User Guide for the Polycom VVX 1500 Business Media Phone	Calling and Answering

If your phone is set up to handle both protocols, you may be able to choose a protocol before you place a call using one of the following methods:

•Soft key method

Soft keys display to allow you to choose the protocol. Tap the Use SIP, Use H.323, or Use Auto soft key one or more times to toggle between Use SIP (to place a SIP call), Use H.323 (to place an H.323 call), or

Use Auto (to allow your phone to automatically select the protocol to use). The protocol you select displays in the title bar. Your phone will use the selected protocol for all subsequent calls, unless you select a different protocol.

•Dialog box method

A dialog box displays to allow you to choose the protocol. Tap Use SIP (to place a SIP call) or Use H.323 (to place an H.323 call).

For dual-protocol phones, the protocol displays next to all call IDs, including the call IDs for conference call participants and calls on hold. The following figure shows a SIP call placed to Jack Jones.

When you place calls from call lists or directories, your phone will automatically choose the protocol to use based on the information in the call list or directory. When you set up a contact in your Local Contact Directory, you can specify the protocol the contact uses to handle calls. This allows your phone to automatically use the correct protocol when you dial the contact.
