About Operating Modes
Your Cisco DX80 may operate in one 
of three modes: Public Mode, Simple 
Mode, or Enhanced Mode. Public 
Mode is similar to a kiosk mode. This 
guide does not cover Public Mode.
In Enhanced Mode, the Cisco DX80 
acts as an Android tablet, and the 
phone part of the unit is then an 
app referred to as the Call app. Your 
Administrator sets up operating modes.
Simple Mode: Provides access to the 
following functions:
  Place calls
 
Access your list of Contacts
  Display the list of Recent calls
  Display any Voicemail (Messages)
  View PC (if applicable)
  Display the Settings menu 
Enhanced Mode: Requires that you 
start the Call app before you can use 
the system as a phone. 
To start the Call app, tap Phone (
)
 
in 
the left corner of the black bottom bar. 
The Phone icon is shown in Enhanced 
Mode only.
The usual Android navigation buttons 
(Back, Home, and Recently Used 
Apps) are shown when the Call app is 
running.
Note The descriptions in this document 
assume that the system either is in 
Simple Mode or that the Call app is 
running.
