13 Absence Information (Optional)
Absence information is used to inform callers why you are absent and
when you will return. If your own extension is the answering position for
another extension, you can enter absence information for that extension,
if you are authorized to do so.
When the absence information feature is enabled, a special dial tone will
be heard. The phone can still be used for outgoing calls.
Note: This feature needs to be configured in the WinPDM or CPDM by
the system administrator.
You can inform callers about your absence either by using pre-defined
text messages, or by recording a personal voice message.
13.1 Pre-Defined Text
You can enter Presence Information for another extension from your
extension, provided that you are authorized to do so.
Note: Your phone can be used for outgoing calls even if an absence
reason is selected. You will then hear a special dial tone when
you lift the handset.
13.1.1 Selecting an Absence Reason
To select an absence reason, do the following:
1. Press Menu, select , and press Select.
2. Select Call services, and press Select.
3. Select Absence and press Select.
The available absence reasons are displayed. The options may
vary depending on the configuration in the PDM. For more informa-
tion, contact the system administrator.
4. Select an absence reason, and press Select.
5. Depending on the selected option, enter date (MMDD) or time
(HHMM), and press OK.
The phone calls the system and sends an absence code. The call
is disconnected automatically after a few seconds.
