Call appearance buttons are used to display calls to and from your phone. By having several call appearance buttons, you are able to answer and make several calls, switch between calls, and perform other actions.
When all your call appearance buttons are in use, any further calls to your number follow your 'forward on busy' setting, if set. Otherwise, calls go to voicemail (if available).
By default a=, b= and so on is displayed. This can be replaced by another label if required.
When the user is not connected to a call, the button indicated as selected is the button that will be used if the user goes off hook without pressing an appearance button. When a user is connected to a call, that call is the selected button.
