Configure Lync Presence
The Lync presence feature enables you to monitor the status of other remote users and phones. By
adding remote users to your Buddy List, you can monitor changes in the status of remote users in real
time or you can monitor remote users as Favorites on the VVX phone and expansion module. The table
Using the Presence Feature lists the parameters you can configure. Note that other phone users can
block you from monitoring their phones.
Note: Lync Not Supported on VVX Expansion Modules with the Paper Display
The VVX Expansion Modules with paper displays do not support Lync, and you cannot configure
Lync features to work on the expansion modules with paper displays. You can only configure VVX
Color expansion modules to work with Lync.
For more information about the Lync presence feature, see Feature Profile 84538: Using Polycom VVX
Business Media Phones with Microsoft Lync Server 2013.
