pressing that softkey. Optionally, you can also configure a speeddial

 

key to dial prefix numbers. With this option, the prefix numbers

 

automatically dial when you press the softkey, and the phone waits

 

for you to enter the remaining numbers to dial out.

 

Note: When there is an active call, the speeddial keys send DTMF

 

digits through the active voice path. To dial out, you have to first put

 

the active call on hold and then press the speeddial key.

distribute calls from a queue to registered IP phone users (agents).

 

dcp - (for Sylantro Servers only) Indicates the programmable key is

 

configured for either directed call pickup or group call pickup (called

 

Directed Call Pickup” in the Aastra Web UI). The Directed Call

 

Pickup/Group Call Pickup feature allows you to intercept or pickup a

 

call on a monitored extension or a group of monitored extensions.

 

xml - Indicates the softkey is configured to accept an XML application

 

for accessing customized XML services. You can also specify an XML

 

softkey URL for this option.

 

flash - Indicates the softkey is set to generate a flash event when it is

 

pressed on the 57i and 57i CT, or a feature key is pressed on the 57i

 

CT handset. The IP phone generates flash events only when a call is

 

connected and there is an active RTP stream (for example, when the

 

call is not on hold).
