Phone Usage

This chapter describes how to use a phone connected to your ZyXEL Device for basic tasks.

13.1 Dialing a Telephone Number

The PHONE LED turns green when your SIP account is registered. Dial a SIP number like “12345” on your phone’s keypad.

Use speed dial entries (see Section 11.16 on page 198) for peer-to-peer calls or SIP numbers that use letters. Dial the speed dial entry on your telephone’s keypad.

Use your VoIP service provider’s dialing plan to call regular telephone numbers.

13.2 Using Speed Dial to Dial a Telephone Number

After configuring the speed dial entry and adding it to the phonebook, press the speed dial entry’s key combination on your phone’s keypad.

13.3 Internal Calls

When you have more than one phone connected to the ZyXEL Device’s phone ports, you can make internal calls from a phone connected to one port to a phone connected to another.

"When you have more than one phone connected to a single analog PHONE port, they behave exactly the same as one another. The extension number you give to the port applies to all the phones connected to it. However, when you have multiple ISDN phones connected to the ISDN port, each can have it own extension number. See Section 11.12 on page 191 for more information.

The ZyXEL Device supports the following functions for internal calls:

Phone Book

Call Transfer

Call Forwarding
