13. Logging In/Out
You may always use the same phone in the same location. However, the telephone system provides a number of features
that allow you to use any phone on the system to make and receive calls.
· Log In
You can log in at any phone that you want to use. All your calls are then redirected to that phone and your user
settings are applied to calls made and received. If it is a phone that stores your contacts and call history on the
system, your contacts and call log are displayed by the phone.
· Any other existing user of that phone is logged out while you are logged in.
· If you were logged in on another phone, you are logged out from it.
· Log Out
When you log out from a phone (or are logged out by another user logging in), the telephone system may apply
several actions:
· If you have a normal default extension and no one else is logged in there, you return to being logged in on
that phone.
· If you remain logged out, you are treated the same as being on 'do not disturb' except that all calls to you go
to voicemail instead, if available.
· If you have a mobile twinned number, the system administrator can configure the system so that calls are still
presented to your mobile twin while you are logged out.
· Lock/Unlock
Separately from logging in and out, you can lock your phone settings. While locked, the phone can still be used to
answer your calls and can be used to make internal and emergency calls. However it cannot be used to make
external calls and your user settings cannot be accessed through the phones menus.
· You can set your phone to automatically lock itself after a period of inactivity.
· Default Extension
Each extension can be configured with a default user. If you are logged off from an extension, the system will
automatically log you in at your default extension if it is not in use by another user.
· Login Idle Period
Your system administrator can configure a timeout which will automatically log you out if you do not use the phone
in that time to make or answer a call.
Default Short Codes
Short codes are numbers that you can dial to enable and disable various features. Your system administrator will confirm
any additional short codes that may have been configured for your use.
· Log In: *35*N*P#
Log in to a phone using your extension number (N) and login code (P).
· Log Out: *36
Log yourself out from the phone where you are currently logged in.
