4.7 Hot Desking
Employees in enterprises that operate according to a 'touch-down desk' concept can use the
phone's HostDesk feature. In these enterprises, employees typically travel frequently to remote
branches, or work in shifts. They can sign in to a phone that is already signed in by another (CAP
or regular) user without signing out the original user to whom the phone was assigned for primary
use.
 To use the HotDesk feature:
1. Press the MENU hard key on the phone.
2. Click the HotDesk softkey; the 'HotDesk Sign-in options' screen opens – identical to the
regular sign-in options screen.
3. Select PIN code, Username and Password, Web Cloud (Office 365) -or- Web Login (see
here
for more information).
Note:
• If the feature isn't enabled on the server already, the enterprise's network administrator
must enable it.
• When the HotDesk user signs out or if the phone stays in idle state longer than the
HotDesk timeout defined on the server, the phone automatically returns to its original user
and state; its configuration and data are preserved as they were before the phone was
leased for HostDesk use. HotDesk users cannot perform all operations that the original
(CAP or regular) user could perform, for example, change Language.
