Dialing
For correct synchronisation of Microsoft Outlook contacts via the OpenStage Manager, the canon-
ical dialing settings must be configured appropriately.
Canonical Dialing Settings
Call numbers taken from a directory application are mostly expressed in canonical format. More-
over, call numbers entered into the local phone book are automatically converted and stored in
canonical format, thereby adding "+",
Local country code
,
Local national code
, and
Local en-
terprise node
as prefixes. If, for instance, the user enters the extension "1234", the local country
code is "49", the local national code is "89", and the local enterprise node is "722", the resulting
number in canonical format is "+49897221234".
For generating an appropiate dial string, a conversion from canonical format may be required. The
following parameters determine the local settings of the phone, like
Local country code
or
Local
national code
, and define rules for converting from canonical format to the format required by the
PBX.
