I am a receptionist at a law firm and we just got a head set for the NEC dterm 80, however, we need to program the headset to a certain button I believe and I am not sure how to do this. Can someone help? Thank you

For For the Future Folks, Dterm 80 is a Type of Phone. The Type of Telephone System will be Needed. :thumb:

Hey there Rickman -- can you please PM me the info for my NEC Dterm80 phone as well? I really need to program my phone to work with a headset.

I am not sure what type of phone system is being used ...

Thanks.

PM Sent

Heya Rickman,
Guess what, I'm hoping for a PM too...?
NEC Dterm Series i - there's no 'headset' displayed above any of the softkeys. How do I get my headset to work?
Thanks

To make things easier for Rickman, it might help if those needing a headset button would find the box on the wall that all the telephone wires go into -- it's usually in a closet somewhere, or a bathroom, or a break room -- and tell us what it says on the box. Also, the color and size would help, and any stripes if present -- i.e. "navy box with royal blue diagonal stripes" or "navy blue box, no stripes" or "tan box with vertical blue stripe."

This will determine what model of phone system your Dterm 80 phones are connected to (there are at least three possible, and all program differently).

BTW, if there is no available button, I sometimes use the ANS key, since few people use it for its intended purpose.

Hi Rickman,

Same deal... Electra Elite IPK...Dterm 80

Need to program the headset...

thanks in advance!

Hey Rickman,
I need some help too. I've got the Dterm80 phone and can't figure out what to do about the headset. What do I buy, and how do I install. I don't have the phone system info, so where can I find that?
Thanks!!!!

Hello Rickman-

Hate to continue the monotony, but if you wouldn't mind sharing the information yet again I would be very grateful.

Thanks.

Hello Rickman

Please pm me also as we are in need of this information as well. If you have a copy of the manual I would be greatly appreciated.

PS Thanks Rickman I really appreciate any help you can give us.

I too have the same problem, afew of our phones have a headset button programed in, but a couple dont. We have many unused buttons currently, if you can also send me the instructions to program that button to work. It's the Dterm80 16 button unit.
Thanks!

Hello Rickman,

I'm in the same boat with a NEC system using dterm80 handsets and I am unable to program for headset use. Would you please PM me the programming instructs?

Thanks

And I neglected to mention we have an Electra Elite IPK box.

If memory serves, on IPKII

press Prog, Press Fctn, then the open function key, Then dial 05(headset) <---I could be way off on that.

If all else fails RTFM

Thanks Junkbox I will give it a shot tomorrow.

Hi Rickman,

I have an Electra Elite IPK using Dterm 80

I also need to program the headset.

Thanks for your help!

Hi! Same problem here. I need help programming the Elite IPK II D term 80 headset. Thanks so much for your help!

Hello, I'm new to the boards and I was wondering if someone has information on programming instructions to enable headset on one of the buttons?

rickman i also need the PM on how to program the Dterm80 on an Electra Elite IPK. I have spare buttons

Resurrecting this topic - I have the exact same issue, The phone system we use is Elektra Elite IPK, (B64-U20 KSU). The phones we have are the NEC Dterm80. I have a couple of spare buttons per phone. I am adding a GN Netcom 9120 wireless headset. Can you help me with the system programming to add the headset? Much appreciated.

Thanks, Rickman. Your assistance was right on target. Much appreciated.

Could I get an email solution to this issue please?

I have the very same problem as the others would RickMan still be around? Electra Elite IPK using Dterm 80

I have one NEC dterm80 8-line phone on Elite IPK box system that it is not accepting the programming for headset. Instructions are followed: Press Speaker + 751 + Blank Key you want to program + 05 + Speaker. There are a few spare buttons, and it accepts other codes but not this one. Other phones are using the headset without a problem, and phones and headsets are the same. Please help.

Same here! Have Electra Elite and NEC Dterm80 I need to program a headset button. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Add me to the list of people with the same problem, please PM Rickman!

Okay, I just joined this forum because it's the only place where I believe I can get help with the same question, but a slight tweak, that's been asked and answered several times.

I followed the instructions that bbox, who, obviously walks on water, provided. Now, a different issue. When using my headset I can hear the person on the other end just fine, but nobody on the other line can hear me. I hit 751+ a blank key + 05 + speaker. Lo and behold, I now just hit that no longer blank key and hear the dialtone through my headset! But since then I can make calls through the headset but even though I can hear the person on the other line that person can't hear me.

I thought it might be the headset so I tried two more. Same problem. I then hooked all three headsets to my old phone, and all worked fine. I could hear fine and so could the other person. I can't go back to my old phone because in order for the receptionist located upstairs to answer my phone, I have to use this type of phone, which must be the type that makes all that work. The phone is an NEC Dterm80.

It may or may not be relevant but I have noticed that while I'm speaking through my headset, when I turn the volume up and down the display that shows the volume going up and down reads "handset." Please, brilliant people, help me! I had fusion in my neck, but it didn't help my neck pain a whole lot. It just hurts like hell to talk on the phone even for a few minutes without without using a headset! Please, help! Thanks so much for everything y'all have already don for me. It's saved me countless hours of useless googling.

Hello. I'm having the same issue here. The model is a NEC DTERM 80 (DTH-16D-1) and we are trying to setup the headset, the extra funtion keys shows as "unused" and feature is selected. Any suggestions? Thanks a bunch in advance...

Hi, I need your help in guiding me to configure a headset button on a NEC Dterm80 8 button system. I currently have one free button to assign as the headset button. We are on Elite IPK2. Thanks a lot!

If Rickman or anyone else who he has PM'd with this info is still available...

I too have a Dterm 80 8-button with a couple of buttons free. We have an Elite IPK1.

I hope there's help out there. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer

I have a similar problem and need to reprogram voice mail and by pass ex employee's passwords and I don't have a Manuel Please help me

I've programmed the headset button i needed but I've also reprogrammed our main line (Line 1) on two of the ports, (Port1 & 2) unknowingly. Could anyoen perhaps help me reprogram these two button to be able to pick up our main incoming calls. When i Feature 4 on the main line it reads VACANT, when I feature 4 on the Line 2 it reads "C LINE 2" or something I can't read all the letters. I appreciate any help you can provide.

Just hoping someone is still moderating this...

We have an Electra Elite IPK phone system and would like to set it up so we can use a headset on our Dterm80 phone.

Thanks for any help, information, and guidance.

Hi,

I have a similar issue to this.
Phone: DTerm80
System: Electra Elite IPK

Instructions followed: Press Speaker + 751 + Blank Key you want to program + 05 + Speaker.

This programs the button for "headset" but I get NO AUDIO AT ALL when I press this button. I tried accessing a line, but this button now functions more like a "mute" button than a headset button.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Please forward the instructions to me also for the Nec dterm 80 on an Electra Elite IPK. Thanks in advance.

You might not want to be holding your breath waiting for an answer. The previous six posters haven't been on for over FIVE years!

Hi Guys been away for awhile, what instructions are needed?
