System Telephone Features
This chapter contains an alphabetical summary of all features that may be provided
on your telephone. You will only be able to use those features that have been
configured on to your telephone by the system administrator.
NOTE:
The features on your phone are set by the service provider. It is possible that
some system features are not provided for your phone. If you do not have a
feature listed in this chapter and would like to have it on your phone, contact your
service provider for help.
NOTE:
This chapter may cover more than one version of Cisco 7960 phone (SCCP or
MGCP). Although the chapter applies to all types, some information may apply
only to a certain phone configuration. The user is alerted to these differences by
an icon which is shown at left. The icon appears in the left margin next to where
the information differs. For how to identify your phone configuration, see
“Identifying Your 7960 Telephone Type” on page 4.
Feature Activation Digit
Some features require you to dial an activating digit followed by a numeric code
(example: 588). The default value for this activating digit is
5
and it is used
throughout this document. However, your system administrator may choose to use
another digit for this function. In that case, substitute your activating digit for the
default. Operation of all features will be exactly the same.
NOTE:
The feature codes (“star codes”) listed in these procedures are the default values
for your phone system at the time of installation. They may be changed by your
service provider. Any list of feature codes given to you by your service provider
should be used in place of the codes listed here.
Abbreviated Dial
This feature lets a you create, modify, delete, verify and use a personal list of up to
100 Abbreviated Dial codes. Abbreviated Dial codes must be entered as two digits
when programming and dialing (Example: enter 04 instead of 4).
