Access Code Prefix

The FortiFone-450i/FortiFone-550i phone can automatically prepend digits* to a phone number dialed
from the Missed Calls log, Received Calls log or Phone Book. For example, you should program a Hunt
Group (ie. 9) if you normally dial 9 to reach an outside line. This will ensure that calls placed from the Call
Logs or Phone Book are properly dialed out of the system.
To program an Access Code:
• Press the button, then select 4. Call Preferences, then 8. Access Code Prefix.
• Enter the digits that need to be prepended to all numbers dialed
from the Call Logs or Phone Book.
• Press the OK softkey when complete.
Note: If you use Direct Line Access (No Hunt Group required to place
calls), then nothing needs to be programmed.
* There is a configurable parameter in the web interface under Call Preferences to change the length of a
number dialed before the phone will insert the Access Code. The default length is 6. Any numbers stored
in a log or phone book will have the Access Code prepended if 6 or more digits in length.

Phone Book

The phone supports 80 contacts that can be entered via the phone or via the web interface. Each contact
can have a ring type assigned. When a call is received from the contact, the specified ring signal is used to
override the default ring type.
The Phone Book menu is accessed through the LCD menu or when assigned, a Phone Book flexible
button. From the Phone Book menu, records may be added, edited, deleted or searched.

Adding a Phone Book Record

To simplify the addition of many contacts to the Phone Book, a comma delimited contact list file can be
uploaded directly to the phone using the web interface.
