Making Calls with Multiple Lines

Incoming Call

Incoming calls are notified as known from a single user phone. Additional information about the af- fected line is shown in the incoming call popup and the line FPK LED. The user can pick up the call using the standard mechanism; additionally, the line key can be used to pick up the call by a single press. Please note that two key presses are needed in case the key is configured to ‘Preselect mode’ (for details, please refer to [3]).

The phone’s behaviour for multiple incoming calls depends on the administrative setting. See ‘Terminating line preference’ for seizing lines.

Making calls

In a single user scenario, the phone will always use the configured user number to make an outgoing call. In a multi user scenario, the phone must know which call number should be used, as the appropri- ate line must be seized. Line seizure can be done manually or automatically. The phone’s behaviour depends on the administrative configuration. See ‘Originating line preference’ for more details.
