Administering Telephone Options
softkey turns the telephone's backlight off, saving energy. The backlight comes back on
automatically when an phone activity is detected, such as an incoming call or a button press by
the user.
Another consideration for IDLEFEATURES or DIALFEATURES is that if the system parameter
PHNEMERGNUM is administered, the third softkey in the Idle or Dialing call state will always be
labeled "Emerg." regardless of the contents of those system parameters.
Features administered only for any SBM24 Button Module are ignored. The feature must be
administered for the telephone itself and not the button module.
Primary call appearances, bridged call appearances, and Team Buttons cannot be
administered on softkeys.
The feature button softkey labels displayed to the user are those downloaded from the call
server. If the user has personalized the labels, the personalized labels are presented instead.
If one of the designated parameters contains a Feature number more than once, and that
number corresponds to at least one occurrence of a feature button downloaded from the call
server, the designation of softkeys to features is assigned in the order the features are listed.
For example, if two Abbreviated Dial (AD) buttons (Feature Number 65) are listed in the
DIALFEATURES parameter, the first AD button in that list is associated with the first AD button
downloaded from the call server. The second AD button in the DIALFEATURES parameter is
associated with the second AD button downloaded from the call server (if any), and so on.
Note:
The system parameters allow you to specify more features than can be displayed
Note:
on any one telephone. For example, IDLEFEATURES allows you to specify up to
six features, although any one telephone can display at most four of them. The
maximum size of each parameter allows you to specify one comprehensive list
for that parameter's related call state, but allows your user community to see
different feature buttons depending on how you administer their telephones.
Since the telephone only displays feature button labels for features administered
on the call server, you can set the softkey feature system parameters to values
that will correspond to features for some users, but not others. For example, if
TALKFEATURES is administered to "325,50", the users having Conference
Display administered would see that label on softkey #3 for the Active with talk
path call state, but users with Attendant Release would instead see that label on
softkey #3. Since softkey labels display in the order in which they are
administered in the system parameter, a user with both Conference Display and
Attendant Release would only see a Conference Display softkey.
