Polycom IP 600 SIP manual Shared Lines, Voicemail and Voice and Text Messaging

Shared Lines

The telephone supports shared lines**. A shared line is indicated by a different line icon. In the diagram, the first line is private and the second line is shared. If two telephones share a line, an incoming call to that number will cause both telephones to ring. The call can be answered on either telephone but not both.

If a shared line is in use on one of the tele- phones, it cannot be used on the other one. The shared line icon changes to a moving icon and the line LED turns red when the line is in use remotely.

Calls on shared lines can be transferred, put on hold, or added to a conference.

**Shared lines are an optional feature configured on the server and may not be supported on your particular system. Contact your System Administrator to find out.

Voicemail and Voice and Text Messaging

Users can send and receive both Voice* and Text messages on the telephone. Received messages will be indicated by a flashing Message Waiting Indicator LED on the front of the telephone and optionally a visual notification on the display.

Individual line indicators reflect voice or text messages left on that line (useful if multiple lines are in use).

A stutter dial tone in place of normal dial tone is used to indicate that one or more voice messages are waiting at the message center.

SIP Instant (Text) Messaging is supported in real-time. Users can send and receive text messages using their telephones.
