Using Hot Desking
The Hot Desking feature allows users to share phones or temporarily move to other phones and
yet maintain their personal identity and preferred phone configuration settings.
If your administrator has set you up with a Hot Desking Profile, you can log on to any Hot Desk-
enabled base phone using the Hot Desk feature code (default is 348), your assigned Hot Desk
Profile extension number, and your assigned Hot Desk Profile passcode. The system will then
apply your phone profile – phone settings such as extension (intercom directory) number, class-
of-service, language, programmable buttons, etc. – to the phone.
To log on to a Hot Desk-enabled base phone:
1.
At a Hot Desk-enabled base phone, do one of the following:
Press the Hot Desk feature button (if one is programmed on the phone).
Press the LOGIN menu button (on six-line display phones).
Dial
348
.
Display phones show ENTER HOT DESK EXTENSION.
2.
Dial your assigned Hot Desk extension number. Display phones show ENTER
PASSCODE.
3.
Dial your assigned Hot Desk passcode. Display phones show HOT DESK SESSION
ACTIVATED for five seconds.
To log off of a Hot Desk session:
Do one of the following:
Press the Hot Desk feature button (if one is programmed on the phone).
Press the LOGOUT menu button (on six-line display phones).
Dial

Display phones show HOT DESK SESSION TERMINATED for five seconds.
If you forget to log off and then attempt to log on elsewhere, the system automatically logs you
off of the original phone so that you can log on to the new phone.
