Line And Call Appearances; Line/Call Appearance Hard Keys - Aastra 480i User Manual

Chapter 2, Getting Started

Line and Call Appearances

There can be up to 9 line/call appearances configured on the 480i:
•
Line appearance keys are those with assigned directory numbers.
•
Call appearance keys are those that are used along with the line appearance keys to
support features such as conference, transfer, and call waiting.
An available line is automatically selected when the phone goes off-hook.

Line/Call Appearance Hard Keys

There are 4 physical line/call appearance hard keys across the bottom of the phone
labeled L1 – L4. The associated lamps indicate the status of the line or call appearance.
The following applies to these keys:
•
L1 is usually your main directory number.
•
The L2 key is usually assigned as a supporting call appearance for the L1 line, to
provide another open line to perform Call Transfer, Conference, and Call Waiting.
•
If you have only one directory number on your phone, you can also use any one of
the line keys (L1 – L4) to originate a call. The destination will always display your
directory number as the originator.
•
An incoming call will ring in on the line appearance where the directory number is
assigned. If that line is busy, it will ring in on the associated call appearance. If both
the line appearance and the call appearance are busy, the call follows the call forward
busy destination.
•
If both the line and call appearance are busy, and there is no call forward busy
destination assigned, the caller hears busy tone.
•
If you have more than one directory number on these keys and want to originate a
call from a specific line that was not the last line used, you must choose the line
manually.
