Your phone must be connected to a network and configured to connect to a call control system. The phones support many functions and features, depending on the call control system. Your phone might not have all functions available, based on the way your administrator has set it up.
When you add features to your phone, some features require a line button. But each line button on your phone can support only one function (a line, a speed dial, or a feature). If your phone's line buttons are already in use, your phone won't display any additional features.

Coworker Line Status
You can set up line keys on your phone to monitor coworkers' lines. This feature is useful if you routinely handle calls for coworkers and need to see if they are available to answer calls. The monitoring line keys function as Busy Lamp Field (BLF) keys. A BLF is an LED that changes color to indicate the status of the monitored line.
The following table describes the LED status:
Table 2: BLF Key LED Status
LED Color
Green
Red
Blinking red
Amber
Meaning
The monitored line is available.
The monitored line is busy.
The monitored line is ringing.
Error in BLF key configuration.
Your administrator performs the necessary setup on the server and for the phone to allow you to monitor the desired lines.
You can configure monitoring on your phone in two ways:
• You can configure monitoring of an individual user's line.
• If your administrator has set up a BLF list for you, you can activate or deactivate monitoring of the entire list. The BLF list is the list of users whose lines you can monitor. The phone monitors each user on a separate line key. The phone assigns available line keys for monitoring, automatically.
With the appropriate configuration, you can use the BLF keys to call the monitored line (speed dial), and to answer incoming calls to the monitored line (call pickup).
When the configuration is complete, the icon in the BLF key label indicates the combination of features configured on the key:

BLF and Speed Dial BLF and Call Pickup BLF, Speed Dial, and Call Pickup
Activate or Deactivate Monitoring of the BLF List
If your administrator has configured a Busy Lamp Field (BLF) list for you, you can activate or deactivate monitoring of the entire BLF list. The phone monitors each user on a separate line key. When you activate monitoring, the phone assigns available line keys in sequence to monitor the BLF list entries.
The BLF list keys function in the same way as individual BLF keys. See
Coworker Line Status, on page 12
for details. When you activate monitoring, the phone starts showing the status of the monitored lines on the
BLF list keys. You can use each BLF list key to call the monitored line (speed dial), and to answer incoming calls to the monitored line (call pickup).
Note The sequential order of the users in the BLF list is set by your administrator. The corresponding BLF list keys always maintain this sequential order. You can choose to configure another feature such as speed dial on a
BLF list key at any time. However, it renders the line key unavailable for the BLF list.
Whenever you make any change to line key configurations, the phone redoes the BLF list key assignment taking the change into account. The phone only assigns available line keys, and in the same sequential order, every time. This can result in changes in the positions of BLF list keys.
The phone monitors as many users as possible with the available line keys. You can make more line keys available for monitoring the list by removing features configured on line keys. See
Configured on a Line Key, on page 15
for details.
Before you begin
Your administrator configures the BLF list.

• When BLF list is set to Hide , monitoring is deactivated.
Press Set .
Configure Monitoring of an Individual Line
You can configure a line key to monitor a coworker's line status. When you add speed dial to the configuration, you can use the line key to call the monitored line. When you add call pickup to the configuration, you can use the line key to answer incoming calls to the monitored line. The line key functions as a Busy Lamp Field
(BLF) key. See
Coworker Line Status, on page 12
for details.
You can select any available line key to configure this feature. You can also select any line key that is functioning as a speed-dial key or as a BLF key. Your configuration will override any existing configuration for the key.
If your administrator has configured a BLF list for you, you can only monitor the lines of people who are in the list.
Your phone may already be monitoring the entire list. See
Activate or Deactivate Monitoring of the BLF List, on page 13
for details. You can still configure an individual key to monitor a line. However, the phone will then no longer monitor the line automatically as part of the list. If you remove the individual BLF key configuration, the phone resumes monitoring the line automatically as part of the list. Note that the phone adjusts the BLF list key assignment every time it has to add or remove a line for automatic monitoring. This results in changes in the positions of BLF list keys.
Before you begin
• Your administrator performs the necessary setup to allow you to monitor the concerned line.
• Your administrator allows configuring the BLF feature options on line keys.
• The line key on which you want to configure this feature is not configured as an extension.

