Hot Desking
Hot Desking allows you to log into the telephone system from any phone designated as a Hot
Desk phone. When you log in at the phone using your assigned Hot Desk User Extension
Number, the phone assumes all your speed dials, features keys, call forwarding setup, and line
appearances - even your language preference for the display. Any changes you make to the
phone while you are logged in--for example, adding a speed dial--are saved to your personal
profile. Logging in activates your profile on any phone that supports Hot Desking.
When you log in as a hot desk user, Call History data is updated for you. You do not see any call
logs for the phones registered DN; you only see your history data. When you log out, the
registered DNs history data is displayed. To access your voice mail when you are logged in as a
hot desk user, you must log in to your voice mail.
To log into a Hot Desking phone (the phone must be idle):
1. Press the key you have programmed to HotDesking.
2. Press the Login key.
3. Using the phone keys, enter your Hot Desk User Extension Number, and then press OK.
4. Enter your pin number and press OK.
While logged in as a hot desk user, the phone status line shows the Hot Desk icon.
To log out of Hot Desking phone (the phone must be idle):
1. Press the key you have programmed to HotDesking.
2. Press the Logout command key.
3. Press the Confirm command key.
Note: Your profile can only be active on one phone at a time. If you log in from another phone
without logging out from the first one, the system will automatically deactivate your profile on
the first phone.
Hot Desk Remote Logout
A user who has forgotten to log out of a Hot Desking phone can be logged out from a phone that
is configured to allow Hot Desk Remote Logout.
Note: This feature must be allowed by your System Administrator via the Class of Service.
