help | 5 Telephoning with SwyxIt! - First Steps | Answering a call
5.3 Answering a call
If you receive a call, a call is forwarded to you or if a call is received for a group of which you are a member,
*a call symbol with a “New Call” information balloon will appear in the taskbar, which contains the number and the name of the caller,
*the number or the name of the caller will appear on the line,
*a ringing sound will be produced
*an animated graphic will appear on the line receiving the call.
If the number of the caller is known, SwyxWare will attempt to associate the number. This means that if a name is listed in the Global or Personal Phonebook, in the Contacts or if a Speed Dial has been assigned to this number, the name will appear. If not, only the number will be displayed (see Selecting a number from Outlook Contacts).
If “XXX” appears, the caller’s number has not been transmitted, e.g. when the caller has suppressed his number.
To accept a telephone call 
1 To pick up the call,
*simply lift the SwyxIt! Handset.
or
*double-click on the call symbol in the tray (taskbar)
or
*click either on the handset button or on the line button which is animated.
The speakers and the microphone are cleared or the SwyxIt! Handset or the SwyxIt! Headset is activated so that you can speak with the caller.
* 
If, when a call comes in, the screen saver is activated or if SwyxIt! is minimized in the taskbar, you can take the call by simply picking up the handset. When you do this, SwyxIt! will usually be put in the foreground, depending on the operating system. If this does not happen automatically, you can activate SwyxIt! with the mouse.
