FANVIL Deskphone setting for dialing

@JaredBusch said in FANVIL Deskphone setting for dialing:

what about calling another extension?
What about calling internationally?
What about calling 911?
What about the user that dials a 1?

Ok. Got it.

Now I see two ways to dial faster, both have problems. The 10/11 digit doesn't deal with your examples, and even though this is a valid dial plan, it has many of the same flaws.

Dial plan: [2-9]xxxxxxxxx

It doesn't interfere with dialing 1 first. It doesn't interfere with international, BUT it fails on extension dialing and on 911 dialing.

Will it take more than one dial plan? Am I expecting to much to get it all into one plan?

I think I see how to do it with multiple rules by looking at this example:

This is doing what I want. Do I still have a scenario that will fail?

Dashrender

how about 1 first?

I just plugged in a Fanvil X4U but it seems to not work?

Yealink is simple. If you add this, it simply does it.

Fanvil's manual sucks balls.

I just tested this on my X5U

Seems to work, but only if you've first:

picked up the handset
pressed the speakerphone button
pressed the headset button

that's disappointing!
My previous phones would open speakerphone automatically if I dial and it matches.

Try disabling the Predial Feature - Phone Settings -> Features -> Enable Pre-Dial.

Dashrender

Well, @Romo is the man.

Change Phone settings > Features > Enable Pre-Dial to not checked (no idea what the default is) and the phone will enable speakerphone once you start dialing.

Romo

@Dashrender The default is Enable Pre-Dial checked.

JaredBusch

That makes the phone now act like every other phone on the planet.

It also respects the default 10s digit timeout once predial is disabled.

@Dashrender is index 1 for your extensions? 11xx, 12xx, 13xx?

We would assume, yes.

Also, one can only assume that it matches in order sequentially.

You could test that if you have multiple extensions on your phone.

Yes, this makes the system auto dial for my extension which are between 1100-1399

The manual contradicts itself. In one section it says if a number matches more than one dial plan rule, no rules are applied. In another section it says if a number matches more than one rule, the first rule is applied.

I don't see any way to re-index the rules. So I guess you have to delete and re-create in order.

Maybe I can export, modify, and import to sort the rules. Dumb.

Probably need to get a fanvil developer to start hanging out here...

If I was using this phone I would have it all in provisioning files. so I would fix it there and tell the phone to update with a sip notify.

It falls under the <call> heading.