Speed-Dial Numbers
Speed-Dial Numbers
When you dial a number on your phone, you enter a series of digits. When you set up a speed-dial number, the speed-dial number must contain all the digits you need to make the call. For example, if you need to dial
9 to get an outside line, you enter the number 9 and then the number you want to dial.
You can also add other dialed digits to the number. Examples of additional digits include a meeting access code, an extension, a voicemail password, an authorization code, and a billing code.
The dial string can contain the following characters:
• 0 to 9
• Pound (#)
• Asterisk (*)
• Comma (,)—This is the pause character, and gives a 2 second delay in the dialing. You can have several commas in a row. For example, two commas (,,) represent a pause of 4 seconds.
The rules for dial strings are:
• Use the comma to separate the parts of the dial string.
• An authorization code must always precede a billing code in the speed-dial string.
• A single comma is required between the authorization code and the billing code in the string.
• A speed-dial label is required for speed dials with authorization codes and additional digits.
Before you configure the speed dial, try to dial the digits manually at least once to ensure that the digit sequence is correct.
Your phone does not save the authorization code, billing code, or extra digits from the speed dial in the call history. If you press Redial after you connect to a speed-dial destination, the phone prompts you to enter any required authorization code, billing code, or additional digits manually.
Example
To set up a speed-dial number to call a person at a specific extension, and if you need an authorization code and billing code, consider the following requirements:
• You need to dial 9 for an outside line.
• You want to call 5556543 .
• You need to input the authorization code 1234 .
• You need to input the billing code 9876 .
• You must wait for 4 seconds.
• After the call connects, you must dial the extension 56789# .
In this scenario, the speed-dial number is 95556543,1234,9876,,56789# .

The bottom row of the screen contains the softkey labels. Each label indicates the action for the softkey button below the screen.
If your phone screen gets dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
Caution Do not use any liquids or powders on the phone because they can contaminate the phone components and cause failures.
Differences Between Phone Calls and Lines
We use the terms lines and calls in very specific ways to explain how to use your phone.
• Lines—Each line corresponds to a directory number or intercom number that others can use to call you.
You have as many lines as you have directory numbers and phone line icons.
• Calls—Each line can support multiple calls. By default, your phone supports two connected calls per line, but your administrator can adjust this number according to your needs.
Only one call can be active at any time; other calls are automatically placed on hold.
Here is an example: If you have two lines and each line supports four calls, then you could have up to eight connected calls at one time. Only one of those calls is active and the other seven are held calls.

The Cisco IP Phone supports Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) v3. You can search for a specified
LDAP directory for a name, phone number, or both. LDAP-based directories, such as Microsoft Active
Directory 2003 and OpenLDAP-based databases, are supported.
To access the LDAP directory on the phone, enter your user credentials at least once. Your administrator can set up your user credentials on the phone administration web page.

The phone can save the user credentials for the host users or guest users. These users normally sign in to the phone through the Flexible Seating or the Extension Mobility feature.
Edit Credentials of Your LDAP Directory
When you access the LDAP directory on the phone, you might be prompted to enter your user credentials.
You can edit the credentials in advance to bypass the sign-in procedure. You can also change the LDAP account by editing the user credentials.

Reverse Name Lookup for Incoming and Outgoing Calls
Reverse name lookup searches for the name of a number in an incoming, outgoing, conference, or transferred call. The reverse name lookup acts when the phone cannot find a name using the service provider directory,
Call History, or your contacts. Reverse name lookup needs a valid LDAP Directory or XML Directory configuration.
The reverse name lookup searches the phone's external directories. When a search succeeds, the name is placed in the call session and in the call history. For simultaneous, multiple phone calls, reverse name lookup searches for a name to match the first call number. When the second call connects or is placed on hold, reverse name lookup searches for a name to match the second call.
Reverse name lookup is enabled by default.
Reverse name lookup searches the directories in the following order:
1.
Phone contacts
2.
Call History
3.
LDAP Directory
4.

Your Personal Voicemail Account
You can access your personal voice messages directly from your phone. But your administrator must set up your voicemail account, and may also set up your phone to access the voicemail system.
The Messages button on your phone acts as a speed dial into the voicemail system.
When you aren’t at your desk, you can call your voicemail system to access your voicemail. Your administrator can give you the voicemail system phone number.
Because each voicemail system is different, we can't tell you how to use your voicemail system. For information about your voicemail commands, see the voicemail system user documentation or contact your administrator.

Safety and Performance Information
Power Outage
Your access to emergency service through the phone requires that the phone receive power. If a power interruption occurs, service or emergency calling service dialing does not function until power is restored. If a power failure or disruption occurs, you may need to reset or reconfigure the equipment before you can use service or emergency calling service dialing.
External Devices
We recommend that you use good-quality external devices that are shielded against unwanted radio frequency
(RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals. External devices include headsets, cables, and connectors.
Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices, such as mobile phones or two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, we recommend that you take one or more of these actions:
• Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
• Route the external device cables away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
• Use shielded cables for the external device, or use cables with a better shield and connector.
• Shorten the length of the external device cable.
• Apply ferrites or other such devices on the cables for the external device.
Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of external devices, cables, and connectors.
