If the feature is offered by the soft-switch, the phone does nothing but to make the option available to view and set by
the user from the GUI.
The feature can be made available in several ways by a combination of phone and soft switch, which we will discuss
later. When the feature is available, the administrator will let the user enable or disable the feature from the phone
using one of the following methods:
•
Using a star code: By default *67 to use Caller ID Block for one call only, dial *67 and then the destination
number. To use Caller ID Block on a persistent basis, dial *81 from the handset attached to the OBi. All calls will use
the Caller ID Block feature until you cancel the Caller ID Block. To cancel Caller ID Block, dial *82 from the handset
attached to the OBi
•
Using a feature key: Administrator defines a feature key wi
th the function “Block Caller ID”
Block Anonymous Call
Block Anonymous Call allows you to block incoming calls that has have no identifying caller ID number. Incoming calls
will be presented with a busy signal or busy call treatment (such as Call Forward On Busy). The administrator can make
this feature available to end-user configurations with one of the following methods:
-
Star code: To use Anonymous Call Block, from the phone attached to the OBi, dial *77. To cancel Anonymous
Call Block, from the phone attached to the OBi, dial *87.
-
Feature Key with the function “Block Anonymous Call”
This feature has both Phone version and Line versions.
Calling Line ID Display
(SIP/SP only) When making an outgoing call, OBi1000 accepts SIP UPDATE method from the Soft-Switch that may
contain the called party’s name and number. OBi1000 then updates the phone screen with the called party information
from the SIP UPDATE request. There are no configuration parameters for this feature.
The OBi can also identify the called party ID from the 18x and 2xx responses to the outbound INVITE message.
Call Forwarding
Call Forwarding allows you to send incoming calls to another number of your choosing. Calls can be forwarded to a
number reachable from the landline service, VoIP service or OBiTALK network. Three types of call forwarding are
supported: Call Forward Unconditional (same as Call Forward All), Call Forward On Busy, and Call Forward On No
Answer.
There is one set of Call Forward Settings per Line and one additional set at the phone level. Incoming calls on a
particular Line are processed by the call forwarding rules at that line level first, then at the phone level, whichever is
applicable.
Call Forward Numbers
Calls may be forwarded to numbers on the same service or on another service. Therefore each call forward number
stored in the OBi configuration MUST include call routing information to let the device know which voice service should
be used to forward the call to. The general format of a call forward number is:
TK
(number)
where
TK
is the abbreviated name of a voice service. Valid values of
TK
are SP
n
for the SP
n
Voice Service where
n
= 1
–
8, BT1, BT2 for OBiBluetooth 1/2, or PP for the OBiTALK Service.
The
number
to forward to must be in the final form that is acceptable by the service provider. The OBi will not apply
any Digit Map or Call Routing Rules on it.
