ET605 User Manual
On the web interface
Open the web interface and click on an identity in the menu on the left. The configuration window for that
identity will open; it contains four tabs, with the left one, Login, visible in the front. To view Features, SIP, NAT,
and RTP pages, click on the respective tab; the font weight of the tab on the active page is bold.
1. Login tab. Enter the information received from your provider or your administrator in the appropriate fields.
◦ Display name
The display name is optional and freely selectable. It will be sent to any parties you call unless you hide
your identity (see "Hiding my caller ID" on page 79). If you do not enter a display name, the data in
the "Account" text field will be shown on your display and sent to any parties you call unless you hide
your identity.
◦ Display text for idle screen
Any text you enter in in this text field will be shown - instead of your display name or account - on your
display only. It will not be sent to any parties you call.
◦ Ringtones
The phone has 10 built-in ringtones that can be assigned to identities, group types, and contact types.
It is also possible to download a custom melody and to turn off the ringer by selecting "Silent".
See "Assigning ringtones" on page 71.
2. SIP settings. Click on the SIP tab to bring the page to the front. It contains a number of technical settings
and textfields for entering URIs/URLs to various servers (for music-on-hold, for example), as well as some
behavior settings. These are:
Automatic acceptance of incoming calls: Auto Answer. The default setting is "off".
◦
Acoustic alert (one short beep) when the phone accepts a call automatically:
Preferences page > Auto Answer section > Auto Answer Indication. The default setting is "off".
◦ Contact List. A contact list must be available on a server. Click "on" and enter the Contact List URI.
◦ Identity can receive calls. The default setting is "on". The default setting is "on". If you want to be able to
use the identity for outgoing calls but do not wish other phones to be able to call the identity, turn the
setting off.
◦ Allow incoming extension monitoring. If you do not want other phones to be able to monitor the activity
on your phone, turn the setting off.
You can also allow only certain phones to monitor and pick up your calls. In this case, select the "On"
setting and enter a password into the next field of the next setting, "Extension monitoring group ID" .
The password cannot start with a "{" bracket.
Any phone allowed to monitor and pick up your calls must also use the same password in this text field.
