Park/Pickup Keys - Aastra 55I IP PHONE - RELEASE 2.1 User Manual

Park/Pickup Keys

The IP phone has a park and pickup call feature that allows you to park a call and
pickup a call when required. There are two ways a user can configure this feature:
• Using a static configuration
• Using a programmable configuration (using keys)
Note: The IP phone accepts both methods of configuration. However, to avoid
redundancy, Aastra Telecom recommends you configure either a static
configuration or a programmable configuration.
The IP phone supports the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks,
Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.
The following paragraphs describe the park and pickup methods of configuration on
the IP phones.
Park/Pickup Static Configuration
You can configure a static configuration for parking and picking up a call using the
Aastra Web UI at Basic Settings-> Preferences.
By entering the appropriate value in the "Park Call" and "Pickup Parked Call"
fields, you tell the phone where to park a live call and where to pickup the parked
call.
On the IP phone UI, the static configuration method displays the following:
• When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, the default label of "Park"
displays on the Phone UI.
• After pressing the "Park" key to park the call, the default label of "Pickup"
displays on the phone UI.
Note: On the 55i handset, pressing Ï displays the "Park" and "Pickup" labels.
The values you enter in the Aastra Web UI for the Park/Pickup call feature are
dependant on your type of server. The following table provides the values you enter
for the "Park Call" and "Pickup Parked Call" fields in the Aastra Web UI.
