Change VVX 400/410 Softkey Function

[Anonymous]

We currently have some Polycom VVX 400 phones running UCS 5.4.0 and we wanted to change the function of the DND softkey.  I found this article for some SoundPoint IP 560's that we have and it functions perfectly (here).  I was wanting to do the same on our VVX series but it looks like they only have the softkey and menu option.  Is there a way to change the default function to work the same way as the IP560 phones do where it sends a '*76' call to update Asterisk and also updates the phone status?  Thanks for any help on this.

Hello jarsever,

The community's VoIP FAQ contains this post here:

Resolution: Please check => here <=

In addition you may want to disable the standard DND Softkey:

<test softkey.feature.doNotDisturb="0" />

and in addition the Menu Icon

<test homeScreen.doNotDisturb.enable="1" />

If you actually wanted to do it properly this guide => here <= provides information to utilize the SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY method.
