Verifying Phone Startup
After receiving power and network connectivity, the phone executes a boot-up sequence.
During this sequence, the display shows the Cisco logo. All of the lights on the phone will
flash. After the sequence, which should take about five seconds, the phone will display the
standard menu for the phone. The date, name and number of the phone appear on the top line
of the LCD screen. At the bottom of the LCD screen, softkeys appear over their associated soft
buttons.
If the phone does not display this screen, confirm your installation and connections. If these
are correct, try unplugging the phone and plugging it back in again. If you still don’t see the
display, then contact your Phone Administrator or Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP).
