Chapter 2: Using Your 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone

Introduction

This chapter describes how to make calls, receive calls, retrieve voice mail messages, and log off your 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone. The telephone Line/Feature buttons that assist in call handling are also covered in this chapter.

Call Appearances

In the Phone application, a call appearance, by default, takes up the entire display width, while administered Feature buttons take up half the display width. When a call appearance is full-width, use the Line/Feature buttons on either side of that row to select that call appearance, and usually, all associated messages. When a call appearance is half-width, for example, the full width default has been changed, use only the Line/Feature buttons on the appropriate side of that row to select that call appearance. In the case of half-width call appearances, call-associated messages show on the top display line instead of on that row. See

Chapter 6: 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone Options for information about setting the call appearance width.

Depending on how your phone is administered, you might have some blank Line/Feature button labels. Pressing a Line/Feature button associated with a blank label has no effect.

Making Calls

You have several ways of making calls. You can:

●lift the handset,

●activate a headset if one is connected to your phone,

●use the Speaker, or

●use an automatic dial feature like speed dial, redial, or abbreviated dialing. This section describes all of these calling methods.

Note:

You can set an option for whether the Phone screen displays when you make an outgoing call, or whether the current screen remains displayed. See Application Options in Chapter 6: 4620/4620SW/4621SW IP Telephone Options for details.
