HandyTone-488 has one FXS port and one FXO port. The RJ11 jack next to the LAN port
is a FXS port. The RJ11 jack on the side of the HandyTone-488 is a FXO port. Both the FXS
port and the FXO port can have a separate SIP account. This is a key feature of HandyTone-
488. Telephone calls can be originated or terminated from/to the PSTN network via FXO port.
Following are the steps to install a HandyTone-488:
1. Connect a standard touch-tone analog telephone to the FXS port.
2. Insert a standard RJ11 telephone cable into the FXO port and connect the other end of
the telephone cable to a wall jack.
3. Insert the Ethernet cable into the WAN port of HandyTone-488 and connect the other
end of the Ethernet cable to an uplink port (a router or a modem, etc.)
4. Connect a PC to the LAN port of HandyTone-488.
5. Insert the power adapter into the HandyTone-488 and connect it to a wall outlet.
Please follow the instructions in section 6.2.1 to configure the HandyTone-488.

5.2 Make Phone Calls
5.2.1 Calling phone or extension numbers
To make a phone or extension number call:
a) Dial the number directly and wait for 4 seconds (default “No Key Entry Timeout”) .
Or
b) Dial the number directly, and press # (assuming that “Use # as dial key” is selected
in web configuration).
Other functions available during the call are call-waiting/flash, call-transfer, and call-forward.
5.2.2 Direct IP calls
Direct IP calling allows two phones, that is, a HandyTone with an analog phone and another
VoIP Device, to talk to each other in an ad hoc fashion without a SIP proxy. VoIP calls can be
made between two phones if:
• Both HandyTone ATA and the other VoIP device (i.e., another HandyTone ATA or
other SIP products) have public IP addresses, or
• Both HandyTone ATA and the other VoIP device (i.e., another HandyTone ATA or
other SIP produces) are on the same LAN using private or public IP addresses, or
• Both HandyTone ATA and the other VoIP device (i.e., another HandyTone ATA or
other SIP products) can be connected through a router using public or private IP
addresses.
To make a direct IP call, first pick up the analog phone or turn on the speakerphone on the
analog phone, then follow Section 5.1 with voice prompt 47, followed by the 12-digit target IP
address. Destination ports can be specified by using “*4” (encoding for “:”) followed by the
encoded port number. Following is a table of the encoding scheme for the most commonly
used characters:

: (column character)
Examples:
If the target IP address is 192.168.0.160, the dialing convention is
Voice Prompt with option 47, then 192168000160
followed by pressing the “#” key if it is configured as a send key or wait 4 seconds. In this
case, the default destination port 5060 is used if no port is specified.
If the target IP address/port is 192.168.1.20:5062, then the dialing convention would be:
Voice Prompt with option 47, then 192168001020*45062 followed by pressing the “#” key if
it is configured as a send key or wait for 4 seconds.
5.2.3 Blind Transfer
Assuming that call party A and B are in conversation. A wants to Blind Transfer B to C:
1. A presses FLASH (on the analog phone, or Hook Flash for old model phones) to get a
dial tone.
2. Then A dials *87 then dials C’s number, and then #(or wait for 4 seconds)
3. A can hang up.
Note: Call Feature has to be set to YES.
A can hold on to the phone and wait for one of the three following behaviors:
• A quick confirmation tone (temporarily using the call waiting indication tone) followed
by a dial tone. This indicates the transfer is successful (transferee has received a 200
OK from transfer target). At this point, A can either hang up or make another call.
• A quick busy tone followed by a restored call (on supported platforms only). This
means the transferee has received a 4xx response for the INVITE and we will try to
recover the call. The busy tone is just to indicate to the transferor that the transfer has
failed.
• Busy tone keeps playing. This means we have failed to receive the second NOTIFY
from the transferee and decided to time out. Note: this does not indicate the transfer
has been successful, nor does it indicate the transfer has failed. When transferee is a
client that does not support the second NOTIFY (such as our own earlier firmware),
this will be the case. In bad network scenarios, this could also happen, although the
transfer may have been completed successfully.
5.2.4 Attended Transfer
Assuming that call party A and B are in conversation. A wants to Attend Transfer B to C:
11
HandyTone-488 User Manual
Grandstream Networks, Inc.
1. A presses FLASH (on the analog phone, or Hook Flash for old model phones) to get a
dial tone
2. A then dial C’s number then # (or wait for 4 seconds). A and C now in conversation.
3. A can hang up.
Note: When intended Transfer failed, if A hangs up, the HandyTone-488 will ring user A
again to remind A that B is still on the call, by pressing FLASH or Hook again will restore the
conversation between A and B.
5.2.5 Send and Receive PSTN Calls
Users can send and receive calls from PSTN. To receive PSTN calls, simply take the phone
off hook when the analog phone rings. To make a PSTN call, first press *00 (or your own
PSTN Access Code) to get the PSTN line dial tone and dial the PSTN number.
5.2.6 VoIP-to-PSTN Calls
To make a VoIP-to-PSTN call, users need to dial the FXO SIP account phone number first. A
ring tone is played once followed by a dial tone. At this time, users can dial a PSTN
telephone number or a mobile telephone number then # (or wait for 4 seconds). The call will
be established afterwards. If no PSTN number is entered after the dial tone, HandyTone-488
will hang up automatically in 10 seconds.
5.2.7 PSTN-to-VoIP Calls
To make a PSTN-to-VoIP call, PSTN callers need to originate a call to the FXO port
telephone number first. If no one answers the FXS phone after 4 ring tones, a dial tone is
played. At this time, users can dial a VoIP telephone number then # (or wait for 4 seconds).
The call will be established afterwards. If no VoIP number is entered after the dial tone,
HandyTone-488 will hang up automatically in 10 seconds.

