Interoperability - SPA 941 IP Phone Configuration guide to work with SPA 9000

Linksys SPA 941 IP Phone is designed to inter-operate with SPA 9000. When a SPA 941 connects into the same Local Area Network that a SPA 9000 resides, it will sync-up with it. You do not need to configure either device for them to identify each other. SPA 941 ships with 2 extensions and can be upgraded to 4.

Step 1 After power-up, obtain the IP address of the SPA 941 by pressing the MENU button on the phone and the number 9 on the keypad.

Step 2 Enter the IP address of the SPA 941 in your browser, click on the Admin and then, the Advanced link.

Step 3 If this is the 1st SPA 941 connected to the LAN that the SPA 9000 is connected, User ID of 100 is automatically assigned by the SPA 9000 to this phone's EXT 1. You can see this in the USER ID field of EXT 1. No password is needed or assigned. If you connect a 2nd SPA 941 to the network, EXT 1 of the 2nd SPA 941 will show 101 and so on.

STEP 4: To allow voicemail access
Click on the Phone tab. Enter 98500 in the Voicemail Field. This will program the Voicemail button on the phone.

STEP 5: Line key setting for each of the line button on the IP Phone
Line Key 1 to 4. Select the extension number and enter a number or a short name. In this example, we use 100. This will show on the phone's LCD screen next to the respective button.

STEP 6: To set your voicemail credentials, click on the USER tab
This feature allows you to greet caller with your own greetings when you are unable to answer a call in your extension. You will need to designate your TalkLah Virtual Number (VN) for each extension for voicemail. This VN “CANNOT” be the same as the TalkLah VNs used in LINES 1 to 4, in the SPA 9000.

Enter your TalkLah VN in the following format 9,vm + VN (9,vm1252566) Note: for 1252566 – use your own VN instead.

STEP 7
To make outside calls, dial 9 and then the telephone number. To dial another person's phone in the office, dial that person's phone extension number such as 100.
