• Force G.726r24 (*0272624—Forces G.726r24 for next outbound call.
• Force G.726r32 (*0272632)—Forces G.726r32 for next outbound call.
• Force G.726r40 (*0272640)—Forces G.726r40 for next outbound call.
• Force G.729a (*02729)—Forces G.729a for next outbound call.
When off-hook dialing, the star code is processed by the phone as soon as it is entered and processed by
the phone. When on-hook dialing, you can pre-dial multiple star codes before the target number. The star
codes are handled in the order they are entered, before the target number is dialed. The *code soft key
indicates the *codes available. Star codes can also be included in a directory entry or redial list.
In addition there are two special codes:
• Referral Services Codes: A list of star codes separated by a vertical bar (|), such as *199|*09, where
entering each member triggers a blind transfer operation. The transfer target number in this case is
prepended by the corresponding star code, whereas the blind transfer itself contains the target
number only without the star code. Like a normal blind transfer, a referral service code can only be
entered when the last call is placed on hold.
• Feature Dial Services Codes: A list of star codes separated by a vertical bar (|), where entering each
member causes the next outbound call target number to be prepended by the corresponding star
code. May be useful for some Service Providers who have their own star codes. These Service
Provider star codes can be listed under the Feature Dial Services Codes.
Disabling Services
Services handled locally by the phone can be disabled by the administrator in one or two ways:
• Directly disabling the service in the configurable profile,
• Emptying out the *code associated with the service.
Services that can be disabled (or enabled) by the first method include the following:
• Block Caller ID (including blocking and unblocking, per call and always)
• Block Anonymous Calls
• Do Not Disturb
• Secure Call (including enabling and disabling, per call and always)
• Call Forward All
• Call Forward Busy
• Call Forward No Answer
• Call Back
• Conference Call (no star code)
• Attended Call Transfer (no star code)
• Blind Call Transfer
Services that can be disabled (or enabled) by the second method include any service that has a star code
assignment in the Linksys IP phone configuration profile. Note that if a service is enabled, but the
corresponding *code is emptied, the service can still be enabled/disabled by the end- user from the phone
LCD or the administration web server.
If a service is disabled, any soft key associated with that service is hidden on the LCD. These are: dnd),
-dnd), cfwd) and -cfwd). Any menu item associated with a disabled service is preceded with an
exclamation mart (!) and no soft keys is visible to select that entry.
