Configuring Favorites
End-users can easily log in to the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant (if installed) and then choose User Options from the menu bar to navigate to User Options. When logged in and viewing User Options, you can access a User Guide, change the locale for the windows, and access additional configuration options from the Related Links drop-down list, including speed dials, phone services, and line-specific options (call forwarding, message-waiting indicators, and ring patterns).
To access phone-specific features, users must select a device after logging in (User Options > Device). When a device is selected, the user can.
To manage your Speed-Dials (Favorites):
Step 1 Log in to the Cisco Unified CM User Options page, as shown in Figure 8-4.

Step 6 In the Speed Dial Settings Number field, enter the Cisco TelePresence phone numbers (for example, 84243737). See Figure 8-8.
Step 7 In the Speed Dial Settings Label and ASCII Label fields, enter a name or friendly name. These can be a combination of letters or numbers. Hyphens and spaces are ok, but do not use any special characters (for example, % @ ! $). See Figure 8-8.
Step 8 Click Save when you are done. Once you save, the phone will reboot for the changes to take effect. This will take a few minutes.
Note Do not click Reset. Doing so will cause the phone to reset and the phone could take 10 to 30 minutes to come back up.
Your phone screens will appear like this while the phone is rebooting:
