8845 Sip Phone Button Features

[jefferymitchell]

Is there a phone button template that will utilize the 3 unused buttons on a 8845 or 8865 model phone? The Data sheet states that only 5 of the 10 buttons on the phone are programmable. I would like to add additional speed dials if possible.

As you read it from the data sheet we can only configure up to 5 programmable lines on Cisco 8800 series phones, any additional line configuration would move to KEM if configured.

refer below data sheet demo video which confirms the same.

Just updating this thread since this is no longer the case with the availability of Enhanced Line Mode:
