Description
The iPECS Phone incorporates a field of “Flex” buttons as well as the fixed feature buttons. The
Flex buttons are assigned in the system database to access features, functions and resources of
the system. Specifically, Flex buttons can be assigned as:
x An Empty button has no system database assignment.
x A {
DSS/BLF} button, used to place One-touch ICM call to a designated station and display
status of the station.
x A Flex Numbering Plan, button activates the feature associated with the assigned digits
from the Flexible Numbering Plan.
x A Speed Dial bin button accesses and dials the number from the assigned Speed Dial bin.
x A Pool button, accesses a CO/IP path from the CO/IP group designated for the Pool button.
A Pool button is used primarily to provide an outgoing call appearance when a direct CO
line appearance is not available. It may be used as the last choice for an incoming CO/IP
call. The Pool button LED provides the status for the duration of the call.
x A Loop button provides an appearance for incoming CO/IP calls when a direct CO/IP
appearance is not available. The Loop button LED provides the status for the duration of
the call.
x A Station User Program Code button, access or activate the special features available with
the Station User Program Codes, see section 5.24.
x A CO Line Appearance button provides access to the individual CO Line assigned to the
Flex button. The CO Line button LED provides the status of the CO Line.
With the exception of CO Line buttons, Flex buttons can be assigned at the station by the end-user.
If allowed in the database, the user can also assign or reassign CO Line buttons.
