Introduction

Overview

The phone can display the extension number of the default SIP line on the home screen. Users can also customize the display content to show other text instead of the local extension number.

Applicable Models

All of our phone models support this feature (X5U is used in this article as an example).

Prerequisites

① One phone, connected to the switch and able to obtain an IP address.
② One computer for configuration, connected to the same switch as the phone to ensure network communication between the computer and the phone.
