Auto-Registering Your Phone Using TAPS
After your phone is installed and connected to the network, your system
administrator might ask you to auto-register your phone using TAPS (Tool for
Auto-Registered Phones Support). TAPS might be used either for a new phone or
to replace an existing phone.
Procedure
Step 1 To register with TAPS, pick up the handset and enter the TAPS extension provided
by your system administrator.
Step 2 Follow the voice prompts.
You might need to enter your entire extension, including the area code.
Step 3 After your phone displays a confirmation message, hang up.
The phone restarts and displays your extension number.
Using Feature Buttons
Your Cisco IP Phone has four feature buttons:
• Services button—Displays services on your phone’s LCD screen. These are
services to which you have already subscribed using the Cisco CallManager
User Options web pages. Your system administrator determines the services
that are available to you. For more information, see the “Additional Features
and Services” section on page 6-3.
• Messages button—Provides access to your voice messaging system. For
more information, see the “Using Your Voice Messaging System” section on
page 7-1.
• Settings button—Displays network settings on your phone’s LCD screen,
plus options for adjusting your phone’s ringer sound and LCD screen
contrast. For more information, see the “Accessing Network Configuration
Data” section on page 10-3, the “Adjusting the Ringer Volume” section on
page 5-2, and the “Changing the LCD Screen Contrast” section on page 5-4.
