Button Type

Description
|
Account Code
|
Allows you to map the account code function to this button. Account codes allow you to keep track of calls associated with a particular client or account. The codes appear in Call Detail reports.
To use the function while you are on a call, press the button, enter the account code you want, and press the # key.
Number - Not used.
Priority - Not used.
|
Automatic Callback
|
Allows an internal user to have the system automatically generate a call back when the called party is available to take the call. You can also use Automatic Callback when the called party is not in use and ringing. In this case, the callback happens when the called party hangs up the telephone.
|
Bridged Extension
Bridged Extension- 2nd
|
Maps this button as a Bridged Extension.
If the list shows Bridged Extension, you can map the selected button as a primary or secondary bridged extension. On the 3Com 3103 Manager's Telephone, you can map access buttons as secondary bridged extensions only, and the list displays Bridged Extension - 2nd.
Number - When mapping a button on either the primary or secondary telephone, enter the primary telephone's extension number in this field.
Priority - Not used.
See Bridged Extensions for more information about bridged extensions and the NBX Administrator's Guide for information about bridged extensions and the 3Com 3103 Manager's Telephone.
|
Call Privacy
|
Allows an internal user to prevent a call from being monitored. 3Com telephone users can toggle on and off to block or accept supervisory monitoring on a call-by-call basis. (In contrast, membership in the Privacy List domain set by the administrator ensures that all calls associated with this user cannot be monitored.)
You can set this attribute on CoS basis.
|
Camp On
|
Allows an internal user to complete a call transfer to an extension that is In Use by queuing the call on the In Use line. The system queues the call until the In Use line is free or goes On Hold, or until the Camp On Timer returns the call to the extension that initiated the Camp On feature. This differs from a Blind Transfer, which completes the transfer but rings an In Use telephone on another free line if one is available.
Camp On also allows an internal user to directly place a connected call (internal or external) into a call queue of an In Use and Busy extension without using the Transfer feature.
You can invoke Camp On by using Feature Code 468 or by using a mapped feature button.
|
CFWD All
|
Forwards all calls, regardless of the status of the telephone.
|
CFWD Busy
|
Forwards all calls when your telephone is busy (all system appearances on the telephone are in use)
|
CFWD No Answer
|
Forwards all calls only when there is no answer after a configurable number of rings.
|
CLIR-All
|
Assigns Calling Line Identity Restriction to this button. When you press the button, all subsequent ISDN calls made from this telephone no longer contain CLIR information.
If the button has a light beside it, pressing the button causes the light to turn on. To turn off CLIR-All, press the button again. The light turns off.
Normally, when an ISDN call is made, the identity of the caller is provided to the PSTN and may be seen by the called user if they subscribe to the Caller-ID service. CLIR allows you to withhold this information from the called telephone user.
NOTE: Calls between systems that travel over a Virtual Tie Line (VTL) may need a dial plan pretranslator to properly handle caller ID information. For more information, see the dial plan chapter of the NBX Administrator's Guide.
Number - Not used.
Priority - Not used.

CLIR-Next
|
Assigns Calling Line Identity Restriction to this button. When you press the button, the next ISDN call made from this telephone does not contain CLIR information.
If the button has a light beside it, pressing the button does not cause the light to turn on. After you complete the call and hang up, CLIR-Next becomes inactive.
Normally, when an ISDN call is made, the identity of the caller is provided to the PSTN and may be seen by the called user if they subscribe to the Caller-ID service. CLIR allows you to withhold this information from the called telephone user.

Call Toggle
|
Allows a user to switch between the two incoming lines.
For example, if a user is on a call and then receives a second call, pressing Call Toggle places the first call on Hold and switches to the second call. Pressing Call Toggle while there are two active calls switches between the active call and the call on Hold. If both calls are on Hold, Call Toggle always connects the user to the call that was most recently placed on Hold.

DP 540-549
(NBX 100 system)
|
Maps one of the Directed Call Pickup extensions to this button.
Directed Call Pickup allows a user to pick up a call that is ringing on someone's telephone. The telephone user's telephone and the ringing telephone must be part of the same pickup group unless you enable the "Allow Non-Member Pickup" check box for the ringing telephone's group.
After you map the Directed Pickup extension to a button on one or more user telephones, each user with that button mapping can log into the NBX NetSet utility and select the telephone extension that is picked up when the button is pressed. Each user can select a telephone extension that is different than the telephone extensions chosen by other users.
Example: You map DP 545 to button 10 for a telephone group that includes user extension 3504. In the Extension field, the user 3504 enters 3500 as the extension to be picked up. When a call rings on 3500, user 3504 picks up the handset, presses button 10, and is connected to the caller.

You can map a button to the extension of another telephone (to create a Busy Lamp/Speed Dial), a line card port extension (external line), an Analog Terminal Adapter, an Analog Terminal Card port, or a Call Park extension (to park a call or to pick up a call parked at that extension).

MWI Cancel
|
Allows a user to cancel and remove the most recent MWI message that was sent to a particular extension from this telephone. (The same telephone that sent the message must be used to cancel the message.)
On the receiving telephone, the cancel operation has the following results:
-
If there is only one MWI message in the destination's MWI message queue, and the message originates from the same extension that is attempting to cancel it, the system removes the MWI message log from the MWI message queue.
MWI Retrieve LED Status: If the LED had been in the On state prior to the cancellation, the LED turns Off. If the LED was in the Off state prior to the cancellation, the LED stays Off.
-
If there is more than one MWI message in the queue, the system removes the most recent MWI message that this user had sent from the MWI message queue. If the user on the receiving telephone scrolls through the MWI message list, that user can no longer see the removed entry.
MWI Retrieve LED Status: The LED stays in the On state only if there is still one or more new MWI messages in the queue. Otherwise, the MWI Retrieve LED turns Off.
|
MWI Retrieve
|
Allows you to retrieve MWI messages through the display panel and the up or down arrow (scroll) buttons. The MWI Retrieve mapped button has an associated status light, which illuminates when a new MWI message has been received.

When you press the MWI Retrieve button once, the MWI Retrieve mapped button associated status light turns off. To retrieve MWI messages, the user must press the MWI Retrieve mapped button on the telephone.
The first display on the telephone's display panel shows how many Total and New MWI messages are in the MWI queue. This display also offers the options to use the up or down arrow (scroll) keys, and to select the Delete All or Exit softkeys.
-
The Delete All softkey deletes all entries in the MWI Retrieve message list.
-
The Exit softkey returns the user back to the telephone's default date and time display.
-
The up/down arrow (scroll) keys allow the user to view the received MWI messages. A MWI message consists of the calling party's extension, and the date and time of the call. The display panel alternates its display every five seconds to allow the user the opportunity to use the Call or Delete softkey on the message.
