Dial First Digit

 

Overview

When pressing a key while the phone is in screen saver or timeout mode, the phone can accept the key press, or ignore the key press and wake up.

Setting Dial First Digit option

  • You can set the Dial First Digit option using the PBX EndPoint Manager.

  • Go into End Point Manager in your PBX and select the Sangoma brand in the menu.

  • Click on the template in End Point Manager that you want to modify.

     

  • Click on the Options menu tab at the top
     

     

  • There is two options for Dial First Digit.

     

    • Wake Up - key press will not be processed, but phone will wake up and accept any keys pressed until the timeout or screen saver enables again.

    • Wake Up and Dial - key press will wake up phone and be processed.

  • You now need to update the phone configuration file. The three options at the bottom of the template are:

  • Save Template- This will only save your changes into the PBX database. It will not write out new config files for the phones that are using this template as mapped in the Extension Mapping section of End Point Manager.

  • and Rebuild Configs- This will save your changes to the PBX Database and will also write out new config files for the phones that are using this template as mapped in the Extension Mapping section of End Point Manager. The phones will need to be rebooted in order to retrieve the changes.

  • and Force Update- This will do both the "Save Template" and the "and Rebuild Configs" options above, and it will also immediately update any phones that are mapped to use this template and currently registered to the PBX, with no need to reboot the phones.
