Line Keys and Softkeys
Park/Pickup Keys
The IP phone has a park and pickup call feature that allows you to park a call and
pickup a call when required. There are two ways a user can configure this feature:
• Using a static configuration
• Using a programmable configuration (on the softkeys)
The IP phone supports the Park/Pickup feature on the Asterisk, BroadWorks,
Sylantro, and ININ PBX servers.
The following paragraphs describe the park and pickup methods of configuration on
the IP phones.
Park/Pickup Static Configuration
You can configure a static configuration for parking and picking up a call using the
Aastra Web UI at Basic Settings-> Preferences.
By entering the appropriate value in the "Park Call" and "Pickup Parked Call"
fields, you tell the phone where to park a live call and where to pickup the parked
call.
On the IP phone UI, the static configuration method displays the following:
• When a call comes in, and you pickup the handset, the default label of "Park"
displays on the Phone UI.
• After pressing the "Park" softkey to park the call, the default label of
"Pickup" displays on the phone UI.
Note: The IP phone accepts both methods of configuration. However, to avoid
redundancy, Aastra Telecom recommends you configure either a static
configuration or a programmable configuration.
Note: On the 57i handset, pressing Ï displays the "Park" and "Pickup" labels.