IP Address
There are 2 modes under which the HandyTone ATA can operate:
- If DHCP mode is enabled, then all the field values for the Static IP
mode are not used (even though they are still saved in the Flash
memory.) The HandyTone ATA will acquire its IP address from the
first DHCP server it discovers from the LAN it is connected.
To use the PPPoE feature the PPPoE account settings need to be
set. The HandyTone will attempt to establish a PPPoE session if any
of the PPPoE fields is set.
- If Static IP mode is enabled, then the IP address, Subnet Mask,
Default Router IP address, DNS Server 1 (primary), DNS Server 2
(secondary) fields will need to be configured. These fields are reset to
zero by default.

Expiration
This parameter allows the user to specify the time frequency (in
minutes) the HandyTone ATA refreshes its registration with the
specified registrar. The default interval is 60 minutes (or 1 hour). The
maximum interval is 65535 minutes (about 45 days).
Local SIP port
Local RTP port
This parameter defines the local SIP port the HandyTone ATA will listen
and transmit. The default value for FXS port is 5060. The default value
for FXO port is 5062.
This parameter defines the local RTP-RTCP port pair the HandyTone
ATA will listen and transmit. It is the base RTP port for channel 0. When
configured, channel 0 will use this port _value for RTP and the
port_value+1 for its RTCP; channel 1 will use port_value+2 for RTP and
port_value+3 for its RTCP. The default value for FXS port is 5004. The
default value for FXO port is 5008.
Enable Call
Features
Default is No. If set to Yes, Call Forwarding & Do-Not-Disturb are
supported locally
Send DTMF
This parameter controls how DTMF events are transmitted. There are 3
ways: in audio which means DTMF is combined in audio signal (not very
reliable with low-bit-rate codec), via RTP (RFC2833), or via SIP INFO.
23
HandyTone-488 User Manual
Grandstream Networks, Inc.
DTMF Payload
Type
This parameter sets the payload type for DTMF using RFC2833
Preferred
Vocoder
The HandyTone ATA supports up to 7 different Vocoder types including
G.711 A-/U-law,G.723.1, G.726, G.728, G.729A/B, iLBC. Depending
on the product model, some of these Vocoders may not be provided in
standard release.
Users can configure Vocoders in a preference list that will be included
with the same preference order in SDP message. The first Vocoder in
this list can be entered by choosing the appropriate option in “Choice 1”.
Similarly, the last Vocoder in this list can be entered by choosing the
appropriate option in “Choice 7”.
Voice Frames per This field contains the number of voice frames to be transmitted in a
TX
single packet. When setting this value, the user should be aware of the
requested packet time (used in SDP message) as a result of configuring
this parameter. This parameter is associated with the first vocoder in the
above vocoder Preference List or the actual used payload type
negotiated between the 2 conversation parties at run time.
e.g., if the first vocoder is configured as G723 and the “Voice Frames
per TX” is set to be 2, then the “ptime” value in the SDP message of an
INVITE request will be 60ms because each G723 voice frame contains
30ms of audio. Similarly, if this field is set to be 2 and if the first vocoder
chosen is G729 or G711 or G726, then the “ptime” value in the SDP
message of an INVITE request will be 20ms.
If the configured voice frames per TX exceeds the maximum allowed
value, the HandyTone ATA will use and save the maximum allowed
value for the corresponding first vocoder choice. The maximum value for
PCM is 10(x10ms) frames; for G726, it is 20 (x10ms) frames; for G723,
it is 32 (x30ms) frames; for G729/G728, 64 (x10ms) and 64 (x2.5ms)
frames respectively.
G723 Rate:
This defines the encoding rate for G723 vocoder. By default, 6.3kbps
rate is chosen.
iLBC frame size: This sets the iLBC size in 20ms or 30ms
iLBC payload
type:
This defines payload time for iLBC. Default value is 98. The valid range
is between 96 and 127.
Silence
Suppression
This controls the silence suppression/VAD feature of G723 and G729. If
set to “Yes”, when a silence is detected, small quantity of VAD packets
(instead of audio packets) will be sent during the period of no talking. If
set to “No”, this feature is disabled.
SIP Registration
This parameter controls whether the HandyTone ATA needs to send
REGISTER messages to the proxy server. The default setting is “Yes”.

