Configurable Positioning of Programmed Softkeys
By default, when programming softkeys for the 6867i and 6869i IP phones, the softkey is automatically placed (i.e. col-
lapses) into the first available softkey slot/position on the LCD display. For example, for the 6867i, if top softkeys 1
through 44 are set to ”None” on and top softkey 3 is programmed as a speeddial softkey with the label “Home”, after sav-
ing the settings, the “Home” speeddial softkey will appear on the first top softkey position on the LCD display.
Administrators now have the option to configure programmed softkey positioning behavior. Enabling the “collapsed
softkey screen” parameter (i.e. defining the parameter as “1” in the configuration files) will maintain the previous behav-
ior (as per the example above) for the 6867i and 6869i. Disabling the parameter (i.e. defining the parameter as “0”) will
cause the 6867i/6869i IP phone to retain the defined position of the programmed softkey. Using the example above, if
the “collapsed softkey screen” parameter is disabled, the “Home” speeddial softkey will retain its position appearing on
the third top softkey position on the LCD display.
For Programmable Keys:
9. In the “Hard Key” field, select the programmable key type you want to configure.
Reference: For available type values on each IP phone model, see Appendix A, the section, “Softkey/Programmable Key/Keypad Key/Expan-
sion Module Key/Hard Key Parameters” on pageA-174.
10. In the "Value" field, enter a value to associate with the programmable key. For example, for a Speeddial value, you can enter a number you
want to use for the Speeddial key, or 12345+ as a Speeddial prefix.
11. In the "Line" field, select the line for which you want to associate the programmable key.
12. Click Save Settings to save your changes.
