Support for ALS
Alternate line service (ALS) allows you to have more than one
line, and more than one phone number, to one SIM subscription.
If you are not subscribed to ALS, these dialogues and settings
are hidden.
Using ALS, you can select which line to use for outgoing calls.
You can use the first line for any function, while the second line
can be used for speech only.
Incoming calls can be received at both lines at any time. The
name of the line is shown and the ring signal defined for the line
is used.
To select a line for outgoing calls
The preset line is shown by the icon in the status bar. If you want
to use the other line:
•
With the Flip closed, press
and select
Switch to line 1
or
Switch to line 2
depending on the previously preset line.
•
With the Flip open, tap
and select
Switch to line 1
or
Switch
to line 2
depending on the previously preset line.
Corporate phone services in P908
The P908 can be used as a corporate phone in an Ericsson
MD110
®
or Business Phone
®
PBX, if this is equipped for
mobile extensions.
To place calls to colleagues, use the internal extension numbers.
When dialling an external number, you do not need to dial the
external line prefix; it is added automatically. Dial the
switchboard operator or corporate voicemail as from any other
corporate phone.
It is recommended that when storing numbers in Contacts you
use the international number format, starting with
+
. This also
allows you to use the Contact card when you do not use the
PBX, when you are abroad, and when you are sending SMS or
MMS messages.
If you know what numbers and codes your PBX accepts, you
can send these without the phone manipulating them. Start any
number or command with a
p
. This is done by pressing and
holding the
key. When storing such a number on a
Contact card, it should be stored with a leasing
p
, and a
command (to the PBX or for example to a phone bank) with a
leading
pc
.
When using it at home, the call will still be dialled as an internal
call via the PBX.
Note When travelling abroad, use your phone as a normal GSM
phone, by clicking the PBX status bar icon and set the calling
card to Off.
