Single/Dual Column Display

Last Updated : Feb 13, 2024 |

The phone can use full-width display (single-column mode) or half-width display (dual-column mode) for the programmable buttons. The display mode used does not affect the number of programmable buttons configurable.

Your system administrator can select which mode the phone uses by default. However, you can then select the mode you prefer.

For J159 and J189 phones, this setting only affects the primary screen.

Procedure

  1. Press the Features soft key if shown.
    • To do this during a call, press the PHONE key and then press Features.

  2. Use the cursor keys to select Phone User.
  3. Use the cursor keys to select Phone Screen Settings.
  4. Use the up and down cursor keys to highlight Display Mode.
  5. Press the Change soft key to change the setting or use the left or right cursor keys.
    • Dual Column – Each programmed button occupies one half of the screen line on which it is displayed, either the right-hand or left-hand side. The adjacent physical button on that side of the display is used to indicate the button's status and to control the button feature.

    • Single Column – Each programmed button feature occupies the full width of the screen. The physical buttons on both sides of the display are used to control the button feature. However, the button status is only shown by the left-hand button. In this mode, appearance button labels also show a call status icon (for example: idle, alerting, connected).

  6. Press Save.
