Line buttons
For each line assigned to your telephone, one line button is assigned to that
line. Press the line button to select the line you want to answer or use to
make a call. Having several line buttons allows you immediate access to
more than one line.
Note: Target lines (DID) are for incoming calls only. If you press a line
button assigned to a target line that does not have an incoming call, the
prompts on your telephone will indicate that the line is for incoming calls
only.
The M7100 and T7100 telephones have two intercom paths which are used
instead of line buttons to answer and make calls. Each M7100 can be
assigned two lines. You can press
to switch between two calls, one
active and one on hold.
