10 Finding Additional Information You can access the most current conference station documentation on the World Wide Web at this URL: You can access the Cisco website at this URL: You can access international Cisco websites from this URL: Safety and Performance Information Refer to these sections for information about the impact of power outages and other devices on your conference station. Power Outage Your accessibility to emergency service through the phone is dependent on the phone being powered. If there is an interruption in the power supply, Service and Emergency Calling Service dialing will not function until power is restored. In the case of a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or reconfigure equipment before using the Service or Emergency Calling Service dialing. Using External Devices The following information applies when you use external devices with the conference station: Cisco recommends the use of good quality external devices (such as headsets) that are shielded against unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals. Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as mobile phones or two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, Cisco recommends that you take one or more of the following actions: Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals. Route the external device cables away from the source of the RF or AF signals. Use shielded cables for the external device, or use cables with a better shield and connector. Shorten the length of the external device cable. Apply ferrites or other such devices on the cables for the external device. 2 OL

11 Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of the system because Cisco has no control over the quality of external devices, cables, and connectors. The system will perform adequately when suitable devices are attached using good quality cables and connectors. Caution In European Union countries, use only external speakers and microphones that are fully compliant with the EMC Directive [89/336/EC].

Using a Shared Line Your system administrator might ask you to use a shared line if you: Have multiple conference stations and want one conference station number Share call-handling tasks with coworkers Handle calls on behalf of a manager Understanding Shared Lines Remote-in-Use Icon The remote-in-use icon appears when another conference station that shares your line has a connected call. You can place and receive calls as usual on the shared line, even when the remote-in-use icon appears. Sharing Call Information and Barging Conference stations that share a line each display information about calls that are placed and received on the shared line. This information might include caller ID and call duration. When call information is visible in this way, you and coworkers who share a line can add yourselves to calls using either Barge or cbarge. See Adding Yourself to a Shared-Line Call, page 26. Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7937G Phone Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager

34 Privacy If you do not want coworkers who share your line to see information about your calls, enable the Privacy feature. The Privacy feature also prevents coworkers from barging your calls. See Preventing Others from Viewing or Barging a Shared-Line Call, page 27. Note The maximum number of calls that a shared line supports can vary by conference station.

If you hang up after using Barge, the remaining parties hear a disconnect tone and the original call continues. If you hang up after using cbarge, the call remains a conference call (provided at least three participants remain on the line). Tips If a conference station that is using the shared line has Privacy enabled, call information and barge softkeys will not appear on the other conference stations that share the line. You will be disconnected from a call that you have joined using Barge if the call is put on hold, transferred, or turned into a conference call. 26 OL
