    A speed dial entry can be a phone number or URL. The user can also enter a name that matches one of the directory entries. As the value is entered, the 900 Series phone attempts to match the entry to the directory entries and brings up a list of potential matches on the screen. The user can scroll down to select one of the suggested entries.
  • Page 69: Attended Call Transfer

    The 900 Series phone implements this feature by repeatedly dialing the busy number periodically until the called party rings or answers, or until the service order is canceled by the user or expires.

    (the ring to be used is the default ring for the corresponding extension for that Line key). If the call back party answers the call before the local user does, the 900 Series phone sends a holding tone to the call back party. If the local user picks up the call back Line key first, the user hears a ring back tone like a regular outbound call.

  • Page 75: Configuring A Dial Plan

    For input, you can use any .wav file less than eight seconds. Configuring a Dial Plan The 900 Series phone allows each line to be configured with a distinct dial plan. The dial plan specifies how to interpret digit sequences dialed by the user, and how to convert those sequences into an outbound dial string.
  • Page 76: Dial Plan Digit Sequences

    Any one of a set of terminating events triggers the 900 Series phone to either accept the user-dialed sequence and transmit it to initiate a call, or else to reject it as invalid. The terminating events are as follows: •...
  • Page 77: Digit Sequence Syntax

    Thus, “L:8,( . . . )” sets the interdigit long timeout to 8 seconds for the line associated with this dial plan. And, “L:8,S:4,( . . . )” overrides both the long and the short time-out values. Linksys 900 Series IP Phone Administrator Guide Document Version 3.1...
