Application buttons, navigation and softkeys
The display screen has three visible application lines that you use to view and manage your calls,
your contacts, your call log, and your options and settings.
• Press the
Phone
button to view your calls.
• Press the
Contacts
button to view your Contacts list.
• Press the
Call Log
button to see a list of your most recent incoming and outgoing calls.
At any time, one of the application lines is highlighted - with white text on a black background. This is
the selected line. Use the Up and Down arrows on the navigation keys to select a line by scrolling to
it.
The four softkey labels at the bottom of the screen go with the softkeys directly below the screen.
They show the available actions for the selected line. Pressing a softkey carries out the action
shown on the softkey label.
The
OK
button is another shortcut that carries out the default action on the selected line. For
example, when you select (highlight) an entry in your Contacts list, pressing
OK
places a call to
that person.
Aux buttons
Your phone has two rows of extra, auxiliary buttons, or “Aux buttons” below the softkeys. You can
use the Aux buttons for call management, speed dial buttons, or features. The Aux buttons go with
the “Aux button labels” on the bottom two rows of the screen. The Aux button labels show the
function of each of the Aux buttons.
There are two sets, or pages, of Aux buttons. Use the
Aux Shift
button, located to the right of the
Aux button labels, to switch between the two pages of Aux buttons.
The particular features available on your Aux buttons depend on how your system administrator
has set up your phone. For example, in addition to bridged extensions on your Aux buttons, your
administrator may also assign frequently-used features like Send All Calls, Directory/Next/Make
Call, or Call Forwarding to Aux buttons.
Each Aux button has an LED, which is illuminated if a call appearance or feature assigned to that
button is active. The
Aux Shift
button also has an LED, which is illuminated if there is a call on
one of the Aux buttons on the alternate, "hidden" page.
Aux Buttons and Bridged Lines
You can use the Aux buttons to monitor and manage extensions other than your own. Other people's
extensions that you manage from your phone are called bridged lines. If an Aux button is associated
with a bridged line, you can press the Aux button to select it as you would with a regular call
appearance.
Whenever you need to access a bridged line just press the corresponding Aux button.
• If a line is on Hold, pressing the Aux button resumes the call.
• If a line is ringing, pressing the Aux button answers the call.
• If your boss or someone else for whom you have a bridged extension is on the line (Aux button
LED is lighted), you can press that Aux button to join the call. For example, when the bridged
extension is in use, and you get an incoming call to that same line, you can conference the
caller into the existing call.
The icon on the Aux button label for a bridged call appearance shows the status of that call
appearance. An idle call icon means that there is no current call on that line. An in-use bridged call
icon means that the owner of the line is using it.
Use the Aux button for anything you need to do with a bridged line - to answer a call, to resume a
call on hold, or to join an existing call. Use the Aux button LED and the icon on the Aux button
label to view the status of a bridged line.
Using the Phone button to get to your own lines
If a bridged call appearance is selected, press the
Phone
button to display your own lines.
