Chapter 2: Setting up the deskphone1
Introduction to 9621G/9641G/9641GS deskphones2
Your deskphone provides many features that include:3
• Viewing and managing your calls, call logs, and contacts list4
• Customizing your deskphone5
• Accessing your voice mail6
• Using integrated WML browser7
You can also attach up to three button modules to your deskphone to expand the available number8
of call appearances and features. Multiple button modules must all be the same type and same9
model. The 9621G model does not provide a port for button module attachment.10
The letter G in a deskphone model name indicates the presence of a built-in Gigabit Ethernet11
adapter that increases the transmission speed of data.12
The 9621G, 9641G, and 9641GS deskphones provide a color LCD display. 9621G deskphones13
have a smaller display area than 9641G deskphones, and do not have a USB interface. 9641GS14
deskphones have a slightly larger display area than the 9641G, and use capacitive touch screen.15
Unless specifically stated in this guide, the three models are essentially the same in terms of16
features and functionality.17
Your administrator might not have configured all functions and features described in this user guide.18

• A text message streaming across the top display line, that also accompanies an audible alert.7
• An audible alert broadcast through the Speaker or the headset if that device is active.8
• An interrupt screen notifying you that you are receiving an audio alert.9
While receiving an audible alert, you can change between the speaker, handset, and headset, can10
stop the transmission of pushed audio content by going on-hook, and can adjust the volume, as you11
normally do during a call.12

Your deskphone includes WML Web browser capability to use additional applications. The14
applications available through the browser vary depending on how your system administrator has15
configured your deskphone. For more information, contact your administrator.16

not see the Browser icon on the Home screen, Web applications are not available for your18

has call recording enabled for the calls made on your deskphone, a beep can be heard into the22
audio stream at regular interval, typically about 15 seconds. The beep indicates that the call is being23

The 9621 IP deskphone does not have a USB interface.8
Avaya offers a PC application Avaya one-X™ Deskphone USB Companion to help set up your USB9
device phone options. Your administrator has certain setup responsibilities and can then help you10
determine the options that are available to you and how to use the tool to set them up.11

the USB device. When you use the USB login, the Log Out menu option is available on the15
menu screen, but does not work when the USB device is inserted. You can log out your phone16
only by removing the USB device.17
If you insert the flash drive into the USB jack, the phone displays either a list of USB actions or18
options, a message that your phone does not support the device, or a message that the phone does19
not have adequate power to support the device. Power supply to the USB interface depends on the20
administration settings and on how you have powered the phone. The phone supports USB drives21
with FAT or FAT32 file systems and does not support USB drives with NTFS file systems and22
multiple LUNs.23

contacts list of your deskphone to your USB device, which automatically creates a formatted file.30
Avaya also provides a spreadsheet tool that uses macros to convert your Outlook contacts into the31
Contacts format that the phone uses. For information on this tool, search for Avaya one-X® USB32
