User Guide for the Polycom VVX 1500 C Business Media Phone for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (SIP)

Locking and Unlocking the Phone

Locking your phone is a feature that your system may not support. For more information, see your system administrator.

Your system administrator can set up your phone to automatically lock if the phone hasn’t been used for a certain period of time, as well as block the phone’s browser while the phone is locked.

Lock your phone to do the following:

Prevent unauthorized outgoing calls.

Allow only authorized people to answer calls.

Prevent people from viewing or modifying phone displays or information (for example, menus, directory lists, call records, and Speed Dial Keys).

When your phone is locked:

You can only make an outgoing call to a number from a list of authorized numbers.

You have to enter a password to answer incoming calls.

All keys and soft keys are disabled, except those that allow you to unlock the phone, make an authorized call, redial a number, or view the browser (if enabled).

You unlock the phone by entering your user password. If your phone restarts for any reason while it is locked, it will be locked when the phone starts up again (unless your phone is configured to start up unlocked).

When your phone is locked, the messages “The phone is locked” and “Authorized calls only” scroll on the status bar. Messages that displayed before the phone was locked don’t display.

About Your User Password

You are assigned a user password so you can answer calls from your locked phone and unlock the phone. By default, your user password is 123. You can change your user password at any time.

To change your user password, you need to enter the administrator password. For more information, see your system administrator.

Changing Your User Password

By default, your user password is 123. Change your user password so it’s unique to your phone.
