You need to start by mentioning what you're using for call control.

CUCM? CME? version???

If asking for help you always need to provide that info.

Hi Scooter;

I'm not sure what type of add-on module you are using, but let's assume it's a 7914.

Once the 7914 module has been added to the phone physically then you have to add

it via CUCMadmin. On the 7975 phone config page under expansion module add the 7914.

Then have a look at the Phone Button Template for the 7914. If you find the default Button Template

you can Copy it/rename it (something like 7975 with 7914) and reconfigure it with the appropriate Line Buttons.

In many cases the default Phone Button Template is configured for all Speed Dial buttons so this

needs to be tweaked to allow you to configure the additional lines that you and your user require.

Once this has been done go back to the phone/device in question and apply this new

Phone Button Template> Update> and you will see all the Line keys available to add the required DN's

Here is an example

Expansion Module 1 Standard 14-Button Expansion Module

Expansion Module 2 Standard 14-Button Expansion Module
