example caller ID, icons for an active call or call on hold) and available softkeys.

Session buttons Each represents a call session and takes the default action for that session. For example, pressing
the session button for a ringing call answers the call, while pressing the session button for a held
call resumes the call.
Color LEDs reflect the call state. LEDs can flash (blink on and off rapidly), pulse (alternately
dim and brighten), or appear solid (glow without interruption).
Flashing amber—Ringing call
Solid green—Connected call or an outgoing call that is not yet connected
Pulsing green—Held call
Solid red—Shared line in-use remotely
Pulsing red—Shared line call put on hold remotely (when Privacy is off)
(The position of session buttons may be reversed with that of programmable feature buttons on
phones using a locale with a right-to-left reading orientation, such as Hebrew and Arabic.)