Unregister on
Reboot
Default is No. If set to yes, the SIP user will be unregistered on reboot.
Layer 3 QoS
Layer 2 QoS
Use DNS SRV:
This field defines the layer 3 QoS parameter which can be the value
used for IP Precedence or Diff-Serv or MPLS. Default value is 48.
This contains the value used for layer 2 VLAN tag. Default setting is
blank.
Default is No. If set to Yes the client will use DNS SRV for server lookup
User ID is Phone
Number
If the HandyTone ATA has an assigned PSTN telephone number, this
field should be set to “Yes”. Otherwise, set it to “No”. If “Yes” is set, a
“user=phone” parameter will be attached to the “From” header in SIP
request
Early Dial
Default is No. Use only if proxy supports 484 response
Sets the prefix added to each dialed number
Default is 4 seconds.
Dial Plan Prefix
No Key Entry
Timeout
Use # as
Send Key
This parameter allows users to configure the “#” key to be used as the
“Send” (or “Dial”) key. If set to “Yes”, pressing this key will immediately
trigger the sending of dialed string collected so far. In this case, this key
is essentially equivalent to the “(Re)Dial” key. If set to “No”, this “#” key
will then be included as part of the dial string to be sent out.
Use Random Port This parameter, when set to Yes, will force random generation of both
the local SIP and RTP ports. This is usually necessary when multiple
HandyTone ATAs are behind the same NAT.
NAT Traversal
This parameter defines whether the HandyTone ATA NAT traversal
mechanism will be activated or not. If activated (by choosing “Yes”) and
a STUN server is also specified, then the HandyTone ATA will behave
according to the STUN client specification. Under this mode, the
embedded STUN client inside the HandyTone ATA will attempt to detect
if and what type of firewall/NAT it is sitting behind through
communication with the specified STUN server. If the detected NAT is a
Full Cone, Restricted Cone, or a Port-Restricted Cone, the HandyTone
ATA will attempt to use its mapped public IP address and port in all its
SIP and SDP messages. If the NAT Traversal field is set to “Yes” with
no specified STUN server, the HandyTone ATA will periodically (every
20 seconds or so) send a blank UDP packet (with no payload data) to
the SIP server to keep the “hole” on the NAT open.
25
HandyTone-488 User Manual

Keep-alive
interval
This parameter specifies how often the HandyTone ATA sends a blank
UDP packet to the SIP server in order to keep the “hole” on the NAT
open.
Use NAT IP:
NAT IP address used in SIP/SDP message. Default is blank.
Proxy-Require
SIP Extension to notify SIP server that the unit is behind the
NAT/Firewall.
TFTP Upgrade
Server
This is the IP address of the configured TFTP server. If it is non-zero or
not blank, the HandyTone ATA will attempt to retrieve new configuration
file or new code image from the specified TFTP server at boot time. It
will make up to 3 attempts before timeout and then it will start the boot
process using the existing code image in the Flash memory. If a TFTP
server is configured and a new code image is retrieved, the new
downloaded image will be verified and then saved into the Flash
memory.
HTTP Upgrade
Server
The URL for the HTTP server used for firmware upgrade and
configuration via HTTP. For example,
Here “:6688” is the specific TCP port that the HTTP server is listening
at, it can be omitted if using default port 80.
Note: Auto Upgrade has to be set to Yes to enable HTTP upgrade.
Auto Upgrade
Choose Yes to enable HTTP upgrade and provisioning.
In “Check for new firmware every” field, enter the number of days to
check the HTTP server for firmware upgrade or configuration.
Subscribe for
MWI:
Default is NO. When set to “Yes” a SUBSCRIBE for Message Waiting
Indication will be sent periodically.
Offhook
Auto-Dial
This parameter allows users to configure a User ID or extension number
to be automatically dialed upon offhook. Please note that only the user
part of a SIP address needs to be entered here. The HandyTone ATA
will automatically append the “@” and the host portion of the
corresponding SIP address.
Send Flash Event This parameter allows users to control whether to send an SIP NOTIFY
message indicating the Flash event, or just to switch to the voice
channel when users press the Flash key.
FXS Impedance
Selects the impedance of the analog telephone connected to the Phone
port.

