Applications

Phone Applications
Phone applications allow you to access the following:
• Call History
• Preferences
• Accessories
• Administrator Settings (for system administrators only).
• Phone Information

Call History
Call History allows you to view information about the last 150 calls on your phone. Individual calls
and call groups are listed chronologically from the most recent call to the oldest one. (If your phone
has multiple lines, calls on all lines are added together. The oldest calls over the 150-call limit are
dropped from the history.)
In the Call History screen, the line information, such as “Line: 5623,” is shown in the upper
right corner to indicate the line name or number for which the call history is displayed.
For each call record or call group, an icon to the left of the caller ID shows the call type:
• Received—
• Placed—
• Missed—
If the caller ID is unavailable, “Unknown” is displayed, and the phone number is listed.
Calls for the same caller ID and phone number are grouped together only when if they occur in
chronological order and do not have calls associated. For each group, the time of the latest call and
the number of calls, such as “(3),” are displayed:
• Incoming (Received) and outgoing (Placed) calls are grouped together.
• Missed calls are grouped together in a separate group.
Hunt group and multiparty calls show an icon to the right of the caller ID that differentiates the call
from a normal call, and these calls are not grouped even when they are next to each other in the list.

Cisco Unified IP Phone User Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 8.5 (SCCP and SIP) 23

There are two types of call-forwarding features that your system administrator may set up on
your phone:
• 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, and is accessible
only from your User Options web pages.

• 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.
• 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 set up other call-forward options that do the following:
– Allow calls placed from the call forward target number to your phone to ring through, rather
than be forwarded.
– Prevent you from creating a call-forward loop or exceeding the maximum number of links in
a call forwarding chain.

Call Park
Call Park allows you to use your phone to park (temporarily store) a call, which you can then retrieve
from another phone (such as a phone at a co-worker’s desk or in a conference room).
There are two ways you can park a call:
• Park—Allows you to park an active call that you answered on your phone, and retrieve it using
another phone in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager system.
• Directed Call Park—Allows you to park and retrieve an active call in two different ways:
– Assisted Directed Call Park—Allows you to park an active call by pressing a feature button,
which your system administrator sets up as a speed dial line.
With this type of directed call, you can monitor the status of the line (in-use, idle, or Do Not
Disturb) using Line Status indicators.
– Manual Directed Call Park—Allows you to park an active call by transferring it to a Directed
Call number, which your system administrator sets up.
You retrieve the call at another phone by dialing a park retrieval prefix number (provided by
your system administrator) and then dialing the Directed Call number you used to park
the call.
Your system administrator sets up either the Directed Call Park or the Park feature on your phone,
but not both.

Park and Retrieve a Call Using Assisted Directed Call Park

1. During a call, press a Directed Call Park button displaying an idle Line Status indicator.
2. Retrieve the call, from any other Cisco Unified IP Phone in your network as follows:
a. Enter the park retrieval prefix.
b. Dial the Directed Call number.
For example, if the park retrieval prefix is “99” and the Directed Call number is “1234,”
enter 991234.
If you do not retrieve the call within a certain amount of time (set by your system administrator)
you will receive an alert tone, at which time you can:
– Press the Resume softkey to resume the call on your phone.
– Retrieve the call from another phone.
If you fail to retrieve or resume the call within a specified amount of time, the call is directed to
another destination (set up by your system administrator), such as voicemail.

Call Pickup
Call Pickup allows you to answer a call that is ringing on a co-worker’s phone by redirecting the call
to your phone.
You might use Call Pickup if you share call-handling tasks with co-workers.
There are three ways you can pick up a call:
• Pickup—Allows you to answer a call that is ringing on another phone within your call pickup
group.
If multiple calls are available for pick up, your phone picks up the oldest call first (the call that
has been ringing for the longest time).
• Group Pickup—Allows you to answer a call on a phone that is outside your call pickup group by:
– Using a group pickup number (provided by your system administrator).
– Dialing the ringing phone’s number.
• Other Pickup—Allows you to answer a call that is ringing on another phone within in your call
pickup group or in an associated call pickup group.
Your system administrator sets up the call pickup group you are in, and the call pickup softkeys
depending on your call-handling needs and work environment.

You can also monitor and pick up ringing calls using Line Status indicators if your system
administrator has set up Line Status indicators on speed-dial buttons for you. Line Status indicators
allow you to see if a line associated with a speed-dial button is idle, in-use, in a Do Not Disturb state,
or ringing.

phone. You can assign a service to a speed-dial button from the User Options web page.
The services available for your phone depend on how the system administrator set up the phone system
and which services you are subscribed to. For more information, see your system administrator.
If only one service is set up, the service opens by default. If more than one service is set up, select an
option from the menu.
Select a service by using one of these feature buttons:

Product Safety, Security, Accessibility, and
Related Information

Safety and Performance Information

Power outages and other devices can affect 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.

External Devices
Cisco recommends using 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 these 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 speakers, microphones, and headsets that
are fully compliant with the EMC Directive [89/336/EC].

Cisco Unified IP Phone User Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager 8.5 (SCCP and SIP) 87
Bluetooth Wireless Headset Performance
The Cisco Unified IP Phone 8945 supports Bluetooth Class 2 technology when the headsets support
Bluetooth. Bluetooth enables low-bandwidth wireless connections within a range of 30 feet (10
meters). The best performance is in the 3- to 6-foot (1- to 2-meter) range. You can connect up to five
headsets, but only the last one connected is used as the default.
Because there can be potential interference issues, it is recommended that you move 802.11b/g devices,
Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and large metal objects away from the wireless headset.
For a Bluetooth wireless headset to work, it does not need to be within direct line-of-sight of the phone,
but some barriers, such as walls or doors, and interference from other electronic devices, can affect
the connection.

FCC Compliance Statements

The Federal Communications Commission requires compliance statements for the following:
• FCC Part 15.21
• FCC RF Radiation Exposure
• FCC Receivers and Class B Digital

environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure
compliance. This transmitter must be at least 20 cm from the user and must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
