USING UC
Adding a Linked Contact
A linked contact is connected to a UC account or device in the system. Like simple
contacts, linked contacts also store contact information. Unlike simple contacts,
linked contacts also display real-time status information for the account or device to
which they are linked.
To add a linked contact, either use the type-ahead search (see page 97) or the call log
main screen (see page 107).
To add a linked contact:
1. Press Unified Communicator on the interface, then press Search.
2. Enter the first few characters of the contact using the Input Panel. (You can also
enter the entire contact name or device extension.)
3. If there are too many results, enter additional characters to refine the search. The
search results include all matching contacts in your address book, all matching
users, and all matching devices in the system. The search function automatically
tries to eliminate duplicate results from the list. If the search matches an account,
as well as one or more devices owned by the account, then the search results will
only display the matching account.
NOTE: To select a range of items, activate the Input Panel (see page 13). Select
the first item in your list, press the SHIFT key on the Input Panel, then select the
last item in the list. You can also select one item, then press the CTRL key and
select additional items.
4.
Press Add to Address Book. The selected items are added as linked accounts
and linked devices respectively.
NOTE: Selecting the Add to Speed Dial button adds the result to the speed-dial
list and to the address book.
5.
Repeat steps 1-4 to add additional linked contacts.
To delete a contact from your address book:
1. Press Address Book on the interface. The address book with your contact infor-
mation appears.
2. Select a contact and press Delete.
NOTE: Removing a contact from the address book also removes it from the
speed-dial list.
