Editing Parameter Values

When you edit the value of a configuration parameter, follow these guidelines:

•Use the keys on the dial pad to enter characters (such as numbers, letters, and periods).

•If a parameter value can accept either numbers or letters, the Number / Alpha toggle softkey will be available. Press the Number softkey to enter numbers using the dial pad. Press the Alpha softkey to enter letters using the dial pad.

•To enter letters using the dial pad, use a corresponding number key. Press the key one or more times to display a particular letter. For example, press the 2 key once for “a,” twice quickly for “b,” and three times quickly for “c.” After you pause, the cursor automatically advances so you can enter the next letter.

•To enter a period (for example, in an IP address), press the * key on the dial pad.

•Press the << softkey if you make a mistake. This softkey deletes the character to the left of the cursor.

•Press the Cancel softkey before pressing the Validate softkey or the Save softkey to discard any changes you have made.

Note After you change and save some parameter values, the phone may reset automatically.
