Accessing Cisco Unified IP Phone 7900 Series eLearning Tutorials
(SCCP phones only)
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7900 Series eLearning tutorials use audio and animation to demonstrate basic
calling features. You can access eLearning tutorials online (for several phone models) from your
personal computer. Look for the eLearning tutorial (English only) for your phone model in the
documentation list at the following location:
Note
Although eLearning tutorials for the 7965G and 7945G Cisco Unified IP Phone are not
available, refer to the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7900 Series eLearning tutorials for an overview
of the common IP phone features and functionality.
Safety and Performance Information
Refer to these sections for information about the impact of power outages and other devices on your
Cisco Unified IP Phone.
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.

OL-15896-01
Using External Devices
The following information applies when you use external devices with the Cisco Unified IP Phone:
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.
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 headsets that are fully compliant with the
EMC Directive [89/336/EC].

Removing the Hookswitch Clip (Required)
Before you use your phone, remove the hookswitch clip from the cradle area. With the clip removed, the
hookswitch lifts slightly when you pick up the handset.
Adjusting the Handset Rest (Optional)
Cisco recommends adjusting the handset rest, particularly when wall-mounting the phones, as this will
ensure that the receiver will not readily slip out of the cradle. See the table below for instructions.

3
Set the handset aside and pull the square plastic tab from the handset rest.
Rotate the tab 180 degrees.

3
Slide the tab back into the handset rest. An extension protrudes from the top of the rotated tab.
Return the handset to the handset rest.
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7965G and 7945G Phone Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 7.0
5
Adjusting the Footstand (Optional)
To change the angle of the phone base, adjust the footstand while pressing the footstand button.
Registering with TAPS
After your phone is connected to the network, your system administrator might ask you to
auto-register your phone using TAPS (Tool for Auto-Registered Phones Support). TAPS might be used
either for a new phone or to replace an existing phone.
To register with TAPS, pick up the handset, enter the TAPS extension provided by your system
administrator, and follow the voice prompts. You might need to enter your entire extension, including
the area code. After your phone displays a confirmation message, hang up. The phone will re-start.
Using a Headset
You can use a wired headset, or you can use a wireless headset in conjunction with the wireless headset
remote hookswitch control feature.
Headset Support
Although Cisco Systems performs limited internal testing of third-party headsets for use with the
Cisco Unified IP Phones, Cisco does not certify or support products from headset (or handset) vendors.
Cisco recommends the use of good quality external devices, for example, headsets that are screened
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 and two-way radios, some
audio noise or echo may still occur. An audible hum or buzz may be heard by either the remote party
or by both the remote party and the Cisco Unified IP Phone user. Humming or buzzing sounds can be
caused by a range of outside sources: for example, electric lights, electric motors, or large PC monitors.
See Using External Devices, page 3, for more information.
Note
In some cases, hum may be reduced or eliminated by using a local power cube or power
injector.
These environmental and hardware inconsistencies in the locations where Cisco Unified IP Phones are
deployed means that there is not a single headset solution that is optimal for all environments.
Cisco recommends that customers test headsets in their intended environment to determine
performance before making a purchasing decision and deploying en masse.
Audio Quality Subjective to the User
Beyond the physical, mechanical and technical performance, the audio portion of a headset must
sound good to the user and to the party on the far end. Sound quality is subjective and Cisco cannot
guarantee the performance of any headsets. However, a variety of headsets from leading headset
manufacturers have been reported to perform well with Cisco Unified IP Phones. See manufacturer’s
sites for details.

Understanding SIP vs. SCCP
Your phone can be configured to work with one of two signaling protocols: SIP (Session Initiation
Protocol) or SCCP (Skinny Call Control Protocol). Your system administrator determines this
configuration.
Phone features can vary depending on the protocol. This Phone Guide indicates which features are
protocol-specific. To learn which protocol your phone is using, you can ask your system administrator
or you can choose
> Model Information > Call Control Protocol on your phone.

Using Hold and Resume
You can hold and resume calls. When you put a call on hold, the Hold icon
appears next to the
caller ID and the corresponding line button flashes green
.
If the Hold Reversion feature is enabled for your phone, a call that you put on hold reverts back to
ringing after a certain period of time. The 'reverting' call remains on hold until you resume it or until
Hold Reversion times out.
Your phone indicates the presence of a reverting call by:
•
•
•
•
Alerting you at intervals with a single ring (or flash or beep, depending on your phone line setting).
Briefly displaying a “Hold Reversion” message in the status bar at the bottom of the phone screen.

