Changing Presence Status

You can assign a presence status to control whether you want people to contact you or not. By default, your status is based on your Microsoft Teams server.

After n minutes (configured in the Teams server by your administrator), presence status automatically changes to ‘Inactive’.
n minutes after this (also configured in the Teams server by your administrator), presence status automatically changes to ‘Away’; all calls are then automatically forwarded to the Response Group Service (RGS) if it is configured.
To change presence status:
1. In the home screen, select .

2. Select the current status displayed and from the drop-down list of statuses then displayed, select the status to change to. Use this table as reference.
