3Enter any additional information needed for the call. The available settings depend on the type of call and your system’s configuration. Not all calls require these settings:

Call Quality – Specify the call rate or call type for this call. For most calls, choose Auto to let the system determine the best quality for the call. For audio-only calls, you might need to set this to Phone.

Second ISDN number – Use two numbers only when the person you are calling instructs you to do so.

Extension – If you need to dial an extension (E.164 address), enter the extension in the second entry field. If your system is not configured with a second entry field, you can enter the extension when the gateway prompts you. You can also specify characters in the dial string as instructed by the system administrator.

4Press Call on the keypad to place the call.

Call progress indicators appear on the HDX system monitor to show that the call is in progress. When the indicators turn green, the call is connected.

For more information about using the Place a Call screen, refer to Types of Video Calls You Can Make on page 7.
