The HDST-12 telephone is designed for use behind a registered 
PABX system.  The PABX “station port” type must be “industry 
standard analog” or “POTS.”  This telephone cannot be used with 
“digital” PABX station ports.  The telephone user or installer must 
supply a 2-wire, RJ-11 modular wall jack to connect this telephone to 
the PABX system.    
 
To install telephone, first snap supplied coiled handset cord into the 
jack on the end of handset.  Then place the handset in its cradle.  
Connect the free end of the coiled handset cord to the jack on LEFT 
SIDE of the telephone body, marked with a “handset” symbol.  This 
jack is closer to the front of the telephone. Next, take supplied 
straight modular cord and insert it into jack on the REAR of 
telephone.  Connect the other end of this cord to telephone system 
wall jack.  Lift the handset.  A dial tone should be heard.  
 

The HDST-12 telephone does not include a headset, but is designed 
to work with all headsets having a “2.5mm” plug.  An adaptor cord for 
connecting the headset is included. To connect headset, first plug 
the “modular connector” end of the headset adaptor cord into the 
jack on the LEFT SIDE of the telephone with the “Headset” symbol 
next to it.  This jack is closer to the rear of the telephone than the 
“Handset” connector.  Then plug headset into the 2.5mm socket on 
the end of headset adaptor cord.   

It is best to do this conversion before connecting the handset and 
line cords 
1.  The wall/desk handset clip is on the front of the phone directly 

above the speaker grill. This clip is spring loaded. Gently pull it 
up and turn ½ turn to change from desk to wall mount.  In the 
wall position, the clip extends up to hold the handset in place.  
This clip does not come off so it cannot be lost. 

2.  Turn the telephone over so the telephone face is down. 
3.  Locate the wall-mounting bracket.  Note the 4 retaining tabs on 

bracket.
