SOFTKEY DISPLAY BEHAVIOR

On the 6873i IP phone, you can configure up to 48 (top) and 30 (bottom) functions on the
softkeys. By default, if you have no softkeys configured on the IP phone, and you assign softkey
functions to higher number keys in the Mitel Web UI, the key functions automatically appear in
the first available position on the LCD display.
For example, if top softkeys 1 through 48 are set to None, and you set the top softkey 12 as
the following:
Type: Speed Dial
Label: Home
Value: 3456
after saving the settings, the "Home" label actually appears in position 1 of the LCD.
A softkey function of None does not display on the Home screen at all.
The following figures illustrate the above scenario (i.e. the configuration of top softkey 12) and
how it is displayed on the phone:
