90 Model 55i IP Phone User Guide
Line Keys, Programmable Keys, and Softkeys
Park/Pickup Keys
The IP phone has a park and pickup call feature that allows you to park a call and
pickup a call when required. There are two ways a user can configure this feature:
• Using a static configuration
• Using a programmable configuration (using keys)
The IP phone supports the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks,
Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.
The following paragraphs describe the park and pickup methods of configuration on
the IP phones.
Park/Pickup Static Configuration
You can configure a static configuration for parking and picking up a call using the
Aastra Web UI at
Basic Settings-> Preferences .
By entering the appropriate value in the " Park Call " and " Pickup Parked Call "
fields, you tell the phone where to park a live call and where to pickup the parked
call.
On the IP phone UI, the static configuration method displays the following:
• When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, the default label of " Park "
displays on the Phone UI.
• After pressing the " Park " key to park the call, the default label of " Pickup "
displays on the phone UI.
The values you enter in the Aastra Web UI for the Park/Pickup call feature are
dependant on your type of server. The following table provides the values you enter
for the "
Park Call " and " Pickup Parked Call " fields in the Aastra Web UI.
Note: The IP phone accepts both methods of configuration. However, to avoid
redundancy, Aastra Telecom recommends you configure either a static
configuration or a programmable configuration.
