Enabling/Disabling a Beep for Status Message Displays

You can enable or disable a BEEP option using the Status Message object (AastraIPPhoneStatus), the configuration files, or the Aastra Web UI.

Note: For enabling/disabling a status message beep using the Status Message object, see Appendix G, “Creating an XML Application.”

When the phone receives a status message, the BEEP notifies the user that the message is displaying.

You can use the following to enable/disable a status message beep:

•AastraIPPhoneStatus object (via XML object; see Appendix G)

•xml beep notification (via configuration files)

•XML Beep Support (via the Aastra Web UI)

Enabling the beep is an indication to the phone to sound a beep when it receives an AastraIPPhoneStatus object. If you disable the beep, or no AastraIPPhoneStatus object appears in the status message, then the default behavior is no beep is heard when the object arrives to the phone.

The value set in the configuration files and Aastra Web UI override the attribute you specify for the AastraIPPhoneStatus object.

For example, if the AastraIPPhoneStatus object has the attribute of Beep=”yes”, and you uncheck (disable) the “XML Beep Support” in the Aastra Web UI, the phone does not beep when it receives an AastraIPPhoneStatus object.

Setting the BEEP option in the configuration files and the Aastra Web UI applies to the phone immediately.
