Configuring the function keys
See "The phone's web interface" on page 28 on how to open the phone’s web interface and on the
mechanics of navigating in the windows and changing the settings. See "User mode/administrator
mode" on page 31 for an explanation of administrator and user mode.

you open another page of the web interface without first pressing "Apply"/"Save".
Function keys on Snom phones
Every phone has a limited number of hard keys. Phone users, however, have a myriad of
dierent priorities and preferences when asked which functions they use most often and which
functionalities they would like to access quickly. Snom has therefore designed the function keys to be
programmable, even the preprogrammed “hard keys” whose default function is printed on the casing.
The phone has four types of programmable function keys. See "At a glance" on page 16 for the
illustration of where to find them on the phone.
• Freely programmable function keys with LEDs (P1 - P5). All available functionalities, including
key events, can be programmed onto them.
◦ Context
This setting specifies which configured identity will be used when executing the functionality
of the key. You may want to use this feature when you have accounts with dierent providers
or when you want to present dierent identities to certain destinations.
Example: If you want to use key P3 to speed dial a specific number with the configured
Identity 2 as the outgoing identity, select Identity 2 from the drop-down menu of P3's
"Context". Speed dialing a number with a dedicated key: See "Example 3, Speed dialing" on
page 64.
