General Troubleshooting

This section provides information to help you troubleshoot general problems with your phone. For more information, see your system administrator.

Symptom
Explanation

You cannot complete a call

One or more of the following factors might apply:

You must log into the Extension Mobility service.

You must enter a client matter code or forced authorization code after dialing a number.

Your phone has time-of-day restrictions that prevent you from using some features during certain hours of the day.

The Settings menu is unresponsive

Your system administrator might have disabled Settings on your phone.

The softkey that you want to use does not appear

One or more of the following factors might apply:

You must press or to reveal to additional softkeys.

You must change the line state (for example, place a call or have a connected call).

Your phone is not configured to support the feature associated with that softkey.

Join fails

Join requires multiple selected calls. Be sure that you have selected at least one call in addition to the active call, which is selected automatically. Join also requires the selected calls to be on the same line. If necessary, transfer calls to one line before joining them.

Barge fails and results in a fast busy tone

You cannot barge an encrypted call if the phone you are using is not configured for encryption. When your barge attempt fails for this reason, your phone plays a fast busy tone.

You are disconnected from a call that you joined using Barge

You will be disconnected from a call that you have joined using Barge if the call is put on hold, transferred, or turned into a conference call.

Cisco CallBack fails

The other party might have call forwarding enabled.
