Call types
Definition
The phone connection can be either a
Standard voice
connection or a
3.1 kHz audio
connection.
• For
outgoing calls
, the call type is
Standard voice
by default.
You can change the call type for your call to 3.1 kHz audio by dialing
2*
before the number.
• For incoming calls, you can set up in the web interface which call types you want to receive
on the Phone, ISDN or LAN/WLAN interface (IP handset). Only the call types selected for an
interface are received on that interface (by default, all call types are accepted).
When receiving calls, the mobile number determines which call type is used. In your airtime
subscription you have one number for 3.1 kHz audio and one number for Standard voice.
Remember that the call is only received on an interface if the call type used is selected for that
interface.
For information on how to set up the call types in the web interface, see
