VCX User Interface Overview

81

 

Each option (except 

Log Out

) is associated with a set of tabbed pages 

shown on the right side of the window. When you select an option, the 
set of tabbed pages changes. Click on a tab to display its contents.

Each tabbed page includes a text box that describes the purpose of the 
page. Each text box also includes a 

Help

 button. If you need more 

information on a page, click 

Help

 to launch the VCX User Interface 

online Help system.

The following list provides a brief description of the features you can 
manage on each tabbed page. For detailed information, refer to the 
online Help. Note that some features must be enabled on the phone after 
configuration in the VCX User Interface. These features are noted in the 
list.

Welcome

 

Welcome

 — Provides an initial welcoming page that can include 

current system information, such as mailbox capacity, and the 
number of new and saved messages.

My Information

 — Displays name and address information that 

you can modify as necessary. Also enables you to change the size 
of the font used in your telephone’s Display Panel.

Web Login

 — Allows you to change the password you use to 

access the VCX User Interface. 

Directory

 — Allows you to search a directory of other system 

users to find name and extension information. The directory can be 
either local (users whose phones are connected to the same VCX 
call processor) or global (all the users in a multi-site enterprise that 
includes regional, branch, and local offices). Search criteria can 
include first name, last name, extension, or location. If you do not 
enter search criteria, all users are displayed.

My Extensions

 

Call History

 — Allows you to view the call history for your phone, 

for example, the calling and called parties, and call duration.

Ring Patterns

 — Enables you to set distinctive ringing tones to 

identify the source (inside, outside, or private) of incoming calls. 
Inside calls are calls that originate from within the VCX network. 
Outside calls are calls that originate from outside the VCX network. 
Private calls are anonymous calls or calls with caller ID blocked.
