Access Buttons 21
16 Speaker button — Enables you to use the speaker phone feature. Press
the Speaker button before you dial a call, when your telephone is
ringing, or while a call is in progress. To turn the speaker off and resume
the conversation, pick up the handset.
17 Volume control buttons — Enables you to adjust the volume of the
ringer, the speaker, or the handset. See Controlling the Volume.
18 Mute button — Use this button to prevent callers from hearing you,
while you can still hear your callers. See Muting Calls.
19 Hands Free button — Allows you to answer internal (intercom) calls
without picking up the handset. An external call (a call from outside your
VCX system) rings to your telephone as usual. See Using the Hands Free
Feature. The light next to the Hands Free button remains red as long as
this option is enabled.
Access Buttons Figure 2 shows the 18 Access buttons.
The column of six buttons on the left side (labeled 1 through 6 in the
figure) have programmed functions that cannot be modified. These
buttons do not have associated indicator (status) lights.
The column of 12 buttons on the right (labeled 7 and 8 in two groups
in the figure) are assigned default functions (described in the
following list) by 3Com. Your administrator can change these defaults
and may allow you to reprogram some or all of the button functions.
Ask your administrator for more information. You can view and
change button assignments through the Telephone User Interface (see
Assigning Model 2102 Access Button Functions Using the TUI) or the
VCX User Interface (see Assigning Access Button Functions Using the
VCX User Interface).
