Getting Started Your Phone’s Backlight Operation

Your Phone’s Backlight Operation

To save power, the backlight on your phone’s screen dims after a certain amount of time if the phone is

not in use. After hours and when the phone has not been used for a certain length of time, the phone

display goes completely blank. The length of time before the backlight dims and the after-business

hours that determine when the backlight is off are configured by your ShoreTel administrator.

The phone screen automatically returns to partial brightness at the start of business hours. At any

time, if you press a button on the phone or the phone receives an incoming call, the phone screen

returns to full brightness.

Adjusting the Display Contrast

1. With the phone on hook, press and hold the button.

The LED should not light and you shouldn't hear any tones; if this isn't the case, lift and replace the

handset.

2. Press the or key on the navigation key pad to increase or decrease contrast.

Reducing Glare on the Phone’s Screen

To reduce glare on your phone’s display screen, you can adjust the tilt angle of the stand on the back

of your phone. Detailed instructions are provided in the Quick Install Guide packaged with your phone.

Setting up Your Phone

To use all the functions of your ShoreTel IP phone, your phone needs to be assigned to you and you

need to know your password for the voicemail system. You can determine if your phone is assigned to

you as follows:

 If the phone displays your name and extension, your ShoreTel administrator has already assigned

your phone to you, and you do not need to assign your extension to your phone. In this state, you

can receive calls, make calls, and check for new messages using visual voicemail.

 If the phone displays “Available” and the date and time, use the procedure in Assigning Your

Extension to the Phone to assign your extension to your phone. Until your phone is assigned, you

can place internal calls by dialing a number or using the Directory, but you cannot receive calls or

use visual voicemail, and you might not be able to place external calls.

 If the phone displays “Anonymous” and the date and time, this extension is assigned as the

primary phone for someone who is currently assigned to some other phone or endpoint. You can

assign your extension to the phone by following the procedure in Assigning Your Extension to the

Phone.
