4.4 Make a Phone Call Using Office Communicator 2007 R2
Each contact in your Contact List has a number that you can call by clicking the
Call
button associated
with the contact. The number is the contact’s work number by default, but can change based on the
number most recently used to call the contact. If you have the USB cable connected between your
IP8540 (with S/W version 3.5.6907.0) and your computer, you can place calls directly from Office
Communicator 2007 R2.
