Introducing your M5 Phone
Getting to Know Your Phone
Your M5 phone provides voice communication over a network. The
phone functions much like a traditional phone, allowing you to place and
receive calls. It also supports features such as call forwarding, redialing,
speed dialing, transferring, conferencing, and accessing voicemail. Your
IP phone has several key components, illustrated below:
The 7960 and 7961 have six line buttons;
the 7940 and 7941 each have two.

inbound call history and allows you to call back your recent missed calls.

history and allows you to redial your recently placed calls.

The Personal Phonebook can be created through the phone (see below)

list and displaying a known caller’s name on screen for inbound calls.
