Answer Calls - Cisco 6800 Series User Manual

Calls
The call is made with the line in focus.
If the existing number of calls on the line in focus is equal to the value set in the Call Appearances Per Line
field in the phone web page, the speed-dial call is made from the next available line.

Step 2 Change the focus to the line that you prefer.
Step 3
Press the speed-dial key to make a call.

Dial an International Number
You can dial international calls when you prefix the phone number with a plus (+) sign.
Procedure
Step 1 Press and hold star (*) for at least 1 second.
The plus (+) sign is displayed as the first digit in the phone number.
Step 2
Enter the phone number.
Step 3 Press Call or wait 10 seconds after the last key press to automatically place the call.
Secure Calls
Your administrator can take steps to protect your calls from tampering by people outside your company. When
a lock icon is displayed on your phone during a call, your phone call is secure. Depending upon how your
phone is configured, you may have to sign on before you make a call or before a security tone plays over your
handset.
