29.2 Configure Allworx IP Phone Parking Orbits
Configure Allworx IP phones via Programmable Function Keys (PFK) to monitor the
status of the Parking Orbits. The Parking Orbit PFK indicates the parked or idle status of
the associated Parking Orbit. The Allworx Server Administrator can configure the
Parking Orbit PFK to provide a reminder of a parked call.
1. Log in to the Allworx server admin page, navigate to Phone System > Handsets,
and locate the appropriate SIP handset.
2. Click View Configuration.
3. Locate the Programmable Function Keys (PFK) section, and click the Modify link.
4. Select Parking Orbit from the drop-down list for the targeted PFK, and click define
for this Key under Type heading.
5. Set the particular Parking Orbit (701 – 709
1
) for the PFK to monitor.
6. Set the Reminder Duration to ring the handset after parking the call longer than
the elapsed time (enter 0 to disable the reminder or enter a time period from 10 to
600 seconds).
7. Click Done to complete the assignment of the PFK settings.
8. Click Update to save all PFK assignments. Reboot the phone. See the phone
configuration section for all other details about phone configuration.
Use Analog, Allworx, and third-party IP phones to park or retrieve calls. However, only
Allworx IP phones can be configured with Parking Orbit PFKs and support parked call
reminders. Allworx IP phones are configurable to use the HOLD button for HOLD or
PARK.
1. Extensions may vary per system. If using a non-default Internal Dial Plan, consult the My Allworx
manager Phone Functions tab to determine what extensions to use for the corresponding feature.
Note:
The only option for parking calls using analog phones or third-party IP phones is by
transferring the call to extension 700. If doing an attended (or announced) transfer, the
user hears the parking orbit number. Parking Orbit PFKs are not functional on phones
registered at sites participating in Multi-site Parking.
