Preferred Line And Preferred Line Timeout - Aastra 6730i User Manual

Preferred Line and Preferred Line Timeout

The 6730i has a feature called "preferred line" and "preferred line timeout". If you enable the
preferred line parameter on your phone, after a call ends (incoming or outgoing), the display
switches back to the preferred line. Next time you go off-hook to make another call, you pickup on
the preferred line. You can enable the preferred line parameter using the Aastra Web UI at the
location, Basic Settings->Preferences->General. You can also set a preferred timeout parameter
that specifies the number of seconds it takes for the phone to switch back to the preferred line.
The following table provides the behavior of the preferred line focus feature with other features on
the phone.

If the "Switch UI Focus To Ringing Line" parameter is disabled,
the User is able to see the Caller ID when the phone switches the
focus to the ringing line.
Factory default and recovery mode clears the "preferred line" and
"preferred line timeout" parameters, and the phone operates in a
non-preferred line mode.

disables the preferred line focus feature.
2. If you specify a value of "0" for the preferred line timeout
parameter, the phone returns the line to the preferred line immediately.
