Additional Features
Preferred Line and Preferred Line Timeout
The 6757i has a feature called “preferred line” and “preferred line timeout”. If you enable the
preferred line parameter on your phone, after a call ends (incoming or outgoing), the display
switches back to the preferred line. Next time you go off-hook to make another call, you pickup
on the preferred line. You can enable the preferred line parameter using the Aastra Web UI at
the location, Basic Settings->Preferences->General. You can also set a preferred timeout
parameter that specifies the number of seconds it takes for the phone to switch back to the
preferred line.
The following table provides the behavior of the preferred line focus feature with other features
on the phone.
Note: You can configure “Preferred Line” and “Preferred Line Timeout” using
the Aastra Web UI only.
