Trunk Key (Call Key 1)

g
The trunk key of the telephone (also: call key 1) is occupied by your internal
call number (main number). The key is located to the left of the display, and is labelled
with your internal call number (or optionally, with a text programmed by the system
administrator). Refer to the respective illustration in the chapter Key Assignments
starting on page 11 to determine the position of the key on your equipment. Your
internal call number is assigned to an external call number where you can be reached
when being called from an external number. It is possible to assign several external
call numbers to the key. If you wish to make a call, lifting the handset seizes the key
(and the trunk line); you can immediately dial an internal or external number
(depending on the system setting). Long pressing the key displays a MenuCard which
allows you to programme the key's settings (see the section entitled MenuCard "Prog.
call key" starting on page 127).
A system setting makes it possible to have your internal number assigned to other tel-
ephones as well. Calls will then be signalled to other telephones simultaneously.
The LED of the key indicates the current status, see also the chapter Signalling on the
Call Keys starting on page 46.
For the System Administrator: Setting the Trunk Keys of the System Telephones
• The internal call number for a system telephone is configured in the Configurator,
Telephony: Ports: Upn menu or for IP phones respectively in the Configurator,
Telephony: Devices: VoIP Phones menu. The assigned internal call number is
automatically allocated to the trunk key (call key 1).
• The assignment to external call numbers takes place in the Configurator,
Telephony: Call Distribution menu.

Programmable Keys

g
The additional keys to the left of the display are free programmable keys. The
system administrator can assign other internal call numbers to these keys for you as
additional trunk keys (call keys). These keys have also been assigned to external call
numbers at which you can be reached from an external number. In order to make a
call with a trunk key, first press the key and then dial the call number.
The system administrator can also assign the programmable keys as call keys for team
functions. Information on the use of team functions can be found in the chapter Team
Functions starting on page 92.
