changes to "********", and you hear a special tone. Enter the FAC for the call using the keypad. For security
reasons, the phone displays a "*" instead of the number entered.

Secure and Nonsecure Indication Tones
When a phone is configured as secure (encrypted and trusted), it can be given a "protected" status. After a
phone is protected, it can be configured to play an indication tone at the beginning of a call.
You will hear these secure or nonsecure indication tones only on protected phones. If the overall call status
changes during the call, the protected phone plays the appropriate tone.
When the Play Secure Indication Tone option is enabled (True), the following circumstances determine the
type of tone the protected phone plays:
• If end-to-end secure media is established and the call status is secure, the phone plays the secure indication
• If end-to-end nonsecure media is established and the call status is not secure, the phone plays the nonsecure
• When the Play Secure Indication Tone option is disabled, no tone plays.
For more information, contact your system administrator.
Shared Lines
Shared lines allow you to use one phone number for multiple phones and either you or your coworker can
answer the call. When the line flashes red, your coworker can pick up the call.

• When a call comes in on the shared line:
• When your coworker has a call on the shared line:
• If you put the call on hold:

• Your coworker's phone rings and the line button flashes amber.
• The shared line button on your phone appears solid red to indicate that the line is in-use remotely.
• The coworker's call displays on your screen (unless your coworker has Privacy enabled).
