This parameter controls whether the BudgeTone phone needs to send REGISTER messages to the proxy server. The default setting is “Yes”.

Default is No. If set to yes, the SIP user will be unregistered on reboot.

This parameter allows the user to specify the time frequency (in minutes) the BudgeTone phone will refresh its registration with the specified registrar. The default interval is 60 minutes (or 1 hour). The maximum interval is 65535 minutes (about 45 days).

Default is No. Use only if proxy supports 484 response

Sets the prefix added to each dialed number

Default is 4 seconds.

This parameter allows the user to configure the “#” key to be used as the “Send”(or “Dial”) key. Once set to “Yes”, pressing this key will immediately trigger the sending of dialed string collected so far. In this case, this key is essentially equivalent to the “(Re)Dial” key. If set to “No”, this # key will then be included as part of the dial string to be sent out.

This parameter defines the local SIP port the BudgeTone phone will listen to and transmit on. The default value is 5060.

This parameter defines the local RTP-RTCP port pair the BudgeTone phone will listen to and transmit on. It is the base RTP port for channel 0. When configured, channel 0 will use this port_value for RTP and the port_value+1 for its RTCP; channel 1 will use port_value+2 for RTP and port_value+3 for its RTCP. The default value is 5004.

This parameter, when set to Yes, will force random generation of both the local SIP and RTP ports. This is usually necessary when multiple BudgeTone phones are behind the same NAT.
