2. Getting Started
This section describes how to prepare your iOS device for the Media5-fone application.
2.1 Configuring VoIP Network Service
You must obtain a VoIP network service configuration prior to using the Media5-fone application. Please ask your IT
department or SIP service provider for the SIP Server configuration, user name and password. Note that the Media5-fone
has a preconfigured list of SIP providers.
2.2 Configuring Wi-Fi Access Points
The Media5-fone requires the availability of a Wi-Fi network to work properly. Therefore, you need to create one or more
proper Wi-Fi access points.
Note
On the iPhone telephone, when no configured access points are available, the 3G/4G network of the telephony provider
will be used if the applications settings allow it.
To configure a Wi-Fi access point (see your iOS device user guide for more information):
1) Access the Settings application from the iOS devices home screen.
2) Tap the Wi-Fi option.
3) Tap the access point to use and enter the password if prompted to.
Figure 1: Accessing the Wi-Fi Settings

Users Guide Media5-fone Getting Started
SIP Softphone Application 11
2.3 First Start-Up of the Media5-fone
Note:
If you are upgrading your Media5-fone application, please skip to the next section. The current section details the first
start up of the Media5-fone for installations that are not updates.
This version of the Media5-fone introduces a Configuration Wizard which will guide you through the setup of the
application in order to help you make free calls fast!
To start the application, look for the Media5-fone application on the home screen, then tap on it as illustrated in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Home Screen

Once the application is initialized, it detects that it is the first time it starts and displays the screen depicted in Figure 3.
When you are ready to start the configuration process, tap the Start button at the top-right corner.
Figure 3: Configuration Wizard

The first step is to decide what type of account you will use. You have the choice between:
a manually defined account
one of the multiple pre-configured IP PBXs and SIP Application Servers accounts.
Users Guide Media5-fone Getting Started
SIP Softphone Application 12
one of the multiple pre-configured Internet Telephony Service Providers accounts.
Note:
The Media5-fone DOES NOT create accounts automatically with any provider. YOU will need to apply for a service
contract with the provider you select to use. Media5 Corporation is not affiliated with any of the providers listed in the
configuration wizard. The list is merely a convenience to ease the application's setup. Providers that wish to be listed
here should contact Media5s Technical Assistance Center.
If you already own a SIP account on your companys VoIP server, you do not need any additional SIP provider account.
Please contact your IT department to help you configuring your SIP account into the Media5-fone.
Figure 4: New SIP Account

Once you have selected your actual SIP provider, tap it. The Media5-fone requests your credentials (user name and
password) and applies predefined configuration's values that are known to work with the selected SIP provider. Should
you need to change any settings for your account, you will be able to do so once the configuration wizard is finished.
If your SIP provider is not listed or you prefer to manually configure your account, tap on the Define manually entry at
the top of the list. Refer to Creating an Account for details on each and every account parameters that are customizable
in this mode.
Note:
Media5 Corporation is interested in hearing from you should your provider be unlisted. Media5 would like to get the most
complete list of SIP providers around the world. Should you encounter any issue with a pre-configured provider account
or if your provider is not listed, please contact our Technical Assistance Center.
No matter if you used a pre-configured or manually defined account, once you have entered all required information, tap
the Done button and you will be all set.

If you upgraded the application from a very old version, be advised that the settings are now inside the application and no
longer in the system's settings application. However, your existing settings will be transferred and kept across the
update. Please access the settings entry in the More tab to make sure all settings have properly transferred.

