4.1.1 Sharing Contacts

The Allworx system shares the User, System, and Public Contact types with all of the Allworx user’s connected Allworx phones, Reach devices, and the Interact application. Within the Reach and Interact Professional applications, Allworx users control sharing and synchronizing the Personal Contacts to the devices assigned to the Allworx user. See the Reach for iOS, Reach for Android, or the Interact and Interact Professional User Guide for more information about sharing Personal Contacts.

Visual example of sharing contacts using a Connect server:

4.1.2 Contact Privacy

Allworx users control sharing and synchronizing the Personal Contacts to the devices assigned to the Allworx user on the Settings > Phone Preferences > Display > Personal Contacts, screen:

• Unrestricted - Contact matches are displayed and require phone log in to view or modify details. Login is valid until the user leaves the Contacts screen.

• Restricted - Contact matches are displayed and after authentication via soft key to see personal contacts including Contact programmable buttons. Log in is valid until user logs out via soft button on Contacts screen or automatically logged out when the phone is rebooted or enters Sleep mode. Contact lock status always displays on the Verge IP phone series status bar.

4.1.3 Data Protection

Only the Allworx user has access to their personal contacts; the Allworx Server Administrator cannot access the personal contacts. Allworx users can prevent others from see the personal contacts on their Verge IP phone by restricting access. This requires the Allworx PIN to unlock the Verge IP phone.

4.1.4 Managing Personal Contacts

Allworx users can manage and update Personal Contacts by using the originating device or application. The Verge IP phone Personal Contact Details screen identifies the originating application in the Account line. Only the Allworx user can add, edit, or delete each Personal Contact. Allworx Server Administrators can delete all of a user’s personal contacts from the Connect server permanently.

Example:

Jane Smith needs to update her Personal Contact, Tom Wright. Since Jane uses the Verge IP phone, Reach for iOS, and the Interact application, she needs to determine how she added Tom to her Personal Contacts. Jane opens the Contact Details for Tom Wright and scrolls to look at the Account line and learn how she added Tom to her Personal Contacts.

If the Account line reads:

• Allworx Personal: Jane added Tom Wright using her Verge IP phone. To update the contact information about Tom, Jane can use her Verge IP phone, the Reach application or the Interact Professional application.

• Allworx User, Allworx System, Allworx Public* – The Allworx Server Administrator manages these contacts using the Allworx System software.

• <email account>: Jane used her email account (such as Gmail or Outlook) to synchronize her contacts with her Verge IP phone. To update the contact information about Tom, Jane must do so in her email application.

• <Reach device>: Jane used an iOS or Android app (such as Contacts) to manage her contacts to her Verge IP phone. To update the contact information about Tom, Jane must do so on the identified device in the appropriate app.

* the only user-editable options for these contacts types are the Favorite status and the choice of default phone number on the Verge IP phone, Reach application or Interact application.

4.4 Shared Call Appearance

Handle a set of one or more appearances as a single appearance shared across multiple phones. All phones in the Shared Appearance have access to calls and operations within the group of phones. For example, an incoming call can ring on all phones using the appearance, one user answers the call and places the call on hold, and then another user retrieves the call. The Shared Call Appearance is available as a destination in any extension call route using My Allworx Manager (if permissions are enabled).

Phones that do not share the Shared Call Appearance can pick up ringing calls on a Shared Call Appearance line. Once another call appearance picks up a call, the shared call appearance returns to the idle state. If a phone outside the Shared Call Appearance group picks up a call, the call is no longer a part of that Shared Call Appearance, i.e., a non-Shared Call Appearance phone picks up a call and places it on hold, it is a “normal” hold and not one of the Shared Call Appearance hold types.

An active inbound call on a Shared Call Appearance line (or connecting an outbound call), renders the line unavailable to all other phones using the Shared Call Appearance. When there is an active call on a Shared Call Appearance, the Verge IP phone screen displays the Caller ID information of the party.

Using the Call Forwarding option on a phone does not forward Shared Call Appearance calls.

If a user parks a Shared Call Appearance call and the Park timeout setting for the system is set to ring back to the phone that parked the call, the parked call rings back only to the phone that parked it. It does not ring all phones in the Shared Call Appearance. The Shared Call Appearance programmable button LED goes out and the call is no longer on the Shared Call Appearance.

Shared Call Appearances support three distinct types of hold behavior:

• Public Hold - any phone using the Shared Call Appearance can retrieve the call on hold. When using this hold type, the system delivers Hold Reminders to all phones in the Shared Call Appearance per the individual phone settings. If no one picks up the held call, all phones receive a notification per the individual HOLD reminder settings. Press the Public soft key.

The Allworx System does not support including a call on a shared hold in phone-hosted conferences.

