Aastra Telecom 57I IP Phone User Manual


 
Model 57i CT IP Phone User Guide 91
Line Keys and Softkeys
Park/Pickup Keys
The IP phone has a park and pickup call feature that allows you to park a call and
pickup a call when required. There are two ways a user can configure this feature:
Using a static configuration
Using a programmable configuration (on the softkeys)
The IP phone supports the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks,
Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.
The following paragraphs describe the park and pickup methods of configuration on
the IP phones.
Park/Pickup Static Configuration
You can configure a static configuration for parking and picking up a call using the
Aastra Web UI at Basic Settings-> Preferences.
By entering the appropriate value in the "Park Call" and "Pickup Parked Call"
fields, you tell the phone where to park a live call and where to pickup the parked
call.
On the IP phone UI, the static configuration method displays the following:
When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, the default label of "Park"
displays on the Phone UI.
After pressing the "Park" softkey to park the call, the default label of
"Pickup" displays on the phone UI.
Note: The IP phone accepts both methods of configuration. However, to avoid
redundancy, Aastra Telecom recommends you configure either a static
configuration or a programmable configuration.
Note: On the 57i CT handset, pressing Ï displays the "Park" and "Pickup"
labels.
