5i Series IP Phone Release Notes
Enhancements to “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” Feature
The “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” feature introduced in Release 2.1 has
been enhanced to work more efficiently.
In previous releases, if the “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” feature was
disabled, and you were dialing out on your phone, and you received an incoming
call at the same time, the incoming call would go to an available line and the LED
would blink to let you know where the call was placed by the phone. The Caller
ID would display on the LCD and the number you were dialing disappears. If you
wanted to continue dialing out, you would have to press the Line key for which
you were originally dialing out on. If “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” is
enabled, the incoming call interrupts your dialing sequence and displays to the
phone’s LCD for you to answer.
In Release 2.1.1, the behavior for “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” has been
modified. Now when this feature is disabled, the incoming call goes to an
available line, the LED blinks, but the LCD screen still displays the number you
were dialing. When this feature is enabled, it performs the same as in previous
releases.
Transfer/Conference Call Behavior
If you are dialing the phone to transfer or conference a call, and your phone
receives an incoming call, your dialing is never interrupted (regardless of
whether the “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” is enabled or disabled). For
Transfer and Conference, the incoming calls always go to an available line
(other than the one you are using for dialing) and the incoming call’s line
LED blinks. The LCD still displays your dialing screen.
Intercom Behavior
If “Incoming Call Interrupts Dialing” is enabled and you are dialing an
outgoing Intercom call, the enabled interrupt setting takes precedence over an
enabled “Allow Barge In” setting. The incoming call interrupts your dialing on
an outgoing intercom call. On an incoming intercom call, the enabled “Allow
Barge In” and “Auto-Answer” occurs while you are dialing to transfer or
conference the call. However, the incoming call goes to an available idle line, and
the LED blinks while you are dialing the second half of the conference or transfer.
