Using Buddy Lists

Your SoundPoint IP 560 phone combines interactive message services and

status monitoring to complement a traditional messaging application such as

e-mail.
Live interaction within a pool of phones is possible by monitoring the

“presence” of the parties involved. Your phone can “watch” the status of up to

8 other phones or 48 buddies. These other phones form your “buddy list”. The

status of your buddies is displayed and updated in real time. Your phone can

be “watched” by up to 8 other phones.
If your SoundPoint IP 560 phone is configured to work with Microsoft Live

Communications Server 2005, the behavior of the presence setting and buddy

lists is different. For more information, contact your system administrator.
