Polycom SoundStation IP 6000 Phone User Guide

Handling Multiple Call Appearances

Your system administrator can set up your phone to have one or more call appearances. If your phone is set up to have multiple call appearances, your phone screen can display information for multiple calls, and you can handle active and held calls at the same time. Your phone can handle a maximum of eight different calls, or eight appearances at one time.

If two are more calls are taking place, the phone displays a counter at the top right of the display. For example, in the following figure, “1/3” indicates that the call to James Lee is the first one out of a total of three.

To display the other two calls on hold, use the scroll keys.

Using Buddy Lists

Note

Monitoring the status of contacts in a buddy list is an optional feature that your

 

system administrator enables, and your system may not support it.

 

 

A buddy list is a list of users/devices whose status—or presence—you can monitor. Your contacts update their presence setting, such as Be right back, Out to lunch, or Busy, and you can view their status in real time from your phone’s Buddy Status screen. If you like, you can block others from monitoring your status.

Updating Presence Settings

Your presence setting indicates your status (either online, busy, be right back, away, out to lunch, offline, or do not disturb). Update your presence setting so that other users can monitor your status from their phones.
