Language
The Language option allows you to change the language of menu options and other text that displays on
the handset.
Time & Date
Select the Time and Date option on the Preference menu to get to the Time and Date screen. You can
choose the Clock Date, Clock Time, Clock Order, or you can disable/enable the time and date display.
Headset Memory
The Headset Memory option enables the handset to remember that it has a headset plugged into it. You
may enable or disable this option. If you enable it, you do not need to select the Headset option from
the Speaker soft key menu every time you plug in a headset. Enable this option if you use a headset
most of the time.
Corporate Directory
You use the Corporate Directory option when you want to display entries in the corporate directory
chronologically instead of alphabetically. See Searching and Saving with the Corporate Directory.
Background
The Background option enables you to change the background characteristics of the display. Options are
customized by facility.
Screen Capture
Not available. This is a development and documentation utility.
Auto Answer
When the handset is in the Auto Answer Mode, an incoming call will be answered automatically after
the first ring. When you select this option, you are given the option to auto answer SIP calls and mute
the microphone for auto answered calls.
On-Hook Dialing
With the On-Hook dialing option, you can enable or disable the ability to dial a call before getting a dial
tone, also called pre-dialing. If disabled, you must press Start before dialing a number.
Multi Key Answer
The Multi Key Answer option enables you to answer incoming calls by pressing any keypad key. It is
disabled by default. See Multi Key Answer Feature for more information.
