buttons are assigned to other extensions in the system (primary extensions). Because

View the call activity at the primary extension.
Transfer calls to the primary extension.
Answer a call that is ringing or holding on any CALL button at the primary extension.

You can use Remote Programming to access the Do-Not-Disturb (DND), Call Forwarding,
Personal Call Routing features from another system phone or an external phone.

NOTES
Unless internal calls are set up by the system administrator to use CALL buttons,
you cannot use Secondary Extension buttons to answer ringing or holding internal
calls received by the primary extension.
