General
An identity contains all the configuration data needed to register on a PBX/with the provider and to enable telephoning. Up to 6 identities can be configured for the phone. One of these identities is the default identity.
The following applies to the default identity:
• There is only one default identity.
• The default identity is automatically used for dialled calls.
• If only one identity has been configured, it is automatically the default identity.
• If more than one identity has been set up, you can configure an Identity function key for each identity. If necessary, (e.g. if there is a problem with the default identity), you can simply press the appropriate function key to set another current identity as the default identity.
Note: The exception to this are the fallback identities. Fallback identities inherit their status from the main identity.
Caution: The default identity does not switch automatically. If a default identity fails, the LED on the appropriate function key lights up red.
