Handling Calls
Park/Pickup Programmable Configuration
The programmable method of configuration creates park and pickup softkeys or programmable keys that you can configure on the IP phones.
For the 480i, you can set a softkey as "Park" or "Pickup" and then:
•specify a customized label to display on the Phone UI
•specify a value
•specify which line to use
•·specify the state of the park and/or pickup keys
On 480i
On the IP phone UI, the Park/ Pickup feature displays the following:
•When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, the custom label that you configured for the Park softkey displays on the Phone UI.
•After the call is parked, the label that you configured for the Pickup softkey displays on other phones in the network. You can then press the "Pickup" softkey, followed by the applicable value to pickup the call on another phone in your network.
2.On the 480i, the old softkey labeled "Pickup" has been renamed to "Answer". This softkey uses the old functionality - when you pickup the handset, you see a softkey labeled "Answer". You can then press this key to pick up an incoming call. Do no confuse this feature with the new Park/ Pickup configuration feature.
