To send DTMF signals via VoIP you must first define how key codes should be con-
verted into and sent as DTMF signals: as audible information via the speech channel
or as an "SIP Info" message. Ask your VoIP provider which type of DTMF transmis-
sion it supports.
You can configure your telephone in such a way that it attempts with each call to
set the most suitable DTMF signalling for the current codec (Automatic negotia-
tion of DTMF transmission).
Or you can explicitly define the type of DTMF signalling:
u
Audio or RFC 2833 if DTMF signals are to be transmitted acoustically (in voice
packets).
u
SIP info if DTMF signals are to be transmitted as code.
Please note
u
The settings for DTMF signalling apply to all VoIP connections (VoIP
accounts).
u
DTMF signals cannot be transmitted in the audio path (Audio) on broadband
connections (the G.722 codec is used).
Configuring call transfer via VoIP
You can change the settings for call transfer in the Call Transfer area on the Web
page:

You can connect an external call to one of your VoIP connections with a second
external participant (depending on the provider). You do this by establishing an
external consultation call to the second participant and pressing the R key on the
handset once you have registered the second participant. The call is transferred.
You can expand or change the settings for call transfer as follows:
u
You can activate call transfer by ending the call. The two external participants
are connected with one another when you press the end call key a on the
handset. Your connections with the participants are terminated.
u
You can activate direct call transfer. You can then transfer the call before the sec-
ond participant has answered.
u
You can deactivate call transfer with the R key if you want to assign a different
feature to the R key (

You can specify the function for the R key on the Web page:

Telephony
Your VoIP provider may support special performance features. To make use of these
features, your phone needs to send a specific signal (datapacket) to the SIP server.
You can assign this "signal" as the R function to the R key of the handsets. Prerequi-
site: The R key is not used for call divert (default setting, see above).
If you press this key during a VoIP call, the signal is sent. This requires that DTMF sig-
nalling via SIP info messages is activated on the phone (see above).
