Operator Console Mode
When a PCS 580/570/560 is being used by a receptionist or switchboard operator the Operator Console
Mode can be enabled to provide the operator with additional data to assist with the efficient handling of
calls. The additional data is displayed within the User’s Favourites screen and can display a User’s
forwarding settings, DND settings, when the User is logged out, when the User is on a call and who they
are talking to, when a User is listening to voicemail, the number of new voicemail messages awaiting a
User/Department and the number of missed calls received by a User/Department. Please refer to the
relevant user manual for further details.
The Operator Console Mode is configured as follows:
1
Install an Operator Console licence as described from page 35.
2
Open the User configuration form for the User who wishes to use Operator Console Mode.
3
Select the Licences page
4
From the Operator Console Licence list box select
either:
a
Yes - to apply the licence to this User and
enable Operator Console Mode, or
b
PCS Partner only – this option can be used
when a PCS 60 is partnering a PCS 5xx IP
phone. By selecting this option the Operator
Console Mode information will only be
displayed on the PCS 60. This will prevent
the IP phone from running out of memory
when the User has configured many speed
dials on a very active system.

PCS 410/400/100
Power to a PCS 410/400/100 is supplied by Power over Ethernet (PoE). This can be provided either by a
third party PoE switch or directly via a LAN port available on a Call Server or 5330 Phone Module.
Alternatively, the individual STEPS Power over Ethernet PSU can be used.
The PCS 400 can also be powered by a standalone PCS PSU connected directly to the back of the phone.
When using these individual power supplies, it is recommended that when powering on/off the PCS 400
that this is done via the power block not via the connection to the phone. Please note: if a PCMCIA card
is required in the PCS 400 a PCS PSU must be used.
