Feature (star) codes

The star codes you can dial from phones in intSignal Connect: echo test, hear your extension number, Do not disturb on and off, and recording auto attendant greetings and announcements.

Feature codes are shortcuts you dial from a phone on your workspace, including the browser phone. They work on every extension, with no setup. A reference card is also in Admin → Settings → Settings → Settings & Compliance → Feature codes.

Tips

  • Test a new phone or headset with *43 before your first real call.
  • Do not disturb doesn't stop ring-group calls. See Do not disturb.
  • Voicemail is checked in the app, under Phone → Voicemail, or from your email alerts. See Voicemail.
  • Because 600, 911 and 933 have special meanings, don't use them as numbers for extensions, groups, queues or menus.
