Introduction: Appearance Buttons/Menu
1.12.5 Line Appearance Buttons
Line appearance buttons allow you to make and receive calls on a specific telephone line connected to your
telephone system. The button also allows you to see when the line is in use by other users.
For incoming calls, the telephone system still determines the destination for the call. That may be a user or group.
However, if you have a line appearance button for the line, you will see that there is a call alerting and can answer
it if required.
