Chapter 9: Aux Buttons and Bridged Lines

You can use the Aux buttons to monitor and manage extensions other than your own. Other
people's extensions that you manage from your phone are called bridged lines. If an Aux button
is associated with a bridged line, you can press the Aux button to select it as you would with
a regular call appearance.

Whenever you need to access a bridged line just press the corresponding Aux button.

• If a line is on Hold, pressing the Aux button resumes the call.

• If a line is ringing, pressing the Aux button answers the call.

• If your boss or someone else for whom you have a bridged extension is on the line

(Aux button LED is lighted), you can press that Aux button to join the call. For example,
when the bridged extension is in use, and you get an incoming call to that same line,
you can conference the caller into the existing call.

The icon on the Aux button label for a bridged call appearance shows the status of that call
appearance. An idle call icon means that there is no current call on that line. An in-use bridged
call icon means that the owner of the line is using it.

Use the Aux button for anything you need to do with a bridged line - to answer a call, to resume a
call on hold, or to join an existing call. Use the Aux button LED and the icon on the Aux button
label to view the status of a bridged line.

Answering a call on a bridged line

Answering a call on a bridged line is basically the same as a call on a primary line. If the ringing

line is selected, you can answer by picking up the handset or by pressing Speaker or Headset

or Answer.

If an Aux button flashes, press that button or press the Answer softkey.
If the Aux Shift button is lit, the incoming call is on the "hidden" page of Aux buttons.
In this case, press Aux Shift to view the hidden page, then press the flashing Aux
button of the incoming call.
