Operational Features

Switch Focus to Ringing Line

An Administrator or User can control the behavior of the phone when it receives an incoming call when it is already in a connected call. By default, the phone switches focus to the ringing line to enable the user to see who is calling them.

You can turn off this functionality so that the phone now stays focused on the connected call. You can do this using the “switch focus to ringing line” parameter in the configuration files or the Aastra Web UI.

Note:

If you configure the BLF/Xfer key(s) and/or Speeddial/Xfer key(s) on the phone, you can enable or disable the switching of the user interface focus to ringing line while the phone is in the connected state.
