ABOUT YOUR PHONE
About the Touch Screen
Your phone has a touch-sensitive screen.
To access features, obtain information, or
edit fields, tap the menu items, arrow
keys, soft keys (the keys along the bottom
of the touch screen), and fields that
display on the touch screen.
About Calls and Line Keys
Your phone can handle one active call
and multiple calls on hold. The active call
displays in the center of the touch screen.
Calls on hold display in a row along the
bottom of the touch screen.
Your phone can have up to six lines. A line
is assigned to a Line Key. Line Keys
display in a column along the far-right of
the touch screen. Any unassigned
Line Key can be a Speed Dial Key.
A Line Key is either green (dial tone,
incoming call, or active call) or blue (no
active call). Calls that display on the touch
screen are associated with the Line Key
that is green.
Line Keys can also have a status indicator
(a vertical bar on the far-right of the
Line Key):
.
The status indicator can be:
• Solid green—Dial-tone is available,
dialing is in progress, or a call is active.
• Flashing green—Incoming call.
• Flashing red—All calls or conferences
are on hold.
About Video
Your phone displays video in two
windows: a small picture-in-picture (PIP)
window at the top-right of the touch
screen, and a larger window centered in
the middle of the touch screen. By default,
the near site (i.e., you) displays in the PIP,
and the far site displays in the larger
window.
During an active call, you can tap the PIP
to swap the windows the video displays
in. When the near site displays in the
larger window, “Local Camera” displays
next to it.
You can also display video on the entire
screen (full screen mode) by tapping the
larger window. In full screen mode, you
can swap the windows the video displays
in by tapping the PIP. To resume normal
viewing mode, tap the full screen video.
