system administrator for assistance customizing your phone.
Placing and Answering Audio Calls
VVX 201 phones can manage a maximum of 8 active, incoming, and held audio calls at a time. VVX 300
series, 400 series, 500 series, and 600 series phones can manage a maximum of 24 active, incoming,
and held audio calls at a time. However, you can have only one active call in progress with numerous
other incoming calls or calls on hold on all phones. Additionally, your system administrator can set up
your phone to have up to six lines with unique extension numbers, or the same extension number as
other lines on your network.

Placing Audio Calls

You can place calls on VVX Business Media Phone in numerous ways, including international calls, calls
from Recent Calls or directories, calls to contacts or favorites, calling a contact from a VVX Expansion
Module, or calling authorized numbers on a locked phone.
Place a Call from the Dialer
The Dialer enables you to enter a number to place a call and displays a list of previously placed calls. As
you enter numbers, the Dialer displays a list of similar numbers in your directory, and you can select a
match to automatically enter the number.
