EMERGENCY DIAL PLAN
Public telephone networks in countries around the world have a single emergency telephone
number (emergency services number), that allows a caller to contact local emergency services
for assistance when required. The emergency telephone number may differ from country to
country. It is typically a three-digit number so that it can be easily remembered and dialed
quickly . Some countries have a different emergency number for each of the dif ferent emergency
services.
Y ou can specify the digit s to dial on the IP phone for contacting emerge ncy services. Once you
specify the emergency number(s) on the phone, you can dial those numbers directly on the
dialpad when required and the phone automatically dials to those emergency services.
You can set the emergency dial plan using the Mitel Web UI only.
Note: Contact your local phone service provider for available emergency numbers in
your area.
The following table describes the default emergency numbers on the IP phones.
EMERGENCY
NUMBERDESCRIPTION
911A United States emergency number.
999A United Kingdom emergency number.
112An international emergency telephone number for GSM mobile phone networks.
In all European Union countries it is also the emergency telephone number for both
mobile and fixed-line telephones.
110A police and/or fire emergency number in Asia, Europe, Middle East, and South
America.

STATE-BASED SOFTKEYS
On the 6869i’s bottom softkeys, you can configure a specific st ate to display when a softkey is

ConnectedThe current line is in an active call (or the call is on hold).
IncomingThe phone is ringing.
OutgoingThe user is dialing a number, or the far-end is ringing.
BusyThe current line is busy because the line is in use or the line is set as DND.
The following table identifies the applicable default states for each softkey type on the IP phone.
In the Mitel Web UI, the operational states for each softkey display as ena bled. To disable a
state, simply uncheck the box for the respective state.
SOFTKEY DISPLAY BEHAVIOR
On the 6869i IP phone, you can configure up to 44 (top) and 24 (bottom) function s on the
softkeys. By default, if you have no softkeys configured on the IP phon e, and you assign softkey
functions to higher number keys in the Mitel Web UI, the key functions automatically appear in
the first available position on the LCD display.
For example, if top softkeys 1 through 44 are set to None, and you set the top softkey 12 as
the following:
Type: Spe e d Dial
Label: Home
Value: 3456
after saving the settings, the “Home” label actually appear s in position 1 of the LCD.
A softkey function of None does not display on the Home screen at all.
The following figures illustrate the above scenario (i.e. the configuration of top softkey 12) and
how it is displayed on the phone:

BLF monitors the status (busy or idle) of extensions on the IP phone.
For example, a Supervisor configures BLFs on his phone for monitoring the status of a
co-worker’s phone use (busy or idle). If the co-worker’s phone is in an idle state, the BLF sof tkey
on the Supervisor’s phone is green. If the co-worker is on a call or when the co-worker picks
up his phone to make a call, the BLF softkey on the Supervisor’s phone turns red, indicating
that the worker’s phone is in use and busy. Additionally, the corresponding softkey LED
illuminates to match the monitored user’s state, either off (idle), or solid (busy).
Note: You can also use a BLF-configured key to automatically dial the BLF-monitored
extension. Contact your System Administrator for more information.

AUTOMATIC CALL DISTRIBUTION (ACD) KEY (FOR SYLANTRO CALL
MANAGERS)
Note: ACD functionality can only be programmed on the top softkeys.
The 6869i and any attached exp ansion modules support Automatic Call Distr ibution (ACD) for
Sylantro call managers. The ACD feature allows the Sylantro call manager to distribute calls
from a queue to registered IP phone users (agents).
To use the ACD feature on an IP phone, you must first configure an ACD softkey or expansion
module key. When you want to subscribe to a queue (in order to receive incoming calls), you
press the ACD softkey and the IP phone UI prompts you to log in.
Available/Unavailable is displayed indicating the current status of the IP phone (specifies if
the IP phone user is available/unavailable to receiv e a ca ll fr om the que u e) .
Additionally , the ACD so f tke y indicates your cu rren t ACD sta tus turning from red (lo gged out)
to yellow (logged in but unavailable) to green (logged in and available), and the corresponding
LED also changes as per the table below:
STATUS: LOGGED IN AND
AVAILABLE
Solid Red LEDBlinking Red LEDNo LED
When you are on an active call, or you miss a call, the server automa tically changes the phone’s
status to unavailable. The server updates its dat abase with this new information and no longer
distributes calls to the phone. The phone remains in this unavailable state until:
•You make yourself available again by pressing the Avail softkey
•An ACD timer expires (set by your System Administrator)
You can also choose to manually change the phone status to unavailable by pressing the
Unavail softkey on the phone.
Note: It is recommended you configure no more than a single ACD softkey or expansion
module key per IP phone.
