Button  Description 

 

This button leads back to the previous page of 
a fixed sequence of pages (used mainly in 
wizards).  

 

 

This button leads back to the page you have been on 
before. 

 

This button leads onward to the next page of a 
fixed sequence of pages (used mainly in 
wizards).

This is the last button of a fixed sequence of 
pages that completes and saves the entries of 
the whole sequence. 

This button discards an operation you chose before. 

 

This button has the same function like the

 

"

?

in the left button bar. It opens the help page 
belonging to the currently active QuadroCS 
management page. 

 

This button saves the settings modified on the 
currently active management page. 

This button opens a window where the last inserted IP 
addresses are listed. It is a clipboard that helps the 
user to make quick selection of an IP address in case it 
has been already used in the past, thus to avoid typing 
it again. The clipboard can hold up to 10 IP addresses, 
a new IP address will replace the oldest one from the 
list. 

 

Recurrent Functional Buttons of the GUI 

In connection with tables, the following buttons - among others - usually occur: 

Functional Button 

Description 

Add 

Allows adding a new record to the displayed table. A new page will be displayed to enter the new settings. 

Edit 

Allows modifying the settings of the record selected by its checkbox. Normally only one record may be selected. A new 
page will be displayed to enter the modified settings. 

Delete 

Deletes the selected entry(s) of a table. A warning message will demand a confirmation before deleting an existing entry. 

Select All 

Selects all table entry(s) for example for further deletion. 

Inverse Selection 

Inverts an existing selection of table entry(s). If no entries are selected, clicking the button will select all records. 

Refresh in... 

May occur in the lower right corner of a page. It displays the number of seconds remaining until the next refresh of the 
page and may be used to reload the page manually. 

Most of the tables offer the option to sort the entries in ascending or descending order by clicking the headings of the columns. A small arrow beside 
the column heading will show the direction of sorting – upward or downward.  

The entries of the table can be selected by the assigned checkboxes - one at a time, for the most part - in order to edit or delete them.  

 

Entering a SIP Addresses correctly 

Calls over IP are implemented based on Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) on the QuadroCS. When making a call to a destination that is somewhere 
on the Internet, SIP address must be given. 

SIP addresses have to be specified in one of the following formats:  

“display name” <username@ipaddress:port> 
“display name” <username@ipaddress> 
username@ipaddress:port 
username@ipaddress  
username 

 
The display name and the port number are optional parameters in the SIP address. If the port is not specified, 5060 will be set up as the default one. 
The range of valid ports is between 1024 and 65536. 

A flexible structure of wildcards is allowed. In comparison with a wildcard, the “?” character stands for only one unknown digit and the “*” character 
stands for any number of any digits.  

 

Particularly the following combinations can be used for your convenience:  

*@ipaddress

 - any user from the specified SIP server.  

username@*

 - a specified user from any SIP server.  

*@*

 - any user from any SIP server.  

Please Note:

 Wildcards are available for caller addresses 

only. No wildcard characters are allowed for called party 
addresses. To use “*” and “?” themselves (as non wildcard 
characters), use “\*” and “\?” correspondingly
