9.4.9 Speed Dial PFK Type

The PFK automatically dials an extension. The extension is specified when setting up the Speed Dial

function for this PFK.

9.4.10 Parking PFK Type

This feature is new to 6.5 software, and allows PFKs to be programmed to perform the park operation with a

press of the button. Calls can still be parked by performing a transfer to extensions 700 or 740. However,

when a PFK is defined as the parking function, the Hold button will no longer be able to be used to perform

the parking operation, it will remain as the dedicated hold function.

9.5 Call Assistant Appearances

The Call Assistant Appearance requires the Call Assistant software application and the Call Assistant Feature

Key to be installed.

The Call Assistant Appearance settings extend the number of the features available in Programmable

Function Keys by creating virtual keys within the Call Assistant software application. The additional virtual

appearances are available only when the Call Assistant application is connected to an Allworx IP phone.

However, when connected, this has the practical implication of having many additional PFK’s, for these

features, beyond the physical keys available on the actual phone.

Call Assistant Appearances has the following PFK features available:

 Call Appearance

 Line Appearance

 Queue Appearance

 Call Monitor

See the above section on PFK Function Selections for details on each of these features. The handset will ring

when any of these appearances ring; see the Call Assistant software documentation for further details.

Enable the above feature by check the appropriate field and modify the parameters, if needed.

Look at the Call Assistant Appearance section on the View Configuration page of a particular handset. This

section is used to show and modify the specific additional appearances defined for a particular handset when

a user has connected to this handset with their Call Assistant application. To modify the configuration, click

the Modify link. These options work identically to the corresponding appearance types described in the

previous section on physical PFK buttons.

9.6 Phone Options

Look at the Phone Options section on the View Configuration page of a particular handset. This section is

used to show and modify the phone options for a particular handset. To change the configuration, click the

Modify link. Many of these options are easily understood from the web page. However, some of the more

complicated ones will be described next.