4.7 Bluetooth Wireless Technology

The Allworx Server Administrator must enable the Bluetooth option for pairing a Bluetooth device to the Verge 9312 IP phone.

Bluetooth devices supporting only A2DP Bluetooth profiles (such as tablets) are not supported.

The phone call audio is dependent upon the type of headset and the number devices in the 2.4GHz space. During an active call, users may experience some noise or drop outs with a Bluetooth headset.

During an active call, Bluetooth users must use the Bluetooth Hands-Free programmable button to migrate the active call from the Bluetooth smart phone to the Verge IP phone. The Verge IP phone does not accept pushed audio so that users do not inadvertently send the call to the Verge IP phone while the user is not at the phone.

The Verge 9312 IP phone supports one Bluetooth Hands-Free programmable button. Additionally, the Verge 9312 IP phone supports connecting both the Headset Profile (naive Bluetooth headsets) and the Hands-Free Profile (mobile devices); however, use can connect only one device at a time.

If the user wearing a Bluetooth headset moves out of range while on an active call, the Verge 9312 IP phone automatically places the active call on hold. To retrieve the call, press the Verge 9312 IP phone call appearance programmable button.

• Headset Profile: conduct an Allworx call using a native Bluetooth headset.

Example: Joe is finishing a call with a supplier on speaker phone, but he needs to get to Room 1 for a meeting. Joe taps the Headset button to transition the audio to the Bluetooth headset. He finishes the call with his supplier on the way to the room and is on time for his next meeting.

No Bluetooth device paired or connected.

Bluetooth device connected.

Active Bluetooth call.

Bluetooth device paired but not connected.

• Hands-free Profile: (requires a Bluetooth programmable button) initiate or answer a call coming into the mobile device and transition the audio to the Verge 9312 IP phone or vice versa. When using the Verge IP phone as a hands-free device, the cellular calls remain on the mobile device service and do not route through the Allworx server. Allworx applications such as View do not receive information about the calls and, therefore, do not include the calls in the View reports. Additionally, the Call History feature does not see or display these calls.

Example: Mary is in her car talking to a distributor on her mobile device. Mary gets to work and walks to her office. Mary taps the Bluetooth Appearance to activate the Verge 9312 IP phone speaker. The cellular phone call audio transitions from the mobile device to the Verge 9312 IP phone speaker, and Mary finishes her conversation with the distributor in hands-free mode.

The Verge 9312 IP phone automatically connects to and displays the first paired Bluetooth device from the list of all discovered and paired devices. If there was a previous, active connection to a Bluetooth device, the Verge 9312 phone automatically connects to that device, if enabling the device Bluetooth radio and it is within range. To select a different Bluetooth enabled device:

• Allworx System Software 8.2 - turn off the other Bluetooth devices.

• Allworx System Software 8.3 - scroll and select the preferred Bluetooth device.

To pair and connect Bluetooth enabled devices, see “Bluetooth” on page 65 for more information.

• Cell Phone Dialing mode - users can edit a number before placing the call, and requires users to press the send ( ) soft key to place the call.

4.9 Reach Remote Control

Control the Verge IP phone on a Reach device. If an Allworx user has both a Reach device and a Verge IP phone, the device and the phone automatically link together, and then the Allworx User can use the Reach application to control the Verge IP phone using a robust user interface, especially if using a tablet. In this way, the Reach Remote Control enables a desk phone to serve as an executive phone. The Reach Remote Control feature enables users to answer calls on all appearance types.

The audio still comes to/through the Verge IP phone (headset recommended). The Verge IP phone continues to respond to phone button presses.

For more information about using Reach Remote Control, see the Reach User Guide Version 3.0 or higher.

4.10 Electronic Hook Switch (EHS) for Wireless Headsets

Use the call control button on the wireless headset to answer and terminate calls without touching the Verge IP phone. EHS provides communication between a headset and a phone for call control, generally used with wireless headsets to answer or hang up calls. The EHS feature enables Allworx users to remotely receive an indication of an incoming call and tap the headset call control button to: answer or terminate the call.

All Verge IP phones transmit signaling that is compatible with the Plantronics APD-80 adapter module. The APD-80 adapter module works with the Plantronics CS500 and Savi 700 Series headsets and supports full bi-directional EHS with these headsets. Connect the Verge 9312 IP phone to the headset using the APD-80 adapter, and then enable EHS in the phone settings and disable the headset sidetone. Allworx phone users can enable or disable the EHS feature on the phone in the Settings > Phone Preferences > EHS Headset option. Disabled is the default value. If left disabled, the Verge IP phone has one-way EHS communication.

To manage the Sidetone audio feedback for all headsets (except Bluetooth headsets) and handsets, navigate to Settings > Phone Preferences > Headset Sidetone option. Enabled is the default value.
