Hi
I was just wondering if there is any way to get rid of the default authorized 911 entry when you enable the phone lock feature?
Current software version :
Currently config is:
<phoneLock/>
<phoneLock.enabled phoneLock.enabled="1" />
<phoneLock.authorized.1.description phoneLock.authorized.1.description="Emergency Calls" />
<phoneLock.authorized.1.value phoneLock.authorized.1.value="999" />
<phoneLock/>
However when placed in lock mode>new call there are 2 options:
1 Emergency (911)
2 Emergency Calls (999)
I can see that number 2 is what I have specified however where does 911 come from and how can I remove it?
Many thanks
Dave

Hello Dave,
to my knowledge this is working as designed.
The 911 is a hard coded Value for the USA and other countries.

I found I was able to replace the default 911 handling with Australia's (000) with the following:
<dialplan dialplan.1.e911dialmask="112;106" dialplan.1.e911dialstring="000" dialplan.routing.emergency.1.value="000" />
I can now dial a three-digit extension of 911 without it being classed as an Emergency call, and when the phone's locked, 000 is now the top option, without me needing to add it to the phoneLock.authorized list.
(FYI, this is on a 410 and a 500 running 5.0.1.5669 and registered to Lync 2013).

I am having the same issue-
The phone is in a nursing home and patience with Dementia keep calling 911- I setup Phonelock but because of the authorized emergency number.......
Hello SamF,
did you try the approach as replied by the community member prior to your post?
If this does not work for you I can only ask you to please raise this via your Polycom reseller as a feature request via a Polycom sales engineer and provide a business proposal why this would be required.
Above is needed in order to track this internally within Polycom and evaluate the request and prioritize this based on the feasibility and the general impact on other features.

----------------I did end up using the above method.
I send calls to a random number that plays a message. "In order to actually call emergency they need to unlock the phone and dial 911".
I guess I will put the request in to my reseller.

I just want to clarify you used something like:
<dialplan dialplan.1.e911dialmask="911" dialplan.1.e911dialstring="redirected number" dialplan.routing.emergency.1.value="whatever you want to displayin the auth list" />
thanks
