Door Opening feature (optional)

During conversation with the Turbine Video Station TCIV the integrated relay of the station can be operated by pressing a digit (default: digit 6) on the phone. As the phone by default is using DTMF signaling by RFC 2833, and this is supported by the Turbine range of stations, no further settings are required in the phone.

If the phone should operate the relay in other types of IP Substations (non-Turbine), the phone must be set to signal DTMF by SIP INFO.

• Click on Account > Advanced, and set DTMF Type to "SIP INFO":
