Features of Yealink desk phones
This article is about the features of Yealink® desk phones and how they interact with the services and features of One Net Business. Information applies to Yealink SIP-T42S, SIP-T46S, SIP-T48S, SIP-T53W, SIP-T54W and SIP-T57W unless stated otherwise.
How does my desk phone interact with One Net Business?
There are several features of your desk phone that interact directly with One Net Business.
- You can use Feature Access Codes (FACs) to do tasks including pulling a call onto your desk phone, parking a call or switching call forwarding on and off.
-
Some buttons of your desk phone interact with specific One Net Business services.
Show me an example
For example, when you press the DND (Do Not Disturb) button on your desk phone, your availability changes to do not disturb for all your devices and locations. If you change your availability in another location, for example in the One Net app, your availability is also changed on your desk phone.
- Your desk phone has direct access to your One Net Business call history and your company's main phone book, so you always see the latest information.
-
You can personalise the programmable buttons of your desk phone using One Net Manager.
Buttons of Yealink desk phones
Your Yealink desk phone comes with a set of pre-configured buttons but each button can be personalised.
What is personalising?
Personalising is choosing which functions your programmable buttons do. You can personalise desk phones in One Net Manager. The settings are part of your configuration file.
Don't personalise buttons locally on your desk phone
Your desk phone downloads and refreshes your configuration file every day. This means that anything you set locally on your desk phone, using the phone's buttons and menu, will be deleted.
Always personalise your desk phone in One Net Manager.
