Automatically accepting calls
The default is "o". Turning the function on: On the phone's web interface > Configuration Identity #
> SIP tab > Auto answer: Click on the radio button "On".
With this setting, your phone will automatically accept incoming calls when the phone is idle:
• If your are using Firmware version 8.7.2 and higher, calls will be accepted on speakerphone;
press the headset key
if you want them to go to the headset.
• Firmware version 8.7.1 and lower: Open the phone's web interface to the page Preferences >
Auto Answer > Type of Answering and select "Handsfree" (speakerphone) or "Headset" from the
drop-down menu.
If you want to be alerted acoustically by a single long beep, whenever the phone accepts an incoming
call, you need to change another default setting on the phones's web interface from "O" to "On":
Preferences > Auto Answer > Auto Answer Indication.
Call pick-up from another extension
You can pick up calls ringing on another extension, for example when the other extension is busy or
when the user is absent. The prerequisites for this function are:
◦ It must be supported by the PBX.
◦ The extension whose calls you wish to pick up on your own extension must permit this
function and you must both be using the same ID for this function. Settings:
- Phone's web interface > Configuration Identity > SIP > Allow incoming extension
monitoring: "on"
- Phone's web interface > Configuration Identity > SIP > Extension monitoring group ID:
Enter the ID into the textfield. Please note: The first character of the ID must not be a '{'
bracket.
◦ The extension to be monitored must be programmed onto one of the freely programmable
function keys with LEDs. See chapter "Configuring the function keys", "Example 1, Extension
monitoring and call pick-up" on page 60.
When these prerequisites are met, the status of the monitored extension is indicated by the LED of the
function key:
◦ Blinking LED: Incoming call ringing. If the call is not answered, press the key to pick it up.
◦ LED glowing steadily: The monitored extension is busy (in call, dialing, etc.).
If you want to see who is calling or connected to any of your monitored extensions, you can call up
that information on the display if the "monitor calls" key event is mapped onto another function key.
Configuring the function key: See "Example 2, Monitoring calls on-screen" on page 61.
