Using the Basic Features of Your Polycom® CX200 Desktop Phone

Your Polycom CX200 desktop phone is designed to be used like a regular handset, but you place calls using the Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 client window. Calls may be answered using the phone or the Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 client window.

Once installed and configured, the Polycom CX200 desktop phone and Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 work in a tightly integrated manner. Voice input and audio output will be through the Polycom CX200 desktop phone’s handset or speakerphone (or optionally connected headset) whenever Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 is used.

All actions to handle calls—for example, placing, answering, and holding—are performed using the Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 application. Some actions are also performed using only the keys on the Polycom CX200 desktop phone. Other actions use the Polycom CX200 desktop phone keys and the Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 desktop client together.

•Placing a Call
