The Home Screen

The Home screen consists of three pages and displays

●the available call appearance/feature buttons

●caller ID information

●the current date and time

●softkeys

●information provided by the Avaya call processing system

Usually, you use the Home screen to perform standard call handling. When the 2420 telephone

operates in normal display mode, eight call appearance/feature buttons appear on each page of

the Home screen. See Figure 2.

Note:

Note: In Call Center Mode, 12 call appearance/feature button labels appear on each of

the first two pages of the Home Screen. Four call appearance/feature buttons

with shortened labels rather than softkey labels appear at the bottom of pages 1

and 2. The softkey labels appear on page 3 of the Home Screen in Call Center

Mode. For information about Call Center Mode, see Display Mode (Call Center

Mode) on page 47.

Your call processing system provides the date and time information. This information appears

below the call appearance/feature button area when the telephone is idle.

Note:

Note: When the 2420 telephone receives power, several minutes might elapse before

the time and date appear on the screen. This situation occurs after a power

outage or when you connect the 2420 telephone to the jack. If an incorrect date

and time appear, contact your system manager.

If you program your 2420 telephone to log unanswered, incoming calls, the missed calls counter

appears below the date and time. This counter displays the number of missed calls. Whenever

you access the Call Log Summary screen to view the unanswered, incoming call information in

the call log, the counter is reset to 0. See The Call Log Screens on page29 for more

information.
