Softkeys for Accessing XML Services
The 55i IP phone has a feature you can enable called "XML" (Extensible
Markup Language). XML is a markup language much like HTML. Your
system administrator can create customized XML menu services and load
them to your IP phone. These services include things like weather and
traffic reports, contact information, company info, stock quotes, or custom
call scripts.
Note: You can configure XML using the Aastra Web UI only.
On the 55i IP phone, you can access the XML applications from the IP
Phone UI in two ways:
• Via the "Services" menu
• Via an XML softkey
Note: The XML services must be set up by your system administrator before you can
use the key. Contact your system administrator for more information.
By default, the Services key is the first key on the "Top" softkeys.
Using the Aastra Web UI, you can setup the Services menu on the IP phone
to display XML applications. Under Operations->Softkeys and XML, you
can click on the "Top Keys" tab and enter the XML URI and Services Label
in the "XML Application URI" and XML Application Title" fields,
respectively.
Note: Contact your system administrator for the applicable URI to enter in this field.
After the Services menu is configured, you can use the IP Phone UI and
press the Services key to access the XML applications.
Using the Aastra Web UI, you can also configure a softkey to access XML
applications. Under Operations->Softkeys and XML, you can click on the
"Bottom Keys" or "Top Keys" tabs and assign a key type as "XML". You
must also set the following for XML softkeys:
• XML Application URI
• XML Application Title