6.3 Configuration through a Central Server
Grandstream HandyTone ATAs can be automatically configured from a central provisioning
system.
When HandyTone ATA boot up, it will send TFTP or HTTP request to download configuration
files, there are two configuration files, one is “cfg.txt” and the other is “cfg000b82xxxxxx”,
where “000b82xxxxxx” is the MAC address of the HandyTone ATA. For more information
regarding configuration file format, please refer to the related Grandstream documentation.
The configuration file can be downloaded via TFTP or HTTP from the central server. A
service provider or an enterprise with large deployment of HandyTone ATAs can easily
manage the configuration and service provisioning of individual devices remotely and
automatically from a central server. GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System)
uses enhanced (NAT friendly) TFTP or HTTP (thus no NAT issues) and other communication
protocols to communicate with each individual HandyTone ATA for firmware upgrade, remote
reboot, etc.
Grandstream provides a licensed provisioning system called GAPS that can be used to
support automated configuration of HandyTone ATA. To enable this feature on the
HandyTone ATA, a user just needs to enter the IP address of the GAPS server in the TFTP
server field of the configuration screen, or enter the HTTP provisioning Server URL in the
HTTP Upgrade Server field. Then reboot the HandyTone ATA.
For details on how GAPS works, please refer to the documentation of GAPS product.

7 Software Upgrade
7.1 Upgrade through HTTP
To upgrade software, HandyTone-488 can be configured with an HTTP server where the new
code image file is located. For example, following URL in the HTTP Upgrade Server:
Where firmware.mycompany.com is the FQDN of the HTTP server, “:6688” is the TCP port
the HTTP server listening to, “/Grandstream/1.0.0.4” is the RELATIVE directory to the root dir
in HTTP server. Thus, you can put different firmware into different directory as well.
Note: To enable HTTP firmware upgrade, “Auto Upgrade” field has to be set to Yes. In
addition, the ATA will check the HTTP server in the number of days that is defined in “Check
for new firmware every” field.
7.2 Upgrade through TFTP
To upgrade software, HandyTone-488 can be configured with a TFTP server where the new
code image is located. The TFTP upgrade can work in either static IP or DHCP mode using
private or public IP address. It is recommended to set the TFTP server address in either a
public IP address or on the same LAN with the HandyTone-488.
There are two ways to set up the TFTP server to upgrade the firmware, namely through voice
menu prompt or via the HandyTone-488’s Web configuration interface. To configure the
TFTP server via voice prompt, follow section 5.1 with option 06, once set up the TFTP IP
address, power cycle the ATA, the firmware will be fetched once the ATA boots up.
To configure the TFTP server via the Web configuration interface, open up your browser to
point at the IP address of the HandyTone-488. Input the admin password to enter the
configuration screen. From there, enter the TFTP server address in the designated field
towards the bottom of the configuration screen.
Once the TFTP server is configured, power cycle the HandyTone-488.
TFTP checking is only performed during the initial power up. If the configured TFTP server is
found and a new code image is available, the HandyTone-488 will attempt to retrieve the new
image files by downloading them into the HandyTone-488’s SRAM. During this stage, the
HandyTone-488’s LED will blink until the checking/downloading process is completed. Upon
verification of checksum, the new code image will then be saved into the Flash. If TFTP fails
for any reason (e.g., TFTP server is not responding, there are no code image files available
for upgrade, or checksum test fails, etc), the HandyTone-488will stop the TFTP process and
simply boot using the existing code image in the flash.
TFTP process may take as long as 1 to 2 minutes over the Internet, or just 20+ seconds if it is
performed on a LAN. Users are recommended to conduct TFTP upgrade in a controlled LAN

environment if possible. For those who do not have a local TFTP server, Grandstream
provides a NAT-friendly TFTP server on the public Internet for firmware upgrade. Please
check the Service or Support section of Grandstream’s Web site to obtain this TFTP server’s
IP address.
