Softkey Display Behavior

On the 6915 IP phone, you can configure up to 10 (left) and 9 (bottom) functions on the softkeys. 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 left softkeys 1 through 10 are set to None, and you set the left softkey 8 as the following:
Type: Speed Dial
Label: John Doe
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 left softkey 12) and how it is
displayed on the phone:
