Using an alternative connection/connection list on the display key
Prerequisite: You have assigned an "alternative connection" or the list with all con-
figured connections to a display key on the handset (
¢ page 120).
§Sel. Line§ Press the display key.
q Select a connection.
c/§Dial§ Press the talk key or display key.
~ Enter a number. The number is dialled approximately 3.5 seconds after
the last digit is entered.
Any dialling plan (
¢ page 152) that has been defined for the dialled phone
number is ignored. The selected send connection is always used.
Calling an IP address (provider-dependent)
You can also dial an IP address instead of a phone number using VoIP.
¤ Press the star key * to separate the sections of the IP address
(e.g., 149*246*122*28).
¤ If necessary, press the hash #key to attach the SIP port number of the person
you are calling to the IP address (e.g., 149*246*122*28#5060).
If your VoIP provider does not support the dialling of IP addresses, each part of the
address will be interpreted as a normal phone number.
Dialling emergency numbers
Dialling plans for emergency numbers (e.g., the local police emergency number)
are preset on the phone for certain countries. Emergency calls are then always
made via the fixed line.
However, you can change the connection through which each emergency number
should be called (e.g., if the phone is not connected to the fixed line). You must
make sure, however, that the VoIP provider for the selected connection supports
emergency numbers. If the VoIP connection is deleted from the configuration, the
emergency call can no longer be made.
If no dialling plans for emergency numbers are preset on your telephone, you
should set dialling plans yourself. Assign them to a connection that you know sup-
ports emergency numbers. Calls to emergency numbers are always supported by
fixed lines.
Please note: If no dialling plans are defined for emergency numbers and you have
programmed an automatic local area code, the code will also be prefixed to emer-
gency numbers as soon as they are dialled via a VoIP connection.
