DECT handset features
The user of a DECT handset subscribed on SIP DECT can do the
following.
• Make calls to valid DNs except restricted or blocked DNs.
• Receive and answer calls from the Call Server. If CPND is available,
the name of the caller and DN appear on the handset display. The
position and appearance of the name DN on the display depend on the
firmware installed on the handset.

another call can be made from the handset. After the second call is
established, the user can switch between the two calls with the R key.

You cannot use a DECT handset to configure Call Forward or Hunting,
or to configure Call Restrictions. You can configure these options from
the Call Server using overlays, or if a twinned configuration is used, the
twinned desk phone can be used to configure Call Forward for its Primary
DN with the existing keys or with Flexible Feature Codes (FFC).
CallPilot and Message Waiting Indication support
CallPilot can be used with DECT handsets subscribed on SIP DECT.
Call Forward No Answer can be configured for the Primary DN of the
UEXT so that the calls which are not answered on the corresponding
DECT handset or IP phone (in the case of a twinned configuration) are
forwarded to CallPilot. Calls can also be forwarded to CallPilot as busy
treatment for the Primary DN.
The CallPilot system can be called from a DECT handset and the user of
the handset can login to the voice mailbox with the corresponding DN and
password. The user can then use the voice menus of the system as usual.
Message Waiting Indications can be sent to the DECT handset through
the SIP Trunk. This is achieved by configuring additional DNs (to which
CallPilot sends MWI) for the voice mailbox corresponding to the UEXT
