28 CHAPTER 3: VCX V7000 BASIC TELEPHONES — MODELS 3101 AND 3101SP
VCX Telephone
Model 3101 and
3101SP Overview
Your VCX 3101 Basic Telephones must be configured to work in an IP
network. This means your phone must be assigned an IP address so it can
communicate with other VCX phones and devices. Typically, your
administrator assigns IP parameters, including an IP address, as part of
the installation process.
Your administrator must also assign a password for your telephone. This
password associates your telephone extension (and mailbox) with your
account. This may allow you to configure another VCX phone in the
system to duplicate your primary phone (see the note below). This means
if you are away from your primary phone (for example, in a different
office), you can program the local phone to use your extension. Any calls
made to your extension will ring in both locations and you can access
your mailbox from either phone.
It is also possible for an administrator to lock an extension to a particular
phone. If this is the case, you cannot program the phone to use your
extension.
To program the local phone with your primary phone’s extension:
1 Press Feature + 600 + 5 + 6 to log out of local phone.
2 Press Feature + 600 + 5 + 4 and enter the number of your primary
phone.
3 Press Feature + 600 + 5 + 6 and enter the password for your primary
phone. This associates your extension with the local phone and logs you
in to the network.
The VCX Model 3101 Basic Telephone does not include a microphone,
which means it does not support speaker phone operation. The VCX
Model 3101SP Basic Telephone has a microphone and supports speaker
phone operation. All other features operate the same on the two
telephones.
