Notes:
Once button is pressed, it enters voice prompt main menu. If button is pressed again
while it is already in the voice prompt menu state, it jumps to “Direct IP Calling”
option and dial tone plays in this state:
‘*’ functions similar to ‘ ’key of BT-100 phone to select the nextmenu option
‘#’ returns back to main MENU
‘9’ is similar to ENTER key in many cases to confirman option
All entereddigit sequences have known lengths - 2 digits for menu option and 12
digits for IP address. Once all digits are accumulated, it automatically processes
them. Key entry cannot be deleted but the phone may prompt error once it is

4.2 Make Phone Calls
4.2.1Calling Phone or Extension Numbers
There are currently two methods to make a extension number call:
1) Dial the extension number directly and wait for 5 seconds.
2) You candial the numbers directly, and press #(assuming that “use #” as dial key
is selected in web configuration).
#Note: Currently, Flash, Transfer is not supported yet, Hold is normally a function
of Analog phone function.
4.2.2DirectIP Calls
Direct IP calling allows 2 phones, that is, a HandyTone with a analog phone and
another VOIP Device,to talk to each other in an adhoc fashion without a SIP proxy.
VoIP calls canbe made between two phonesif :
•bothHandyTone ATA and other VOIP Device (i.e., another HandyTone ATAor
other HandyTone ATA) have public IP addresses, or
•bothHandyTone ATA and other VOIP Device (i.e., another HandyTone ATAor
other HandyTone ATA) are on a same LAN using private or public IP addresses,
or
•bothHandyTone ATA and other VOIP Device (i.e., another HandyTone ATAor
other HandyTone ATA) canbe connected through a router using public or
private IP addresses.
To make a direct IP calling, first pick up the analog phone or turn on the
speakerphone on the analog phone, then follow Section 4.1 with voice prompt 47,
followedby the 12-digit target IP address. If there is a user part, again follow
Section 4.1 with voiceprompt 47, and then the encoded user part, followed by *3
(encoding for “@”) and then followed by the12-digit target IP address. Destination
ports can also be specified using *4 (encoding for “:”) followed by the encoded port
number.

HandyTone-286 User Manual Grandstream Sdn Bhd
The follow is a table of the encoding scheme for the most commonlyused
characters:

12
HandyTone-286 User Manual Grandstream Sdn Bhd
The rule of thumb to remember these encoding is: “a” is the first letter on button
“1” so its encoding is “11”. “b” is the 2nd letter on button “1” and its encoding is
“12”. “c” is the 3rd letter on button “1” and its encoding is “13”. Likewise, “d” is
the first letter on button “2” and its encoding is “21”. This pattern and rule
applies to all other alphabetic encoding.
Examples:
1) If the target IP address is 192.168.0.160, the dialing convention is
Voice Prompt with option 47, then 192168000160
followedby pressing the “#” key is it is configured as a send key or wait for
more than5 seconds. In this case, the default destination port 5060 is used if no
port is specified.
2) If the target IP address/port is 192.168.1.20:5062, then the dialing convention
would be:
Voice Prompt with option 47, then 192168001020*45062
followedby pressing the “#” key is it is configured as a send key or wait for 5
seconds.
3) If the target address is [email protected].1.100:5062, then the dialing convention
would be:
Voice Prompt with option 47, then 51634262*3192168001100*45062
followedby pressing the “#” key is it is configured as a send key or wait for 5
seconds.
