Internet Connection Set-Up and Configuration
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the OBi INTERNET port and the other end of the Ethernet cable to an Ethernet port
on your Internet router or Ethernet switch. By default the OBi will request an IP, DNS and Internet (WAN) Gateway IP
addressing via DHCP.
PHONE Port Set-Up and Configuration
A phone has a very basic UI (User Interface) for I/O (Input / Output) of signalling or control messages.
The OBi PHONE port supports input signalling and control messages comprised of: On Hook, Off Hook, Hook Flash, DTMF
tones.
The OBi PHONE port supports output signalling and control messages comprised of: Caller ID/CWCID, MWI, DTMF/Tone,
Ring, Pol-Rev, CPC, Power Denial.
The OBi PHONE port has a Maximum Sessions capacity of two (2). This is not configurable.
The OBi PHONE port will reply BUSY to a new incoming call when:

The PHONE port already has 2 calls in session.

The PHONE port is ringing the phone.

The phone is in a dialing or fast busy “Invalid” state.

The OBi is already in a FAX call.
The OBi PHONE port supports Call Waiting when a 2nd call is an inbound call:

A Hook-Flash (or depressing the Flash button) invokes switching between two (2) calls.

When the OBi PHONE port goes On-Hook this will end current call and invoke a ring for the holding call.
The OBi PHONE port supports 3-way Calling when the second call is an outbound call.
On the first Hook-Flash during an active call the OBi can make a second outbound call.
On the second Hook-Flash, the first call and the second outbound call are placed in a conference.
To remove the second conferenced party, invoke a third Hook-Flash.
When the OBi goes On-Hook during a 3-way Call, this will become a transfer when 2
nd
(outbound) call is ringing or
connected. If the 2
nd
(outbound) call does not succeed, e.g. no answer or busy, then the OBi PHONE port can go to an On
Hook state and will ring as the holding call is still on the line, or simply Hook-Flash to resume the first call.
The OBi PHONE port can select from the following services to which it can complete a call: SP1 Service (SP1), SP2 Service
(SP2), SP3 Service (SP3), SP4 Service (SP4), OBiBlueTooth 1 Service (BT1), OBiBlueTooth 2 Service (BT2), OBiTALK Service
(PP1), and PSTN Line (LI1).

Using the OBi as a Paging System
You may connect the OBi PHONE port to an external PA system via an RJ11-to-Line-Out connector (available at many
popular electronics shops), and enable the PHONE port option UseForPagingOnly. In this configuration, the phone port is
expected to be “off-hook” all the time. The OBi will automatically answer incoming calls. It will not accept call-waiting.
