elected examples for function key programming
This chapter will show you a few examples for customizing function key settings to your needs and preferences,
using the phone's web interface:
•
First example: Extension monitoring and call pickup via one of the phone's freely programmable and self-
labeling function keys with LED.
•
Second example: Extension monitoring and call pickup via a function key on the ET6 expansion module.
•
Third example: Speed dialing with a freely programmable function key with LED.
•
Fourth example: Changing setting of context-sensitive key.
Example 1, Extension monitoring and call pick-up
This feature makes it possible to pick up a call ringing on another extension registered at the same registrar, for
example when the other extension is busy or when the user is absent. The prerequisites for this function are:
◦ It must be supported by the PBX.
◦ The extensions must permit this function. Setting: Phone's web interface >
Identity
(1-12) >
SIP
tab >
"Allow incoming extension monitoring". The default is
on
.
◦ Restricting permission to groups of users by setting an ID: Phone's web interface >
Identity
(1-12) >
SIP
tab > "Extension monitoring group ID": Enter an ID (any character string) into the
textfield. Note: The first character of the ID must not be a '{' curly brace.
◦ The extension to be monitored must be programmed onto one of the freely programmable function
keys with LEDs. In our example, we are monitoring extension 7899 on key P7 which is located on page 1
of the screen.
1.
On the phone's web interface, click on

is 7899.
5.
Under
Short Label Mode
of P7, select if the SmartLabel should be displayed on the screen as text, icon, or
icon and text.
6.
Optional:
In the
Short Text
text field of P7, enter a name or descriptive text. In our example, it is "Tom".
If the text field is empty, the label area will display the number.

For an example of the extension setting on the phone, see "Settings on the phone" on page 77, Fig. 1 to 11.
The LED of key P7 on the phone will now flash red quickly when a call is ringing on 7899 but only if page 1 is on-
screen. If the call is not answered, you can pick it up by pressing key P7. When 7899 is engaged in a call, the key
will glow red steadily.
