D712/710 User Manual Customizing the Phone Settings
◦ Display name
The display name is optional and freely selectable. It will be sent to any parties you call
unless you hide your identity (see "Hide my caller ID" on page 79). If you do not enter a
display name, the data in the "Account" text field will be shown on your display and sent to any
parties you call unless you hide your identity.
◦ Display text for idle screen
Any text you enter in in this text field will be shown - instead of your display name or account -
on your display only. It will not be sent to any parties you call.
◦ Ringtones
The phone has 10 built-in ringtones that can be assigned to identities, group types, and contact
types. It is also possible to download a custom melody and to turn o the ringer by selecting
"Silent".
Assigning ringtones to identities: See "Assigning ringtones to identities" on page 70.
Assigning ringtones to contact type VIP and group types: See "Ringtones" on page 34.
Note: Ringers assigned to the contact type VIP and to any of the group types
override the ringers assigned to identities. For example, if you have assigned
Ringer 1 to one of the identities and Ringer 2 to the group "Colleagues", the phone
will play Ringer 2 when a contact from the "Colleagues" group calls that identity.
◦ Identity active
Each identity can be rendered inactive and removed from the phone's display without
removing its login information from the phone. Inactive identities are not shown on the
phone's display, and they cannot be called or used for making calls. To deactive an active
identity, click on the radio button o. To activate an inactive identity, click on the radio button
on.

monitoring group ID". The password cannot start with a "{" bracket.
