Basic Features
Installing the IP Phone and Connecting to the Network
1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Network port (left port) on the phone. The other end of the Ethernet cable must be plugged into a powered Ethernet jack. All VoIP-capable Ethernet jacks are marked with a red dot.
2. Connect the handset to its respective port.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable from your Desktop PC to the Access Port on the IP Phone (right port -
optional).
4. Connect the power plug to the DC48V AC Adapter port (optional).
Note: Before successfully installing the phone, the system administrator must prepare the network for
the phone.
Placing a Call
There are three options for placing a new call.
Lift the handset and dial the number.
Press the NewCall soft key and dial the number.
Press a two-digit Speed Dial index code and press the AbbrDial soft key.
Internal Extension:
Dial the 4-digit extension
External Local Call:
Dial 3 + the entire 7-digit phone number
Long Distance:
Dial 3 + 1 the entire 10-digit phone number (area code + numbe r)
Notes: After you press the 3 (for an outside line) you will hear a dial tone again to let you know you are
accessing an external line.

the call.

to make the call or press the NewCall soft key. If you do not hear a dial tone, press an available line button to begin to make the call (the call will dial with the speakerphone on).

Press the Answer soft key.
End a Call
There are two options for ending a call.

Press the EndCall soft key and hang up.
Additional Call Handling
Each phone line you have available can handle up to six individual calls. Therefore, it is possible that you will have a call in progress and receive another call on the same line. Or you could have a call in progress and decide to call someone else to confirm a piece of information, only to return to your original call. You can also use the additional call handling feature in order to set up a three- or four-way conference call.
Answering an additional call while a call is in progress
If this occurs, your handset/headset will beep and the additional call will appear o n the LCD panel on your phone.
Step 1) Use the SCROLL buttons to scroll to that call and then press the Answer soft key. Step 2) Your original call will be placed on hold while you are talking to the second caller. Step 3) If the third party hangs up, you will automatically be reconnected to your original call. Step 4) Otherwise, you can press the EndCall soft key on the third party, which will also
automatically reconnect you to your original call.
Step 5) Finally, you can use the SCROLL button to alternate between calls. You will need to scroll to
each call and then press the Resume soft key to reconnect to that call. The other caller will be placed on hold.
Making a call while a call is in progress
If you are in the middle of a call and want to talk to another party briefly while still being connected to your original second party, then you can use the same line to dial out an additional call. You can make up to six calls on each line you have available. .
Step 1) Press the HOLD button to place your original call on hold. Step 2) Press the NewCall soft key. Step 3) Dial the number of the additional party. Step 4) You should now be connected to your third party. Your second party will be placed on hold
while you interact with the third party. You can reconnect to your second party by using the SCROLL buttons and the Resume soft key.
Notes: Only one call can be “active” at any given time. All other calls are automatically placed on hold. To instantly create a conference call between three or more parties (yourself included), press the
more soft key followed by the Join soft key. This will automatically create a conference with all the parties that are connected (see the Conference Call section for more details).
