Softkey Menu (Administrator Phone)

The Softkey Menu allows you to configure the softkeys on the administrator phone. Softkeys function exactly like the hard keys on your phone, except they are programmable. When you press a softkey on your IP phone, an action takes place. For example, when you press the DND softkey, you enable Do Not Disturb on your phone.

The Softkey Menu for the administrator allows you to perform the following:

Configure/edit default softkey settings for the administrator IP phone. You can also reset these softkeys to their default values if required. The tabs that display in this menu are dependant on the phone model of your administrator phone. For example, for a 55i, 57i, and 57i CT, two tabs display as “Softkeys” and “Top Softkeys” since you can configure the top and bottom softkeys on these models.

(For phone models that allow you to configure labels for the softkeys) Print insert labels to place on the IP phone front panel. From the softkey menu, after you configure a softkey with a label, you can print out the label on a pre-formatted template. Once you print this out, you can place the insert in the appropriate location on the front panel of the phone. This insert identifies the softkey labels you just created.

When you select a softkey to configure, options are organized by type into the following categories:

Call Settings Softkeys - used to specify how inbound/outbound calls are handled. For example, Do Not Disturb, or Call Forwarding.

Applications Softkeys - used to access applications (Voicemail) or phone menus (the Service menu)

Operator Softkeys - (Operator only) used to define Operator status and schedules.
