Line Key - Mitel 6869i User Manual

Line Key

Note:
Line functionality can only be programmed on the top softkeys.
You can set a softkey to act as a line/call appearance key on the 6869i. This key acts as a line that behaves the same as a
hard line key (L1 and L2). For more information about the behavior of Line keys, see
page 61.
Depending on how the phone has been configured, the maximum number of total line/call appearances that can be con-
figured is 9 (2 line/call appearance hard keys plus 7softkeys). If all line/call appearances have been set up between two dif-
ferent numbers, a total of 11 lines can be configured. This means that when all line/call appearances are in use, 1 call is
connected while the rest are on hold. No further outgoing or incoming calls can be made until one of the line/call appear-
ances becomes available.
