Dial prefix feature

What is dial prefix?

Some of the prefix numbers (a set of specific numbers that should be added to the beginning of a telephone
number) that are commonly used, but differ from country/region to country/region, are pre-set to ST500 as
Preset Dial Plan.
As the following example shows, the outside line call prefix number and country/region-specific international
prefix numbers are replaced with a single "+" to make originating an international call simpler.
Example of Calling from Japan to the U.S.
● Standard Dialing Method

Prefix Number
0
● Dialing Method with Dial Prefix Feature (Japan is selected for Preset Dial Plan)
Note:
Preset Dial Plan is currently available for the following countries and regions,
Japan, France, North America, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji (Telecom Fiji), Fiji (Fintel), Papua New Guinea,
Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, Philippines, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong,
Macau, Korea and Italy.
You can also make new rules by registering a new prefix number. For example, if you wish to make a rule
of adding 0 to the beginning of an outside telephone number, you can register this setting by using regular
expression. By using this rule, you can make an outside line call without changing the settings of your
phonebook.
