Star Codes
Star codes are short sequences of digits where each sequence serves as a command to the device to
perform certain operation. Each sequence usually starts with the * key followed by a 2-digit code (such as
*69).
You can use star codes to set the value of one or more configuration parameters. The device allows you to
issue star code from the handset only. Every star code and its operation are defined with a short star code
script parameter. The set of star codes that can be dialed from the handset is collectively referred to as a
star code profile.
Controlling Calls Using Star Codes
The device has two star code profiles available in its configuration, known as Star Code Profile A and Star
Code Profile B. Each profile has 30 star code script parameters, known as Code1 to Code30. You can select
which star code profile to use by setting Handset::StarCodeProfile to A or B, or None if star codes aren’t
used.
A star code script is defined with the help of a number of predefined variables and actions. Each variable
represents one or one group of configuration parameters. An action can be checking or setting the value of
a variable, collecting a phone number, or calling a certain number.
