Enabling/disabling EC500
and maintaining security
Introduction
After enabling EC500 for the first time, follow the guidelines and procedures in this
chapter to enable/disable your cell phone on a regular basis.
■
Enable EC500 when you want to answer calls placed to your office number
on your cell phone (for example, while you are out of the office during
business hours).
■
Disable EC500 when you want calls to your office number to ring only in
the office at your desk, rather than also ringing your cell phone.
As a rule, you should disable EC500 before shutting your cell phone off; that way,
voice messages go directly to your corporate voice mail system.
Changing your station security code is important for security, and is also covered
in this chapter.
Enabling EC500
To enable specific EC500 extensions, see "Enabling/disabling an individual
EC500 extension" on page 48 .
Enabling EC500 via the feature status button
on your office telephone
You can enable EC500 via an administered feature button. For this option to be
available, your office telephone must support administrable feature buttons and
enhanced EC500 must be enabled.
The number of button-pushes required to enable this feature depends upon the
current state of the feature (enabled or disabled) and whether the optional EC500
timer is administered. See
Table 1 on page 30 .
