User tab on CCA tool is used to configure user parameters in UC500 series devices. In this option we can associate users with the phones discovered by CCA tool and add new phones as required. We also have access to the phone configuration screens by choosing more buttons. In the below screen we can change what the phone buttons do, configure user permissions, define paging groups, configure intercom, set timers and operations for busy and no-answer call rules.

The configure user parameter window appears on screen as illustrated in figure 1
