Unified Communicator
Elements
Unified Communicator
(UC) is a productivity tool designed to help you manage your
communication effectively. UC allows you to interact with the software through per-
sonal computers, desktop endpoints, cell phones, handheld organizers, and speech.
With multiple interfaces, you can access features and functionality, no matter where
you are.
The UC elements on the telephone interface consist of the system tray icon in the sys-
tem tray and the navigation buttons on the telephone interface. Information about
these elements appears below. For instructions on how to use UC features and options
on your endpoint, see page 93.
System Tray Icon
When the client application is running, the system tray icon appears in the Windows
®
system tray. The system tray is located in the lower-right portion of the taskbar near
the clock. If you press the icon, the system tray menu is displayed. For menu options
and instructions, see page 35.
The system tray icon represents the current UC status as one of the following:
You are not currently logged on to UC.
You are currently logged on to UC and your status is available.
You are currently logged on to UC and your status is unavailable.
Navigation Buttons
The navigation buttons on the interface provide access to UC views. Pressing a navi-
gation button highlights the button and displays the associated view. Pressing the but-
ton again closes the view. At any time, you can press the
Display or Dialpad
navigation buttons to return to the display or dialpad.
