How do I log into or out of a Hot Desk phone?

Follow these instructions to log into the telephone system from any phone designated as a Hot Desk phone.  

Requirements:

• Phone must first be set-up as a Hot Desk phone by IT, Media & Classroom Services staff and user must have a Hot Desk number and PIN assigned to them.

Instructions:

Hot Desking allows you to log into the telephone system from any phone designated as a Hot Desk phone. When you log in at the phone using your assigned Hot Desk User Extension Number, the phone assumes all your speed dials, features keys, call forwarding setup, and line appearances. Any changes you make to the phone while you are logged in (e.g. adding a speed dial) are saved to your personal profile.  

Logging in activates your profile on any phone that supports Hot Desking. When you log in as a hot desk user, Call History data is updated for you. You do not see any call logs for the phones registered DN (number that appears when all users are logged out); you only see your history data.

When you log out, the registered DNs history data is displayed. To access your voice mail when you are logged in as a Hot desk user, you must log in to your voice mail.