2. If necessary, scroll to the appropriate call and press Resume.
Tips
•
•
Engaging the Hold feature typically generates music or a beeping tone.
If you receive an alert for an incoming call and a reverting call at the same time, by default your
phone will shift the focus of the phone screen to display the incoming call. Your system
administrator can change this focus priority setting.

If you use a shared line, Hold Reversion rings only on the phone that put the call on hold, not on
the other phones that share the line.

Tips
•
•
If your phone has on-hook transfer enabled, complete the call by hanging up.
If on-hook transfer is not enabled on your phone, hanging up without pressing Transfer again
places the call on hold.
•
You cannot use Transfer to redirect a call on hold. Press Resume to remove the call from hold
before transferring it.
Sending a Call to a Voice Message System
You can use iDivert to send an active, ringing, or on-hold call to your voice message system.
Depending on the type of call and your phone configuration, you can also use iDivert to send the call
to another party's voice message system.
•
•
If the call was originally sent to someone else's phone, iDivert allows you to redirect the call either
to your own voice message system or to the original called party’s voice message system. Your
system administrator must make this option available to you.
If the call was sent to you directly (not transferred or forwarded to you), or if your phone does
not support the option described above, using iDivert redirects the call to your voice message
system.
If you want to...
Then...
Send an active, ringing, or on-hold call Press iDivert. One of two things occurs:

•
•
The call is transferred to your voice message system.

Tip
If your phone displays a menu that disappears before you make your selection, you can press iDivert
again to re-display the menu. You can also ask your system administrator to configure a longer timeout
value.
Forwarding Calls to Another Number
You can use the call forwarding features to redirect incoming calls from your phone to another
number.
Your system administrator might allow you to choose from two types of call forwarding features:
•
•
Unconditional call forwarding (Call Forward All)—Applies to all calls that you receive.
Conditional call forwarding (Call Forward No Answer, Call Forward Busy, Call Forward No
Coverage)—Applies to certain calls that you receive, according to conditions.
You can access Call Forward All on your phone or from your User Options web pages; conditional
call forwarding features are accessible only from your User Options web pages. Your system
administrator determines which call forwarding features are available to you.
If you want to...
Then...
Set up Call Forward All on your
primary line
Press CFwdALL or Forward All and enter a target phone
number.
Cancel Call Forward All on your
primary line
Press CFwdALL or Forward All.
Verify that Call Forward All is
enabled on your primary line
Look for:
•
•
The call forward icon above your primary phone number.
The call forward target number in the status line.
Set up or cancel call forwarding
remotely, or for a non-primary line
1. Log in to your User Options web pages. (See Accessing
Your User Options Web Pages, page 64.)
2. Access your call forwarding settings. (See Controlling Line
Settings on the Web, page 72.)
Note When call forwarding is enabled for any line other than
the primary line, your phone does not provide you with
confirmation that calls are being forwarded. Instead, you
must confirm your settings in the User Options web pages.
Tips
•
Enter the call forward target number exactly as you would dial it from your phone. For example,
enter an access code or the area code, if necessary.
30
OL-15896-01
•
•
•
You can forward your calls to a traditional analog phone or to another IP phone, although your
system administrator might restrict the call forwarding feature to numbers within your company.
Call forwarding is phone line specific. If a call reaches you on a line where call forwarding is not
enabled, the call will ring as usual.
Your system administrator can enable a call forward override feature that allows the person
receiving your forwarded calls to reach you. With override enabled, a call placed from the target
phone to your phone is not forwarded, but rings through.
•
Your phone may reject your attempt to set up Call Forward All directly on the phone if the target
number that you enter would create a call forwarding loop or would exceed the maximum number
of links permitted in a call forwarding chain.
Using Do Not Disturb
You can use the Do Not Disturb (DND) feature to turn off only the ringer on your phone or to turn
off all audible and visual notifications of incoming calls. Your system administrator enables DND for
your phone.
When DND and Call Forward All are both enabled on your phone, calls are forwarded and the caller
does not hear a busy tone.
DND interaction with other types of calls includes:
•
•
DND does not affect intercom calls or non-intercom priority calls.
If both DND and auto-answer are enabled, only intercom calls will be auto-answered.

User Options Web Pages, page 64.
2. From the drop-down menu, choose User Options > Device.
3. Set the following options:
–
–
Do Not Disturb—Set to enable/disable DND.
DND Option—Choose either Call Reject (to turn off all
audible and visual notifications) or Ringer Off (to turn
off only the ringer).
–
DND Incoming Call Alert (applies to either DND
option set)—Set the alert to beep only, flash only,
disable the alert, or choose “None” (to use the “Alert”
setting configured by your system administrator).

