Configuring IM automatic pop-up
You can configure the IP Deskphone to automatically display an incoming new IM as a pop-
up. The IM pops up when the IP Deskphone is idle or while on a call. You can disable the IM
pop-up feature.
Note:
An IM pop-up does not occur if you are navigating the IM screens or navigating the menu
structure in general. When this exception occurs, the IM goes directly to the IM Inbox, and
the blue LED activates.
