13. Frequently Asked Questions
1. Hook-switch Operation
The Uniden IP phone’s hook-switch is used for re-origination only. That is, when the hook- switch is
pressed and released, the existing call is released and a new call is originated. The hook- switch cannot
be used for a flash operation (i.e., by pressing and releasing quickly). To initiate a flash operation, the IP
