VCX Attendant 

Console

The VCX 3105 Attendant Console has 50 Access buttons and 4 

preprogrammed Feature buttons. In effect, the Attendant Console is an 

extension of the VCX Business Telephone or VCX Basic Telephone with 

which it is associated.

Figure 4

 illustrates the buttons and controls on the VCX 3105 Attendant 

Console.

Access Buttons

The 50 Access buttons on an VCX 3105 Attendant Console can each 

have two sets of assignments: 1 through 50, and 51 through 100. To 

toggle between the two sets of assignments, press the Shift button. 

Your administrator can assign features to each Access button. Possible 

features include:

■

Status of internal telephone extensions (busy, available)

In the current release, when you assign a phone extension to an 

Attendant Console button, the button assignment does not become 

effective until either the Attendant Console is rebooted or the phone 

registration interval elapses. The default registration interval is one hour 

(3600 seconds).

■

Status of external telephone lines

■

Speed dials for user extensions:

Feature Buttons

The four Feature buttons are programmed for four of the five most 

common features needed by a receptionist: Call Transfer, Call Hold, 

Conference, Call Park, or Attendant Serial Call. The Shift button does not 

affect the operation of the Feature buttons. Your administrator 

configures the feature assigned to a particular Feature button using the 

VCX User Interface, Central Management Console. The feature-to-button 

mappings described in the list following 

Figure 4

 are the defaults and 

may not correspond to your configuration.

Your administrator also maps telephone extensions to Access buttons 

using the VCX Administrator web interface.

3105 Attendant Console.
