You can type in a help text here to designate the phone according to your criteria. This text is only displayed here.

Cordless phone type

Displays the cordless phone type if it is registered (parameter is displayed for Mitel SIP-DECT terminal type only).

Assigned user/pool

Here the phone is assigned to a user or a Free Seating Pool or the assignment is deleted . If you assign the phone to a free seating pool, it is automatically moved to the Free seating terminal view. The phone can only be assigned to one user or one Free seating pool. A new assignment overwrites the old one.

Registration user name, Registration password

Used for registering the phone with the communication server.

Display language

Phone language user interface.

Idle text

Select a predefined value or enter the text to be displayed on the phone display in the idle state. Default: Assigned user name, provided a name is defined during the assignment. Otherwise, the call number is entered.

Send redirecting information

Redirecting information allows the called party to see whether the call was redirected and, if so, by whom. Two different methods are defined for this purpose for SIP. The parameter can be configured for each SIP provider as well as for each SIP phone.

No: No redirection/redirecting information is displayed.

Yes, using 'Diversion header (recursing)': Redirection/redirecting information is displayed in the case of incoming calls only. The call is forwarded in the communication server.

Yes, using 'Diversion header (non recursing)': The call forwarding for outgoing calls is indirect, with the communication server sending back ‘Response 302’ (Moved Temporarily) with the necessary redirection information to the SIP phone. The SIP phone itself then makes the call to the forwarding destination and shows the redirection information on its own display.

Note:

Call forwarding with Response 302 is not possible in every case.

Here the phone is assigned to a user or the assignment is deleted . The phone can be assigned to one user only. A new assignment overwrites the old one.

Display language

Phone language user interface.

MWI mode

The setting needed to display the notification depends on the type of communication server and the connected, analogue phone. The MiVoice Office 400 communication servers support frequency shift keying (FSK) and Low voltage (Low voltage is mainly used for phones in USA/Canada). Mitel 470 and Mitel SMBC also supports Polarity reversal. Additionally Mitel SMBC supports High Voltage. Some analogue phones also have an MWI switch (e.g. Mitel 6730 Analogue).

Tip:

For the setting Polarity reversal, set the switch of the phone (e.g. 6730 Analogue) to the symbol "-".

  • If the MWI LED is blinking (message available) and off (no message available) the switch is set correctly.
  • If the MWI LED is on (message available) and blinking (no message available) the switch is set wrongly.

Phone lock: Set current state

Assigned user/pool

Here the phone is assigned to a user or the assignment is deleted . The phone can be assigned to one user only. A new assignment overwrites the old one.

Route

This route is used if the integrated mobile phone’s internal call number is dialled and an external call is then made to the stored mobile call number.

Mobile/external call number

Enter the phone's external call number here.

Use CLIP for authentication

checkbox-checked00815.png The call number and password entered to authenticate the integrated mobile phone is not necessary.

CLIP selection

Normal: If the direct dialling number of the calling user is used as the CLIP, regardless of his settings. If there is no corresponding direct dialling number, the internal call number is used in its place.

CLIP from user: The CLIP number will soon be created, like for a call to the public network. In this case the calling user’s CLIP settings are decisive.

Enhanced functionality

The extended function reinforces the integration of the mobile phone and allows additional suffix dialling functions, e.g. enquiry call or conference set-up.

Note:

For the enhanced functionality GSM voice channels must be configured in the System / DSP.

MWI route

Route for MWI signalling (new voice mail voice message) to the integrated mobile phone.

MWI CLIP

The CLIP for MWI signalling (new voice mail voice message) to the integrated mobile phone is entered here. (input format the same as an external call number e.g. 00326553827). The CLIP is transmitted in accordance with the Transit CLIP format parameter for the trunk group settings.

Enquiry call using DTMF-A

Depending on its configuration, an enquiry call on a mobile or external phone is triggered with the DTMF character A or with the DTMF characters ***. The communication server interprets both of them as an enquiry call (default setting). However, the user's voice may be interpreted as DTMF signal A and involuntarily trigger an enquiry call. To avoid this, configure the mobile or external phone in such a way that it sends the DTMF signal *** for the enquiry call then deactivate the parameter checkbox-unchecked00817.png Enquiry call using DTMF-A.
