Placing Calls
You can place a call off-hook (with a dial tone) or on-hook (without a dial 
tone). If you place a call off-hook, you can dial a contact using an IP address or 
URL, if this feature is enabled for your phone.
The phone screen displays the duration of active calls. The following figure 
shows an active call to Jacklyn Smith at directory number 1955 that has lasted 
57 seconds.
To place a call on-hook (to dial a phone number):

Enter the phone number of the person you want to call, and then press 
 or the Dial soft key.
Note
If your phone is connected to a Polycom HDX system, see Using the Phone When
