Contact Types

VIP: Calls from numbers with this contact type will ring on your phone even when DND mode is active.

You can assign a ringtone to this contact type. If your VIP is also assigned to a group (see below) and

if that group has a distinct ringtone, the ringtone assigned to the group will be played.

Deny List: Calls from phone numbers with this contact type will not ring on your phone. The caller

hears the "Busy" signal.

Outgoing identity

The default setting is "Active" which means that the phone will use the current outgoing identity

whenever you dial the number of the phone book entry.

You can also select a speciﬁc identity to be used as the outgoing identity whenever the number is

dialed, for example, if you want to use a speciﬁc VoIP provider for these calls.

Note: To use an outgoing identity speciﬁed in the directory, you must dial the number

from the directory. If you simply type it on the keypad, the current outgoing identity, as

indicated on the display, will be used.

Group

The available group types are Friends, Family, Work, Colleagues. You can assign a distinct ringtone to

each group type.

Ringtones

The phone has 10 built-in ringtones that can be assigned to group and contact types. It is also

possible to download a custom melody.

Assigning ringtones to identities: See "Assigning ringtones" on page 68.

Assigning ringtones to contact type VIP and group types

Preferences > Directory Ringtones.

Select a ringtone from the respective drop-down menu and click on "Apply". If you choose "Custom

Melody URL", enter the URL to the data ﬁle in the text ﬁeld. It must be a ﬁle of the type PCM 8 kHz 16

bit/sample (linear) mono WAV.

Note: Ringers assigned to contact type VIP and to any of the group types override the

ringers assigned to the identities. For example, if you have assigned ringer 1 to one of

the identities and ringer 2 to the group "Colleagues", the phone will play ringer 2 when a

contact from the "Colleagues" group calls that identity.
