Logging in yourself or another user on the SIP system telephone
Use the following steps to log out yourself or another user (if the other user
has forgotten to log out).
The telephone will restart and load the user interface to login.
What happens if someone calls me and I am not logged in to a SIP system
telephone?
When you are logged out, SIP system telephones offer functions comparable
to the “Call protection” feature. When a person calls you, he/she hears the
ring tone. This call will be saved in your call list. The next time you log in to
your SIP system telephone, you can query the call list and call the person
back.
Can I make a call from a SIP system telephone that is logged out?
No, SIP system telephones that are logged out cannot be used to make calls,
with one exception:
Emergency numbers
can be dialled.
Logging in and out with the Forum CTI
If you use the
Forum CTI
programme package at your desk, you can log in to
any available SIP system telephone via this programme. You can configure the
Forum CTI
so that when you launch the programme you are automatically
logged in to a SIP system telephone. This programme also offers logging out
of a SIP system telephone. For more details, please refer to the online help of
the
Forum CTI
.
