The Log Out screen is displayed with a confirmation message.

You can change your login password from any phone on your network.
Procedure

2. Navigate to Settings > Features > User Login > Change User Login Password.
For VVX 1500 phones, select Menu > Features > User Login > Login Password.
3. On the Change User Login Password screen, enter your old and new password information and

Log In to a Visitor Desk Phone
When you are registered with the Alcatel-Lucent Converged Telephony Server (CTS), you can log in to
VVX business media phones as a visitor desk phone, which is a shared public phone, to make calls to
contacts or access and change your personal settings.
When you log in to a visitor desk phone, you have full access to your personal phone settings and your
directory. Your system administrator provides you with login credentials that you can use to log in to a
visitor desk phone. By default, Polycom phones do not require you to log in before you can use them.
However, if you do not log in, you see only the phone's default profile.
This feature is not available for VVX 1500 phones. Check with your system administrator to find out if this
feature is available on your phone.
Procedure
1. Do one of the following:
• If you see the Visitor Login screen, proceed to step 2.
• If you do not see the Visitor Login screen, press the Visitor Login soft key or navigate to
Settings > Features > Visitor Desk Phone > Visitor Login.
2. From the Visitor Login screen, enter your user ID and password, and select Log in.
When your login credentials are accepted, the phone updates to display your personal phone
profile. When your credentials are not accepted, the message “User login failed” is displayed, and
the Login screen is displayed again. Check with your system administrator to confirm that your
login credentials are correct.
