Each line on the phone can be configured to have
one or more call appearances. More than one
call appearance is useful if there is an active call
and an incoming call arrives on the same line.
In the example shown, extension 2020 is in an
outbound call with 2024. The second diagram
shows an incoming call from John Brown. To
answer this incoming call, put the original call on
Hold or press the
Soft key labels will be updated on the display
with these options:

1. Answr the incoming call.

2. Reject the incoming call.

3. Forward the incoming call to another exten-

sion.
Answering the incoming call places the original
call on Hold and refreshes the soft key labels as
indicated (third illustration). If more than one
call appearance is in use, one will appear on the
display and the total number will be indicated by
a counter at the top right corner of the display.
For example “2/3” indicates that the highlighted
call is the second one out of a total of three.

In the example case illustrated, another out­bound call can be placed on the same first line.
Press Hold during the first call and press NewCall

Shared Lines

VoIPon www.voipon.co.uk [e-mail] Tel: [phone] Fax: [phone]

The phone supports shared lines**. A
shared line is indicated by a different
line icon. In the diagram, the first line is
private and the second line is shared. If
two phones share a line, an incoming call
to that number will cause both phones to
ring. The call can be answered on either
phone but not both.

If a shared line is in use on one of the
phones, it cannot be used on the other
one. The shared line icon changes to a
moving icon and the line LED turns red
when the line is in use remotely.

Calls on shared lines can be transferred,
put on hold, or added to a conference.

Voice Mail

Received messages will be indicated by a
flashing Message Waiting Indicator LED
on the front of the phone and optionally a
visual notification on the display.

Individual line indicators reflect voice or
text messages left on that line (useful if
multiple lines are in use).

**

Shared lines are an optional feature con­figured on the server and may not be sup­ported on your particular system. Contact
your system administrator to find out.

A stutter dial tone in place of normal dial
tone is used to indicate that one or more
voice messages are waiting at the message
center.
