Softkeys for Accessing XML Services

The 57i CT IP phone has a feature you can enable called "XML" (Extensible Markup Language). XML is a markup language much like HTML. Your system administrator can create customized XML menu services and load them to your IP phone. These services include things like weather and traffic reports, contact information, company info, stock quotes, or custom call scripts.

Note: You can configure XML using the Aastra Web UI only.

On the 57i CT IP phone, you can access the XML applications from the IP Phone UI in two ways:

•Via the "Services" menu

•Via an XML softkey

Note: The XML services must be set up by your system administrator before you can use the key. Contact your system administrator for more information.

By default, the Services key is the first key on the "Top" softkeys.

Top and bottom keys are softkeys

Using the Aastra Web UI, you can setup the Services menu on the IP phone to display XML applications. Under Operations->Softkeys and XML, you can click on the "Top Keys" tab and enter the XML URI and Services Label in the "XML Application URI" and XML Application Title" fields, respectively.

Note: Contact your system administrator for the applicable URI to enter in this field.

After the Services menu is configured, you can use the IP Phone UI and press the Services key to access the XML applications.

Using the Aastra Web UI, you can also configure a softkey to access XML applications. Under Operations->Softkeys and XML, you can click on the

"Bottom Keys" or "Top Keys" tabs and assign a key type as "XML". You must also set the following for XML softkeys:

•XML Application URI

•XML Application Title
