Line and Call Appearance Keys
There can be up to 9 line/call appearances configured on the 6755i:
 Line appearance keys are those with assigned directory numbers.
 Call appearance keys are those that are used along with the line appearance keys to
support features such as conference, transfer, and call waiting.
Line/Call Appearance Hard Keys
There are 4 line/call appearance hard keys on the bottom right side of the phone labeled
L1 – L4. The associated lamps indicate the status of the line or call appearance. The
following applies to these keys:
 L1 is your preferred line and is your primary voice line (extension). Regardless of
the line used on a call, the LCD display returns to the preferred line after a call ends
(incoming or outgoing). The next time the phone goes off-hook, it will select your
preferred line.
 The L2 key is usually assigned as a supporting call appearance for the L1 line, to
provide another open line to perform Call Transfer, Conference, and Call Waiting.
 If you have only one directory number on your phone, you can also use any one of
the line keys (L1 – L4) to originate a call. The destination will always display your
directory number as the originator.
 If a call rings in when you are already on a call, the original call is automatically
placed on hold when you answer the new call.
 If both the line and call appearance are busy, an incoming call follows the call
forward busy destination. If there is no call forward/busy destination assigned, the
caller hears busy tone.
 If you have more than one directory number on your phone and want to originate a
call from a specific line is not your preferred line, you must choose the line manually.
Top Hard Keys as Line/Call Appearances
The 6 programmable hard keys on the top of the phone can be programmed as line or call
appearances. The following applies to these keys:
 A line appearance and call appearance are usually assigned to adjacent keys.
 The lamps associated with the line or call appearance provide status.
 Either one of the keys can be used to place a call from that directory number. The
destination will always display the directory number of the line appearance as the
originating directory number.
