Star Codes
Star codes are short sequences of digits that serve as a command to your system to perform certain
operations. Each sequence usually starts with the star (*) key followed by a 2-digit code (such as *69).
You can use star codes to set the value of one or more configuration parameters. VVX D230 allows you to
issue a star code from the handset only. A short star code script parameter defines each star code and its
operation.
A star code script contains a number of predefined variables and actions. Each variable represents one or
a group of configuration parameters. An action can be checking or setting a variable’s value, collecting a
phone number, or calling a certain number.
The set of star codes that you can dial from the handset is a
star code profile
. VVX D230 has two star code
profiles available in its configuration known as Star Code Profile A and Star Code Profile B. Each profile has
30 star code script parameters known as Code1 to Code30. The default star codes in both Star Code Profiles
match the standard telephone provider star codes.
