Calling by Entering a Name or Number
To place a call by entering a name or number:
1. In the dialing field, enter the dialing information. Depending on the
capabilities of your system and the system you are calling, the dialing
information could look like one of these samples:
— 10.11.12.13 (IP address—include the dots)
— 2555 (E.164 extension for H.323 or SIP)
— stereo.polycom.com (DNS name)
— [email protected] (SIP)
2. Enter any additional information needed for the call. The available
settings depend on the type of call and your system’s configuration. Not
all calls require these settings:
— Call Quality – Specify the call rate or call type for this call. For most
calls, choose Auto to let the system determine the best quality for the
call.
— Extension – If you need to dial an extension (E.164 address), enter the
extension in the second entry field. If your system is not configured
with a second entry field, you can enter the extension when the
gateway prompts you. You can also specify characters in the dial
string as instructed by the system administrator.
3. Press Call on the remote control to place the call.
Call progress indicators appear on the screen to show that the call is in
progress. When the indicators turn green, the call is connected.
