or the Hold soft
key. The call will be placed on hold and
this will be indicated on the display. Press
the
Resume soft key to retrieve the call.
Multiple Calls on Hold
If multiple calls are on hold on a single line
key, use the arrow keys to switch between
the calls then press the
Resume soft key to
retrieve the desired call. If more than two
calls are on hold on a single key, an indica-
tion will appear on the display, for example
“2/3” shows that this is the second call out
of three calls.
If calls are on hold on more than one line
key, the details of the calls on any line key
can be viewed by pressing that line key and
holding it down for a few seconds. If a line
key is pressed briefly, the first call on hold
on that line key will be retrieved.
When your SoundPoint IP 501 phone is configured for silent ring,
press the ringing Line key or the
Answer soft key and you will
answer the call. If your handset is off hook, the call is routed to
the handset. If your handset is on hook, the call is routed to the
speaker.
