Supporting Multiple Lines
Your SoundPoint IP 650 phone can support up to 34 lines with or without a
SoundPoint IP Backlit Expansion Module. For more information, refer to
Using the SoundPoint IP Backlit Expansion Module on page 5-1.
Typically, the top-most Line Key is reserved for the principal directory
number (DN) of the phone.

resemble one of the following figures:
•
One line, 3163
•
Two lines, 3161 and 3163
Customizing Your Phone

Supporting Multiple Line Keys Per Line
Each line on the phone can be configured to have more than one Line Key
associated with it. This enhances call visualization and simplifies call
handling. If this is the case, the display could resemble the following figure:
Incoming calls to this line will be distributed evenly among the available Line
Keys. Similarly, outgoing calls will be distributed.
Your phone can be configured to have a combination of lines with a single Line
Key and lines with multiple Line Keys.
Supporting Shared Lines
Your SoundPoint IP 650 supports shared lines.
A shared line is indicated by a different line icon. In the following figure, the
lines 3161 and 3163 are private and the line 3166 is shared.
If two phones share a line, an incoming call to that number will cause both
phones to ring. The call can be answered on either phone but not both.
Calls on shared lines can be transferred, put on hold, or added to a conference.
Note
Shared lines are an optional feature and may not be supported on your particular
system. For more information, contact your system administrator.

Recording a Call
If the Call Recording and Playback feature is available and you plug a
removable USB flash drive into the USB port on your SoundPoint IP 650, you
can record active calls on your phone. Recordings are stored as .wav files on
the USB flash drive. You can record up to 4 hours in one file. The approximate
time remaining for recording (the free space on the USB flash drive) is shown
on the graphic display.
The Record soft key controls recording and is available:
•
When there are one or more calls connected to your phone (you may need
to press the More soft key to see it)
•
During an active call
•
When calls are on hold
•
During a consultative transfer or conference call
The Record soft key is not available:
Note
Call Recording is an optional feature and may not be supported on your particular
system. For more information, contact your system administrator.

•
When there are no connected calls on your phone
•
When you place a new call (to transfer or to conference)
•
When the phone prompts you to answer an incoming call
If you put an active call on hold, recording pauses. Recording continues if the
called party puts you on hold. Recording stops if all active calls end, no matter
who ends the calls.
If you press
while recording, only the called parties are recorded.
Tones and indications (for example, dialing of digits or ringing from another
party’s phone) that occur before a call connects are not recorded. Local tones
and indications (for example, DTMF tones when dialing) are not recorded.
However, tones from another party’s phone may be recorded.
You can start, pause, resume, and stop recording through the use of soft keys.
All active calls that occur on your phone between the time you press the Start
soft key and the Stop soft key are recorded, alternating in the same .wav file.
For example, you place a call to party A and, after they answer, you start
recording on October 4, 2007 at 11:22am. While speaking with party A, you get
an incoming call. You put party A on hold and speak with party B. When you
finish speaking with party B, you return to speaking with party A. While
speaking with party A again, you get another incoming call. You put party A
on hold and speak with party C. When you finish speaking with party C, you
return to speaking with party A. You end your call with party A and recording
stops. Your conversations with parties A, B, and C are all recorded in the same
.wav file as follows:
If there is insufficient free space on the USB flash drive when you press the
Start soft key, recording does not start and the message “USB device is full.
Recording cancelled.” appears.
If the USB flash drive becomes full during recording, recording stops and the
message “USB device is full. Recording stopped.” appears.

this action.
Note
You may be required by federal, state, and/or local laws to notify some or all called
parties when you are recording (either one-party or all-party consent). Specific
information about US state requirements can be found at http://www.rcfp.org/taping/
. Telephone call recording regulations in other countries vary widely. Polycom
recommends checking with the local government's telecommunications authority
and government legal agencies.
