Preselect mode determines the phone’s behaviour when a call is active, and another call is ringing. If the parameter is set to "Single button", the user can accept the call a single press on the line key. If it is set to "Preselection", the user must first press the line key to select it and then press it a second time to accept the call. In both cases, the options for a ringing call are presented to the user: "Accept", "Reject", "Deflect".
Preselect timer sets the timeout for an incoming call. After the timeout has expired, the call is no longer available.
With firmware V2, call bridging is available. When Bridging enabled is activated, the user may join into an existing call on a shared line by pressing the corresponding line key. On key press, the OpenScape Voice builds a server based conference from the existing call parties and the user. If the call has already been in a server based conference, the user is added to this conference.
Remark: This is a shared line only feature and not relevant for the MAA scenario.
Line Preview
The line preview settings are related to a specific FPK function. This FPK function enables the preview mode, which allows the user to preview a line before using it. When preview mode is active, the line keys behave similar to when the keyset configuration is set to preselection for line keys. On pressing the line key, the call activity on the corresponding line is shown. Unlike with a preselected line, there will be no change to the phone’s current line connections. The LED indicates whether line preview is active or not.
The information shown to the user depends on the ring/alert configuration for the line in question. If the line is configured to alert only, the preview will only show the state of the call, not the identity of the call party. If the line is configured to ring, the identity of the call party will be revealed.
The preview mode can be configured as temporary or as permanent. If System > Features > Keyset operation > Preview mode is disabled, preview mode will end when the user uses the previewed line, or a new call is started in any other way, or if the focus is changed away from call view. If the parame- ter is enabled, preview mode remains active until the user cancels it by pressing the key again.
The Preview timer parameter determines the time span during which the line preview will remain on the screen.
A dedicated line preview FPK can be administrated.
The menu can be accessed using the Web Based Management (WBM) or the local user menu at the phone. The location is:
System > Features > Program keys > Preview
