call forwarding, see “Forwarding calls” on page 15-3.
QUse my default station. Your default station remains ViewPoint’s associated
phone. Whenever you use a ViewPoint command that requires the phone—for
example, to play a voice message—ViewPoint uses your default station. Choose
this option only if your default station is nearby.
QI am not near a TeleVantage phone. You log on with station ID 0, meaning that
ViewPoint is not associated with a phone. ViewPoint commands that require a
phone—for example, placing a call—are unavailable.

title bar displays “No associated phone” as a reminder.

Logging on with new logon options
You can log on as a different user, or with a different associated phone, without exiting and
restarting the ViewPoint program. This feature makes it easy to log on to another user’s account

user’s account, you must know the other user’s password.

ViewPoint Log On dialog box opens. See “Logging on to ViewPoint” on page 8-3.
To change ViewPoint’s associated phone, choose File > Use a different station. The
