SIP IP Phone Models 53i, 55i, 57i, 57i CT Release Notes

These parameters were described in the previous section (

) and are repeated here for your convenience. These 

parameters have been incorporated into the 
Release 2.0.2 Administrator’s Guide.

Parameter – 
incoming call interrupts 
dialing

Incoming Call Interrupts 
Dialing
(in Web UI)

Basic Settings->Preferences->General

aastra.cfg, <mac>.cfg

Enable or disables how the phone handles incoming calls while the phone 

is dialing out.

When you enable this parameter (1 = true), an incoming call interrupts the 

outgoing call during dialing and allows the phone to ring for the user to 

answer the incoming call. 

When you disable this parameter (0 = fales), which is the default, the 

phone does not interrupt the outgoing call during dialing and instead rings 

the incoming call on another free line (or sends busy signal if all 

remaining lines are busy). You have a choice to ignore the incoming call, 

or answer the incoming call on another line. If you choose to answer the 

incoming call, you can answer the call, finish the call, and then hang up. 

You can still go back to the original outgoing call and finish dialing out.

On the 5i Series Phones:

If you disable this parameter (0=false), and the phone receives an 

incoming call while you are dialing an outgoing call, you can pick up the 

call and perform transfer or conference as required.

Note: After enabling or disabling this feature, it takes affect on the phone 

immediately.
