Using Star Code 
1.  Pick up the analog phone then dial “*47” 
2.  Enter the target IP address using same format as above. 
Note: NO dial tone will be played between step 1 and 2. 
Destination ports can be specified by using “*” (encoding for “:”) followed by the port number.  
Examples: 
a)  If the target IP address is 192.168.0.160, the dialing convention is 
*47 or Voice Prompt with option 47, then 192*168*0*160.  
followed by pressing the “#” key if it is configured as a send key or wait 4 seconds. In this case, 
the default destination port 5060 is used if no port is specified.  
b)  If the target IP address/port is 192.168.1.20:5062, then the dialing convention would be: 
*47 or Voice Prompt with option 47, then 192*168*0*160*5062 followed by pressing the “#” key 
if it is configured as a send key or wait for 4 seconds. 
NOTE:  When completing direct IP call, the “Use Random Port” should set to “NO”.  You can not make 
direct IP calls between FXS1 to FXS2 since they are using same IP. 
CALL HOLD 
This function is applicable on the FXS port for VoIP calls only. While in conversation, pressing the “flash” 
button on the connected phone (if the phone has that button) places the remote end on hold. Pressing the 
“flash”  button  again  releases  the  previously  held  party  and  the  conversation  can  resume.  If  no  “flash” 
button is available, then on-off hook quickly (hook flash) will do the same thing.  You may lose the call if 
‘hook flash’ is not quick enough.  
CALL WAITING 
This function is applicable on FXS port for VoIP calls only. If the call waiting feature is enabled, the user 
will hear a special stutter tone if there  is  another call  on the line.  Press the flash button to  place the 
current party on hold and switch to the other call.  Pressing the flash button toggles between two active 
calls. The HT503 also  provides CWCID (call waiting caller ID) information which includes caller ID 
information in addition to the special stutter tone.   The analog phone must support this feature for it to 
work on the HT503.  Both call waiting functions (call waiting and CWCID) are activated and deactivated 
from the configuration pages menu.
