Defining Flash key functions for VoIP (hook flash)
Your VoIP provider may support special performance features. To make use of
these features, your phone needs to send a specific signal (data packet) to the
SIP server. You can assign this "signal" to your phone's Flash key.
If you press the Flash key during a VoIP call the signal will be sent to the server.
Prerequisite:
u DTMF reminders via SIP info messages is activated, i.e. the option SIP Info on
this Web page is activated (£
Page 126).
u The S key is not used for call forwarding, i.e.
Use the R key to initiate call
transfer with the SIP Refer method. = No is set for call forwarding (£ Page 127).
If one of these prerequisites is not fulfilled, the field in the Hook Flash (R-key)
area is hidden.
¤ Open the following Web page: Settings ¢ Telephony ¢ Advanced Settings.
Area
Hook Flash (R-key)
¤ In the Application Type fields, (maximum 31 characters) and Application Signal
fields (maximum 15 characters) enter the data that you have received from
your VoIP provider.
¤ Select
Set to save your settings.
The setting for the Flash key applies to all registered handsets.
Configuring call forwarding via VoIP
If you are toggling calls via VoIP connections, you can connect the two external
callers (provider-dependent). You can configure settings for this type of call for-
warding.
¤ Open the following Web page:
Settings ¢ Telephony ¢ Advanced Settings.
Area
Call Transfer
¤ Make your settings for call forwarding via VoIP in the following fields:
Use the R key to initiate call transfer with the SIP Refer method.
If you activate the Yes option, the two external parties you are toggling
between will be connected when you press the End Call key S. Your connec-
tions with the callers will be terminated.
Transfer Call by On-Hook
If you select Yes, the external parties you are toggling between will be con-
nected when you press the End Call key a. Your connections with the callers
will be terminated.
