More on Answering Calls
SoundPoint Pro will automatically select the ringing line when you answer. It is not
necessary to select the ringing line first.
Answering when more than one incoming line is ringing
The line that is engaged first will ring and the red LED will blink. The second line’s
LED will blink, but no audible ring will be heard.
When the phone is answered, preference will be given to the primary line. If no
primary line has been programmed, the lowest-numbered line will be selected first
(i.e. line 1 before line 2).
Second calls on an inactive line
If you are already engaged in a call and another call comes in on a line you are not
using, you will be prompted with a low volume ring, and the LED indicator for the
incoming line will blink. If you subscribe to Caller ID on call waiting, SoundPoint
Pro will display Caller ID information for the incoming call. To answer the call:
Place your call on hold with the H O L D key, then press the L I N E key with the red bl i n k i n g
LED (ringing), and begin speaking.
