Appendix 3 - Programmable Functions
Following is a brief description of the function key settings available on the Function keys page of the
phone's web interface.
Freely programmable functions
Action URL Action URLs are basically HTTP GET Requests that allow the phone to interact with web
server applications. They can be used to send various data from the phone to a web
server, like the customized settings stored on the phone; passwords are replaced by
empty strings. Action URLs can be triggered by predened events ("Action URL Settings"
page of the phone's web interface) or manually by a pressing a function key that has
been programmed to trigger an action.
Auto Answer With this setting, your phone will automatically accept incoming calls when it is idle.
If you leave the text eld empty, incoming calls for all congured identities will be
accepted; if you enter the number of an identity in the text eld, only calls to that identity
will be accepted automatically (i.e., 1 for Identity 1, 2 for Identity 2 etc.).
BLF
(Busy Lamp Field)
This function key allows showing the status (idle, ringing, held call, busy) of another
extension on the key's LED. By pressing the key, it may also be possible to pick up calls
ringing on the extension, to dial the extension when the phone is idle, and to transfer an
incoming call ringing on your own extension. These functionalities depend on your PBX;
for more information, please check snom's interoperability page and the PBX manual.
With Asterisk, generally use this feature rather than extension.
Button This is a function key that is connected to your PBX to perform a task specied in the
buttons document. For more information, see the detailed feature description at http://
wiki.snom.com/Features/LED_Remote_Control.
Call Agent This function key can be used by call agents to perform one of three dierent functions,
depending on the value entered in the "Number" text eld:
• Logging onto and o the system.
Text eld entry: F_CALL_AGENT_LOGGEDIN.
• Signalìng readyness to accept calls. For this function to work, the agent must be
logged in. Text eld entry: F_CALL_AGENT_READY.
• Announcing that they are working after a call. For this function to work, the agent
must be logged in.
Text eld entry: F_CALL_AGENT_WORKINGAFTERCALL.
Conference Server This function key can be used for PBX-based conferences and for local conferences on
the phone itself.
• PBX-based conferences. When a conference room or conference account has been
created on the server for an individual identity, you can dedicate a function key to
calling and monitoring the conference room. Select the identity and the "Conference
server" function from the respective drop-down menus and enter the SIP URI of the
conference room in the "Number" text eld. For information on how to use this key
with your particular PBX, please check the PBX manual.
• Phone-based conferences. If there is no SIP URI in the text eld, pressing the
function key will initiate a phone-based conference with all held calls and any active
call.