Placing or Receiving Intercom Calls
You can make an intercom call to a target phone that auto-answers the call in speakerphone mode
with mute activated. The one-way intercom call allows you to deliver a short message to the recipient.
If the recipient’s handset or headset is in use, the audio is sent to the device that is use. Any current
call activity that your recipient is engaged in continues simultaneously.
The target destination receives an intercom-alert tone and can then choose to:
•
•
•
Listen to the caller with your microphone muted (you can hear the caller but the caller cannot hear
you).
End the intercom call by pressing the EndCall softkey with the intercom call in focus. Do this if
you do not want to hear the message.
Talk to the caller by pressing the active intercom button, and use either the handset, headset or
speaker. The intercom call becomes a two-way connection so that you can converse with the caller.
When using the intercom feature, be aware of the following:
•
•
•
•
From an intercom line, you can only dial other intercom lines.
You can use only one intercom line at a time.
When your active call is being monitored or recorded, you cannot receive or place intercom calls.
You cannot place an intercom call on hold.
Note
If you log into your desk phone every day using your Extension Mobility profile, make sure
that your system administrator configures your Extension Mobility profile to include the
intercom feature.

Storing and Retrieving Parked Calls
You can park a call when you want to store the call so that you or someone else can retrieve it from
another phone in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager system (for example, a phone at a
co-worker’s desk or in a conference room). You can park a call by using these methods:
•
•
Call Park—Use the Park softkey to store the call. Your phone displays the call park number where
the system stored your call. You must record this number and then use the same number to retrieve
the call.
Directed Call Park—Use the Transfer softkey to direct the call to an available directed call park
number that you dial or speed dial. To retrieve the call from a directed call park number, dial the
park retrieval prefix, then dial or speed dial the same directed call park number.
You can use a Directed Call Park button to speed-dial the directed call park number and to
monitor whether a directed call park number is occupied or available.
If you want to...
Then...

Your system administrator can assign Directed Call Park buttons to available line buttons on your
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7965G that has a Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module (the Cisco
Unified IP Phone 7945G does not support the Cisco Unified IP Phone Expansion Module).
You can dial directed call park numbers if you do not have Directed Call Park buttons on your
phone. However, you will not be able to see the status of the directed call park number.
Logging Out of Hunt Groups
If your organization receives a large number of incoming calls, you might be a member of a hunt group.
A hunt group includes a series of directory numbers that share the incoming call load. When the first
directory number in the hunt group is busy, the system hunts for the next available directory number
in the group and directs the call to that phone.
When you are away from your phone, you can prevent hunt group calls from ringing your phone by
logging out of hunt groups.
If you want to...
Then...
Log out of hunt groups to
Press HLog or Hunt Group. Your phone screen displays, “Logged
temporarily block hunt group out of Hunt Group.”

Using a Shared Line
Your system administrator might ask you to use a shared line if you:
•
•
•
Have multiple phones and want one phone 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 phone 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.
42
OL-15896-01
Sharing Call Information and Barging
Phones that share a line each display information about calls that are placed and received on the shared
exceptions.)
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 Using Barge to Add Yourself to a Shared-Line Call, page 43.
Privacy
If you do not want coworkers who share your line to see information about your calls, enable the Privacy
feature. Doing so also prevents coworkers from barging your calls. See Preventing Others from Viewing
or Barging a Shared-Line Call, page 44.
Note
The maximum number of calls that a shared line supports can vary by phone.
Using Barge to Add Yourself to a Shared-Line Call
You can use barge features (cBarge or Barge) to add yourself to calls on your shared line. (Calls must
be non-private calls. See Using a Shared Line, page 42.)
Understanding Barge Features
cBarge and Barge
Depending on how your phone is configured, you can add yourself to a non-private call on a shared
line using either cBarge or Barge:
•
cBarge converts the call into a standard conference, allowing you to add new participants. (See
Making Conference Calls, page 32 for information about standard conferences.)
•
Barge allows you to add yourself to the call but does not convert the call into a conference or allow
you to add new participants.
Single-button and Multi-touch Barge
Your system administrator determines whether the barge feature on your phone (cBarge or Barge)
operates as a single-button or multi-touch feature.
•
•
Single button barge allows you to press a line button to barge a call (if only one call is on the line).
Multi-touch barge allows you to view call information before barging.

Tips
•
When you barge a call, other parties hear a beep tone announcing your presence. With cBarge,
other parties hear a brief audio interruption and the phone screen changes to display conference
details.
•
•
If a phone that is using the shared line has Privacy enabled, call information and barge softkeys
will not appear on the other phones 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.
Preventing Others from Viewing or Barging a Shared-Line Call
If you share a phone line, you can use the Privacy feature to prevent others who share the line from
viewing or barging (adding themselves to) your calls.
If you want to...

