Multiuser

Menu features

The IP Deskphone menu displays are customized to match the service package of the active account that is accessing the menu. In most cases, menus are accessed from the Idle screen and the primary account is active. For example, you can only use the Retrve context-sensitive soft key to retrieve a parked call if call parking is allowed by the service package of the primary account.

Similarly, accessing the Address Book, either through the corresponding hard key or through the View menu, usually displays the Address Book of the primary account. However, accessing the Address Book in select mode (for example, while dialing, or selecting an item for a speed dial key) accesses the address book of the latest user account used on the address-input screen.

Modifying settings

A number of preferences, in particular Voice Mail and IM settings, are per- account. The main Preferences menu includes an User Settings entry. Selecting this entry prompts you to select a registered account. After selecting an account, a menu appears that lets you modify the settings of that account.

Per-account call notification options

The Call Settings entry in the User Settings menu provides a number of configuration options relating to how incoming calls for a particular account are treated:

what kind of audio alert should be used (ring tone, beep, nothing)

whether the red LED should blink

whether the call should be added to the Incoming Calls log

IM Settings

IM Settings is located under User Settings. Any change in settings on the primary account takes effect immediately. You can also modify settings for a secondary account, but they do not take effect until that account registers as the primary account.
