Grandstream Networks BudgeTone-200 Handset, Speakerphone and Headset Mode, Making Phone Calls

MAKING PHONE CALLS

Handset, Speakerphone and Headset Mode

The regular Handset mode can be switched with either the Speaker mode (Hand free) or the Headset mode, however, whenever the Headset is plugged in, Speaker mode will be switched to the Headset mode automatically.

To Switch between Handset and Speaker/Headset, simply press the Hook Flash in the Handset cradle or the Speaker button.

Make Calls using Numbers

There are FIVE ways to make phone calls:

•Pick up handset or press SPEAKERPHONE button, and then enter the phone numbers

•Press the SEND button directly to redial the number last called.

•Once pressed, the last dialed number will be displayed on the LCD as the corresponding DTMF tones are played out and an outgoing call is sent.

•Browse the CALLED/CALLER history and press the SEND/REDIAL button.

•Pick up the handset or press the speakerphone button, then press the “CALLED/CALLERS” button to browse thru the last 10 numbers dialed out. Once the desired number is identified and displayed on the LCD screen, press the SEND button and a new call to that displayed number will be sent out immediately.

Examples:

•To dial another extension on the same proxy, such as 1008, simply pick up handset or press speakerphone, dial 1008 and then press the “SEND” button.

•To dial a PSTN number such as 6266667890, you might need to enter in some prefix number followed by the phone number. Please check with your VoIP service provider to get the information. If you phone is assigned with a PSTN-like number such as 6265556789, most likely you just follow the rule to dial 16266667890 as if you were calling from a regular analog phone, followed by pressing the “SEND” button.

Make Calls using IP Address

Direct IP calling allows two parties, that is, a BT200 and another VoIP Device, to talk to each other in an ad hoc fashion without a SIP proxy. This kind of VoIP calls can be made between two parties if:

•Both BT200 phone and other VoIP Device(i.e., another IP Phone or BT200 SIP phone or other VoIP unit) have public IP addresses, or

•Both BT200 phone and other VoIP Device are on the same LAN using private or public IP addresses, or

•Both BT200 phone and other VoIP Device can be connected through a router using public or private IP addresses (with necessary port forwarding or DMZ).

This model has the ability to dial an IP address under the same LAN segment by simply pressing the last octet in the IP address.

In the Advanced Settings page there is an option "Use Quick IP-call mode", by default it is set to No. When this option is set to YES, and #XXX is dialed, where X is 0-9 and XXX <=255, phone will make direct IP call to aaa.bbb.ccc.XXX where aaa.bbb.ccc comes from the local IP address REGARDLESS of subnet mask.
