4 Section I: GETTING STARTED A. Connecting your IP phone: 1. Your new Cisco IP Phone will be connected to the network through your computer. The existing network cable connected to your PC needs to be removed from the PC and connected to the middle port (10/100 SW) on your phone. (This cable will go to the network jack on the wall.) The 6 Cat5 cable provided to you will connect your PC and your phone (the outside port marked 10/100 PC). After you have connected your phone, it will go through a set up period. During this time you need to let it go through its boot up without disturbing it. Your phone will be ready to use when the date and time appear on your LCD screen. 4

The light strip at the top of the handset blinks when the phone rings and can be set to remain lit when you receive a voice mail message. 2 Phone Screen Displays feature such as the time, date, your phone number, caller ID, line/call status and soft key tabs. If you have programmed speed dial buttons, these will show up next to the button that was programmed. When you are on an active call this area will display current calls per line, including caller ID, call duration, and call state. 3 Model Type Model of your Cisco IP Phone. 4 Programmable buttons Depending on the configuration, programmable buttons provide access to: - Phone lines (Line buttons) - Speed dial numbers (Names show on display) The buttons illuminate to indicate status: Green, Steady---Active call on this line (off hook) Green, Blinking---Call on hold on this line Amber, Steady---Privacy feature enabled 5

7 C. Additional Information: Dial 9 for outside calls. If you move your phone, your individual settings will stay with the phone. Dialing 911 and 9911 will both work. If called on accident remain on the phone and explain so they don t send help. If you move offices you MUST let IT Dept. know so they can make sure they have the correct information for you in case of an emergency so 911 will know the correct location if you called from your phone. To dial internally between two Cisco phones it will be 5-digit dialing. Reminder: Your existing voic s will be gone after your department cuts over to new system. If you want to save any of the numbers or messages please go through them prior to your scheduled cutover date. 7
