Purpose

 

 

Command Buttons

The buttons on the main screen provide a quick and easy way

 

to perform the various system functions. There are several

 

function buttons that are displayed above the Call List on the

 

main screen. The behavior of these buttons is context

 

sensitive. This means that depending on the state of the calls

 

that are being controlled by the CAS software, certain buttons

 

may be enabled or disabled and the operation that a button

 

performs may also change. For example, the Answer button is

 

only enabled if there is an incoming call. If there is a call active

 

the Answer button will appear as a Release button and

 

pressing it will terminate the call.

 

 

Call List

The Call List is located at the top of the main window directly

 

below the main menu. The Call List provides caller ID

 

information (name and number), call status, and call duration

 

for all of the calls that are currently present on your phone.

 

There can be more than one call shown in the call list. The

 

number of calls in the list corresponds to the number of calls

 

that currently exist on your phone. The maximum number of

 

calls that can be displayed in the call list is dependent on the

 

number of access lines that are assigned to your phone. By

 

default the number of lines is three.

 

 

Directory List

The tabs on the Directory List provide a quick and easy way to

 

organize the names in the directory. There are three different

 

tabs that can be used to create different views of the

 

directory.

 

Main Directory tab

 

Lists all of the directory entries except for those that have been

 

added to the hidden list.

 

Quick List tab

 

Lists the directory entries that have been added to the Quick

 

List. The Quick List gives you the ability to put frequently called

 

users into a separate, easily searchable list.
