Phone applications
The following call features have been added to
M600:
•
In call menu: M600 has a dynamic in call menu
that changes to help the user perform actions
quickly and simply.
•
Accept Calls: users can specify which calls to
accept and which calls to rejected.
•
Rich call functionality: M600 allows SMS, MMS,
and contact cards to be easily sent during a call.
•
Call notes: M600 can launch Notes whilst a call
is ongoing. The note is automatically named
with the other party’s number, name (if known),
time of call and date. The user can start writing
in the note immediately.
•
Follow up call: M600 can automatically create
follow up call tasks. The task contains the
phone number, contact name, time of call, and
date of call.
•
Speakerphone.
Business telephony
Corporations have traditionally used fixed-line and
DECT phones in the office, but now there is a
strong trend towards the use of mobile phones to
access business telephony features. Of prime
importance, however, is that users can still access
the features and functionality of their corporate
communication system, no matter which phone
they are using. M600 can interact with the following
corporate systems:
•
A Corporate switch PABX, (Private Automatic
Branch Exchange), equipped with a mobile
extension port, (like the Ericsson MD110 and
BusinessPhone).
•
The mobile centrex service, if provided by the
operator.
•
Telephony server located at the operator’s or
customer’s premises.
Feature buttons
The user activates corporate features by selecting
commands from a list, which can be dynamically
sent by the server via an IP link, or pre-configured
by the company’s IT manage, the operator or a
service provider. Each command displays a text
description of the function.
When a command is selected, pre-configured
DTMF tones are user to communicate the desired
function to the server. The phone can even be used
to send data that the user is prompted to provide,
such as the date they will be back from a business
trip. Feature commands and text descriptions have
to be programmed using XML and then imported
into the phone.
In-call features are reached from the active call
view.
Offline commands and corporate telephony set-
tings can be accessed by pressing the ‘corporate
telephony’ icon once a calling card has been set
up. Activating a commands will result in an IP
packet being sent to the server.
Routing of corporate calls
If a company uses a PABX, calls must be routed via
the PABX to gain access to corporate features and
resources. M600 can route outgoing calls to the
corporate switch, instead of to the dialled B-party.
To complete a call, the B-number is then sent to
the mobile extension port of the PABX and the call
set-up is completed. This process is completely
transparent to the user.
A user may dial either an internal number, such as,
1234, or a public number, like +468 123 4567.
M600 can be set to bypass the switch for certain
types of calls.
