Phone View Features
Phone View features—such as Message Monitor—use the LCD screens of Cisco IP phones to display information and messages.
Phone View features work only with Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CM) (formerly known as Cisco Unified CallManager) phone systems, and only with supported Cisco IP phones. For details on requirements, see the "Requirements for Cisco Unity Phone View" section in the applicable System Requirements for Cisco Unity, available at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps2237/prod_installation_guides_list.html.
To set up Phone View features, you first create an application CTI user in Cisco Unified CM and associate the applicable subscriber devices with this user. Then, you enable Phone View features for the phone system. Note that subscribers can also change their personal settings to enable Message Monitor for a specified phone, or to disable it.
Do the following procedures in order, as applicable.
