Side Car Keys
Up to two side cars can be connected to the phone (none for the OBi1022 and OBi2000 Series) by daisy chaining. Each
side car presents 16 additional feature keys. The side car attached directly to the phone is referred to as Side Car 1; the
side car attached to Side Car 1 is referred to as Side Car 2.The feature keys are referred to as SC1K1
–
SC1K16 and
SC2K1
–
SC2K16 respectively.
Note: The OBi2000 Series do not support any side car at this time
Feature Key Configuration Parameters
Each feature key can be configured independently. The configuration of each feature key comprises of the following set
of parameters:
•
Function
: Select the function to assign to this feature key
•
Service
: The service to bind the key to. Required for ACD Sign On/Off, Busy Lamp Field, Call Park Monitor,
Disposition Code, Hoteling, Exec Filter On/Off, Exec Assistant, Line Monitor, Message Status, Presence Monitor, and
Security Class. Optional for Block Anonymous Call, Block Caller ID, Call Appearance, Call Forward, Do Not Disturb,
Transfer, and Speed Dial. Not used otherwise.
•
Number
: Required for BLF, Call Park Monitor, Presence Monitor, and Speed Dial. Optional for Transfer and
Blind Transfer
•
Name
: Optional for all functions. It is used as a nickname to refer to the entity specified in the
Number
parameter.
•
MaxCalls
: Maximum number of calls to overload on the key. This is only applicable if the function is Call
Appearance (therefore, this parameter is not available under Programmable Keys and Side Car Keys).
•
Group
: Reserved for future use.
It is very common to have multiple feature keys defined with the same function, such as Call Appearance and Speed
Dial. It is not advisable to have a particular monitor function with the same monitored entity configured on more than
one key. For example do not assign more than one BLF key to monitor the same extension, or assign more than one
Presence Monitor key to monitor the same buddy, or assign more than one Message Status key to monitor the same
mailbox, etc. The reason is that the phone may only update just one of keys when the status of the monitored entity is
changed.

Call Key. Each call carried out on the phone must be assigned a call key. That is, you will need at least one Call Key to
make or receive a call. Each Call Key can hold exactly one call. Usually there are at least a few Call Keys defined on the