OL-15896-01
Tips
•
If the phone that shares your line has Privacy enabled, you can make and receive calls using the
shared line as usual.
•
The Privacy feature applies to all shared lines on your phone. Consequently, if you have multiple
shared lines and Privacy is enabled, coworkers cannot view or barge calls on any of your shared
lines.
Using BLF to Determine a Line State
Busy Lamp Field features (BLF) allow you to view the state of a phone line that is associated with a
speed-dial button, call log, or directory listing on your phone. If you use BLF Pickup, you can answer
a ringing call for the line that you are monitoring. Your system administrator determines which BLF
features are configured for your phone.
If you want to...
Then...
See the state of a line
listed in a call log or
directory
Look for one of these indicators next to the line number:
Line is in-use.
Line is idle.
Line is in Do Not Disturb state.
BLF indicator unavailable for this line.
See the state of a
speed-dial line
Look for BLF indicators next to the line number:

Tips
•
Your phone might play an audible indicator to alert you when a call is ringing on the monitored
line (BLF Pickup only).
•
BLF Pickup answers the oldest ringing call first (if the line that you are monitoring has more than
one ringing call).
Making and Receiving Secure Calls
Depending on how your system administrator has configured your phone system, your phone might
support making and receiving secure calls.
Your phone can support these types of calls:
•
•
Authenticated call—The identities of all phones participating in the call have been verified.
Encrypted call—The phone is receiving and transmitting encrypted audio (your conversation)
within the Cisco IP network. Encrypted calls are also authenticated.
•
•
Protected call—The phone is receiving and transmitting encrypted audio (your conversation) with
another phone. A protected call provides a similar level of security as an encrypted call, but adds
additional security. If the call is protected at both ends, a security tone plays at the beginning of
the conversation. Some features, such as conference calling, shared lines, Extension Mobility, and
join across lines are not available when protected calling is configured. Protected calls are not
authenticated.
Non-secure call—At least one of the participating phones or the connection does not support these
security features, or the phones cannot be verified.
If you want to...
Then...
Check the security level of a call or Look for a security icon in the top right corner of the call

end of the connection is also secure at the beginning of the call.
When encrypted calling is configured on your phone, the lock
icon is displayed. However, the conversation is protected only
when the security tone plays at the beginning of a call,
indicating that the call is protected on both ends of the call. If
your call is connected to a non-protected phone, the secure
tone is not played.
Determine if secure calls can be
made in your company
Contact your system administrator.
Note
There are interactions, restrictions, and limitations that affect how security features work on
your phone. For more information, ask your system administrator.
Tracing Suspicious Calls
If you are receiving suspicious or malicious calls, your system administrator can add the Malicious Call
Identification (MCID) feature to your phone. This feature enables you to identify an active call as
suspicious, which initiates a series of automated tracking and notification messages.
If you want to...
Then...
Notify your system
Press MCID or Malicious Call ID.
administrator about a
suspicious or harassing call
Your phone plays a tone and displays the message, “MCID
successful.”
Prioritizing Critical Calls
(SCCP phones only.)
In some specialized environments, such as military or government offices, you might need to make and
receive urgent or critical calls. If you have the need for this specialized call handling, your system
administrator can add Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) to your phone.
Cisco Unified IP Phone 7965G and 7945G Phone Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 7.0
47
Keep these terms in mind:
•
•
Precedence indicates the priority associated with a call.
Preemption is the process of ending an existing, lower priority call while accepting a higher
priority call that is sent to your phone.
If you...
Then...
Want to choose a priority
Contact your system administrator for a list of
(precedence) level for an outgoing call corresponding precedence numbers for calls.
Want to make a priority (precedence) Enter the MLPP access number (provided by your system

administrator) followed by the phone number.
Hear a special ring (faster than usual) You are receiving a priority (precedence) call. An MLPP icon
or special call waiting tone
on your phone screen indicates the priority level of the call.
Look for an MLPP icon on your phone screen:
Priority call
Want to view priority level of a call
Medium priority (immediate) call
High priority (flash) call
Highest priority (flash override) or Executive
Override call
Higher priority calls are displayed at the top of your call list.
If you do not see an MLPP icon, the priority level of the call
is normal (routine).
Hear a continuous tone interrupting
your call
You or the other party are receiving a call that must preempt
the current call. Hang up immediately to allow the higher
priority call to ring through.
Tips
•
When you make or receive an MLPP-enabled call, you will hear special ring tones and call waiting
tones that differ from the standard tones.
•
•
If you enter an invalid MLPP access number, a verbal announcement will alert you of the error.
An MLPP-enabled call retains its priority and preemptive status when you:
