Refer to these sections for information about the impact of power outages and other devices on your
conference station.
Power Outage
Your accessibility to emergency service through the phone is dependent on the phone being powered.
If there is an interruption in the power supply, Service and Emergency Calling Service dialing will not
function until power is restored. In the case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or
reconfigure equipment before using the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing.
Using External Devices
The following information applies when you use external devices with the conference station:
Cisco recommends the use of good quality external devices (such as headsets) that are shielded against
unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals.
Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as mobile phones
or two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, Cisco recommends that you take
one or more of the following actions:
• Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
• Route the external device cables away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
• Use shielded cables for the external device, or use cables with a better shield and connector.
• Shorten the length of the external device cable.
• Apply ferrites or other such devices on the cables for the external device.
2OL-11559-02
Page 11
Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of the system because Cisco has no control over the quality
of external devices, cables, and connectors. The system will perform adequately when suitable devices
are attached using good quality cables and connectors.
CautionIn European Union countries, use only external speakers and microphones that are fully
compliant with the EMC Directive [89/336/EC].

Registering with TAPS
After the conference station is connected to the network, your system administrator might ask you to
auto-register the conference station using TAPS (Tool for Auto-Registered Phones Support). TAPS
might be used either for a new conference station or to replace an existing conference station. To
register with TAPS, activate the conference station, enter the TAPS extension provided by your system
administrator, and follow the voice prompts. You might need to enter your entire extension, including
the area code. After the conference station displays a confirmation message, hang up. The
conference
station will re-start.

Making Conference Calls
Your conference station allows you to combine three or more separate calls into one conversation,
creating a conference call.
Understanding Types of Conference Calls
There are two types of conference calls: Standard and Meet-Me.
Standard Conference Calls
You can create a standard conference in different ways, depending on your needs and the softkeys
available on the conference station:
• Confrn—Use this softkey to establish a standard conference by calling each participant. Standard
conference calling is a default feature available on most conference stations.
• cBarge—Use this softkey to add yourself to an existing call on a shared line and to turn the call
into a standard conference call. This feature is available only on conference stations that use a
shared line.
For additional instructions, see Starting and Joining a Standard Conference, page 21.

Meet-Me Conference Calls
You can create a Meet-Me conference by calling the Meet-Me conference station number at a specified
time. For additional instructions, see
Starting or Joining a Meet-Me Conference Call, page 22.

connect to the call.
Using a Shared Line
Your system administrator might ask you to use a shared line if you:
• Have multiple conference stations and want one conference station number
• Share call-handling tasks with coworkers
• Handle calls on behalf of a manager
Understanding Shared Lines
Remote-in-Use Icon
The remote-in-use icon appears when another conference station that shares your line has a
connected call. You can place and receive calls as usual on the shared line, even when the remote-in-use
icon appears.
Sharing Call Information and Barging
Conference stations that share a line each display information about calls that are placed and received
on the shared line. This information might include caller ID and call duration.
When call information is visible in this way, you and coworkers who share a line can add yourselves
to calls using either Barge or cBarge. See
Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7937G Phone Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.025
Adding Yourself to a Shared-Line Call, page 26.
Page 34
Privacy
If you do not want coworkers who share your line to see information about your calls, enable the
Privacy feature. The Privacy feature also prevents coworkers from barging your calls. See
Others from Viewing or Barging a Shared-Line Call, page 27.
NoteThe maximum number of calls that a shared line supports can vary by conference station.
Preventing
Adding Yourself to a Shared-Line Call
Depending on how the conference station is configured, you can add yourself to a call on a shared line
using either Barge or cBarge.
If you want to...Then...
See if the shared line is
in use

Leave a barged callHang up.
Look for a remote-in-use icon on the lower left of the conference
station display.
1. Highlight a remote-in-use call.
2. Press Barge. (You may need to press the more softkey to see Barge.)
Other parties hear a beep tone announcing your presence.
1. Highlight a remote-in-use call.
2. Press cBarge. (You may need to press the more softkey to see cBarge.)
Other parties hear a tone and brief audio interruption, and call
information changes on the conference station screen.
Barge the call using cBarge, if available.
Unlike Barge, cBarge converts the call into a standard conference call,
allowing you to add new participants. See
page 20.
If you hang up after using Barge, the remaining parties hear a disconnect
tone and the original call continues.
If you hang up after using cBarge, the call remains a conference call
(provided at least three participants remain on the line).
Making Conference Calls,
Tips
• If a conference station that is using the shared line has Privacy enabled, call information and barge
softkeys will not appear on the other conference stations that share the line.
• You will be disconnected from a call that you have joined using Barge if the call is put on hold,
transferred, or turned into a conference call.
26OL-11559-02
Page 35
Preventing Others from Viewing or Barging a Shared-Line Call
If you share a conference station line, you can use the Privacy feature to prevent others who share the
line from viewing or barging (adding themselves to) your calls. Your system administrator must
configure the Privacy feature for you.

next to your directory number on the main display
Tip
• If the conference station that shares your line has Privacy enabled, you can make and receive calls
using the shared line as usual.
Tracing Suspicious Calls
If you receive suspicious or malicious calls, your system administrator can add the Malicious Call
Identification (MCID) feature to your conference station. This feature enables you to identify an active
call as suspicious, which initiates a series of automated tracking and notification messages.
If you want to...Then...
Notify your system
administrator about a
suspicious or harassing call
Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7937G Phone Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.027
Press MCID.
Your conference station plays a tone and displays the message,
“MCID
successful.”
Page 36
Using Cisco Extension Mobility
Cisco Extension Mobility (EM) allows you to temporarily configure a conference station as your own.
Once you log in to EM, the conference station adopts your user profile, including the conference
station line, features, established services, and web-based settings. Your system administrator must
configure EM for you.
If you want to...Then...
Log on to EM1. Choose > Services > EM Service (name can vary).
2. Enter your userID and PIN (provided by your system administrator).
3. If prompted, select a device profile.
Log off of EM1. Choose > Services > EM Service (name can vary).
2. When prompted to log out, press Yes.
Tips
• EM automatically logs you out after a certain amount of time. This time limit is established by
your system administrator.
• Changes that you make to your EM profile (from your User Options web pages) take effect the
next time that you log on to EM on a conference station.
• Settings that are controlled only on the conference station are not maintained in your EM profile.
Using AutoAnswer
When AutoAnswer is enabled, your conference station answers incoming calls automatically after a
few rings. Your system administrator configures AutoAnswer to use the conference station. You might
use AutoAnswer if you receive a high volume of incoming calls.

Ask your system administrator to
configure your line to support more
calls.
First make sure that all your speed dial
entries are assigned.
If you need additional speed dials, try

calls without using the transfer
feature.
• Call Pickup to answer calls ringing
on another phone.
• A shared line to view or join
coworkers’ calls.
• Cisco Extension Mobility to apply
the conference station number and
user profile to a shared conference
station.
