Troubleshooting: Why Can’t I Access a Certain View?

The views you can access depend on the number of calls your phone has, and if your phone has an active call. If your phone is idle, you can access Home and Lines view. If your phone has one call only—and it is active—you can access Home, Lines, and Active Call view. If your phone has multiple calls, or one held call, you can access Home, Lines, and Calls view.

At the top of each view is a status bar, displayed next. The status bar displays the date and time, your phone line—depending what view you are in, and icons that you can tap to access messages or recent calls. When your phone has information you should know about, icons and messages scroll together with the date, under the time display. If you have a VVX 600, additional icons might display in the status bar, such as Do Not Disturb (DND) and Warning icons, which you can tap.
