Placing Calls
Before placing a call to contact, you may want to check their presence status in
Microsoft Lync 2010. If their status is Available, go ahead and place the call.
To place a call using your Polycom CX300 desktop phone, dial the number
using the dial pad with the handset off-hook or on-hook.
During a call, you can alternate between handset, headset, or speakerphone
modes by pressing the Speakerphone or Headset keys, or picking up the
handset. If you are using the handset, press the Speakerphone or Headset
keys before you replace the handset. If you are using the speakerphone or
headset, just lift the handset to switch.
Call duration on an active call is monitored through a local call timer. This is
visible within the active call window on the graphic display. In the figure
below, the call to Sarah Smith has lasted two minutes and twenty seconds so
far.
Note
With regard to the placement of emergency calls, consult your system
administrator.
To place international calls, enter "+". Press and hold the "0" key for 1.5 seconds.
The "0" button must be the first digit pressed for the "+" for international dialing to
display. Microsoft Lync 2010 will replace the "+" with the access numbers required
to dial an international phone number.
If dialing rules are set up for Microsoft Lync 2010, then these rules also apply to
your phone.
