Calling phone or extension numbers

There are currently two methods to make an extension number call:
a) Dial the numbers directly and wait for 4 (default) seconds.
b) Dial the numbers directly, and press # (assuming that "use #" as dial key is selected in web
configuration).
Examples:
• To dial another extension on the same proxy, such as 1008, simply pick up the attached phone,
dial 1008 and then press the # or wait for 4 seconds.
• To dial a PSTN number such as 6266667890, you might need to enter in some prefix number
followed by the phone number. Please check with your VoIP service provider to get the
information. If you phone is assigned with a PSTN-like number such as 6265556789, most
likely you just follow the rule to dial 16266667890 as if you were calling from a regular analog
phone of North America, then followed by pressing # or wait for 4 seconds.

Direct IP calls

Direct IP calling allows two parties, that is, a HandyTone with an analog phone and another VoIP
Device, to talk to each other in an ad hoc fashion without a SIP proxy. This kind of VoIP calls can be
made between two parties if:
• Both HT386 and other VoIP Device(i.e., another HandyTone ATA or Budgetone SIP phone or
other VoIP unit) have public IP addresses, or
• Both HT386 and other VoIP Device are on the same LAN using private IP addresses, or
• Both HT386 and other VoIP Device can be connected through a router using public or private
IP addresses (with necessary port forwarding or DMZ).
To make a direct IP call, first pick up the analog phone or turn on the speakerphone on the analog
phone, then access the voice menu prompt by dial "***" or press the button on the HandyTone-286,
and dials "47" to access the direct IP call menu. User will hear a voice prompt "Direct IP Calling" and
a dial tone. Enter a 12-digit target IP address to make a call. Destination ports can be specified by
using "*4" (encoding for ":") followed by the port number.
