How to configure
For this feature to work, the following must be configured:
• DSS Key: A direct station selection (DSS) key must be configured for the Dial by Name feature. Without
the DSS Key this feature will not be accessible.
SPARSH VP248 has DSS Key labeled as 'Names' whereas SPARSH VP310 has the Fixed Function Key
labeled as ‘Contacts’.
• Global Directory: The names of the external parties must be configured against their respective
telephone numbers in the directory. Refer the topic “Abbreviated Dialing” for instructions on configuring
Global Directories.
• Personal Directory: The names of the external parties must be configured against their respective
numbers in the Personal Directory. Refer the topic “Abbreviated Dialing” for instructions on configuring
Personal Directories.
The Personal Directory must be assigned to the Extensions.
• Extension Names: Extensions may be SLTs and SIP extensions. Refer “Extension and Feature Codes”
under Basic Settings for instructions on assigning names to extensions.
• Class of Service: Dial By Name is allowed to all Extended IP Phone users. However, the use of this
feature is related to the following features, which must be enabled in the Class of Service of the SIP
extension users:
• Internal Calls- This is a part of the Basic Features. By default these are enabled.
• Global Directory Part 1
• Global Directory Part 2
• Global Directory Part 3
Global Directory Part 1 is assigned to all extension by default.
If you want the names to be drawn from Global Directory Part 2 and Part 3, provided these are
programmed, you must enable these two directories in the CoS of the SIP extensions. See “Class of
Service (CoS)” for instructions.
The system will display the names exactly as they have been configured in the Personal and Global
Directories.
