4 How to Use the
7914 Expansion Module
The 7914 Expansion Module functions as a line appearance or
speed dial module, allowing you to keep track of calls in
progress, calls on hold, and calls requiring transfer. All call
functions, such as answering a call, placing a call on hold,
transferring a call, and so on, are performed from the
Cisco IP Phone 7960. See the Cisco IP Phone 7960 and 7940
Series User Guide for instructions about using the IP Phone. To
configure speed dial numbers, see the “Configuring Speed Dial
Numbers” section on page 16.
Here is a typical scenario when using the Cisco IP Phone 7960
and 7914 Expansion Module combination.
You receive a call for your Director at extension 12345. You
look at your 7914 Expansion Module and see that your
Director has a call in progress with another party and also has
another call on hold. Looking down the
7914 Expansion Module LCD screen, you note that another
1LCD screen—Displays either the phone number, speed
dial number (or name or other text label) assigned to each
button. Icons indicating line status appear and function
the same as those on the Cisco IP Phone 7960.
2Lighted Buttons—14 buttons. Each button corresponds to
one line (just like on the Cisco IP Phone 7960). The lights
beneath each button indicate the state of the
corresponding line as follows:
Line available: Light off
Line in use by you: Light steady Green
Line in use by someone else: Light steady Red
Line ringing: Light flashing Amber
Call on hold: Light flashing Green
Call transfer: Light steady Green

the Speed Dial Settings for Line Extension Module 2.
You can set up speed dial numbers 19 - 32. Refer back
to Steps 9 and 10.
Step 9 After you configure all your speed dial numbers, click
Update.
The LCD screen on the Cisco IP Phone 7960 flashes for
an instant and redisplays. The lighted buttons on the
Expansion Module(s) go dark and then shine steady
red. Next, the 1st lighted button on the first Expansion
Module flashes green and the LCD screen redisplays
with the speed dial numbers you configured. If you
have a second Expansion Module, the 1st lighted
button flashes green and the LCD screen redisplays
with the speed dial numbers you configured for that
module.
Step 10 On the Speed Dial Configuration page, click Log off.