4. Using the Media5-fone
The following sections describe how to use the Media5-fone application on a daily basis.
4.1 Receiving a Call
Once the Media5-fone has been started and the dial button is green, it is ready to receive calls. When an incoming call
arrives, the window depicted in Figure 12 appears. This window indicates the callers ID (at the top) and callers picture if
any is set in the contacts. If the contact matching the incoming call has no picture, none is displayed.
This window proposes to Decline or Accept the incoming call.
Figure 12: Incoming Call Prompt

4.1.1 Declining a Call
When you decide to decline an incoming call, you are taken back to the last displayed screen. Usually, on a corporate
SIP network, this will forward the incoming call to your voicemail.
Users Guide Media5-fone Using the Media5-fone
SIP Softphone Application 19
4.1.2 Accepting a Call
When you decide to accept the incoming call and the call is fully established, the status changes to indicate that a VoIP
call is in progress. The in-call feature buttons are displayed and you can terminate the call by tapping the End Call
button.
Figure 13: Accepting a Call

4.1.3 In Call Network Quality Feedback
The In Call Quality Feedback indicates the quality of your call. It also displays the codec currently used, as well as
whether or not this codec is HD. Please note that you can tap the quality bars and a message will be displayed.
Figure 14: In Call Quality Feedback

Users Guide Media5-fone Using the Media5-fone
SIP Softphone Application 20
4.2 Placing a Call
The Media5-fone offers four ways of performing a VoIP call. You can:
Manually dial a number by using the dial pad;
Use the favorites feature;
Select a contact from your contact list or
Select an entry from the Recents list.
4.2.1 Dialing a Number
Manually dialing a number consists of tapping on the numbers of the dial pad and tapping the Call button to call the
number (see Figure 15).
Figure 15: Manual Number Dialling

Once the Call button has been tapped, a status window appears and indicates the call progression. You can end the call
by tapping the End Call button.
Figure 16: Call Progression

SIP Softphone Application 21
4.2.2 Adding a New Contact
You can add the number you just dialed as a new contact by tapping the Add Contact button.
Figure 17: Add Contact Button

The Info screen displays.
Figure 18: Info Screen

You have the choice to create a new contact with the number dialed or add it to an existing contact.
The Media5-fone contacts view allows inline editing of the contacts. This works exactly as in the iOS devices native
Contacts application. Refer to the iOS device documentation for details on contact edition.

Users Guide Media5-fone Using the Media5-fone
SIP Softphone Application 22
4.2.3 Calling Using the Favorites Feature
To make a call by using the Favorites feature, hold the corresponding keypad button for 1 or more seconds and it will
automatically call the favorite entry associated with that button.
The keypad numbers 2 to 0 as well as the * and # characters can be used for the favorites feature. Number 1 is reserved
for voicemail dialing. It will automatically call your voicemail if your number is configured (see Voicemail for more details).
The Voicemail number must be configured see the VM Number parameter in section Creating an Account.
The Favorites screen icons map to the keypad buttons. In the example below, keypad buttons 1, 5, *, and # are
associated with Favorites because their corresponding Favorites location actually has a Favorite defined. The numbers in
red correspond to the keypad characters. When you add a Favorite, it is automatically mapped to the corresponding
keypad character.
You can also tap the relevant picture in the Favorites screen and the Media5-fone automatically calls this Favorite.

4.2.7 Call Waiting
Note:
In Media5-fone free edition, this feature is available only once the telephony pack feature has been purchased.
The Media5-fone supports Call Waiting. If you are already in a call and someone calls you, the following action popup will
display.
Figure 23: Call Waiting Options

It indicates who is calling and offers you three options:
Decline rejects the second call altogether and the current call continues.
Hold + Accept holds the current call and connects the second. The Hold button will be modified to toggle
between calls. You can also tap on the call status line for the call to activate, much like in the native Phone
application of the iPhone.
End Call + Accept terminates the current call and connects the second one. This effectively replaces the
current call with the new one.
You can also define whether or not the call waiting feature is enabled. See Settings Definition for more details.

Table 2 SIP Account Parameters
Parameter Description
Account
Title Name of the account.
Username User name for your account. This is mandatory.
Password Password used for authentication.
Servers SIP Server / Domain / Realm
Address SIP servers IP address or domain name. This is mandatory. E.g.
sip.myprovider.com.
Port SIP servers port number. The default value is 5060.
Servers Outbound Proxy (optional)
Enable Proxy Defines whether or not the proxy server is enabled.
Address Proxy servers IP address or FQDN.
Port Proxy servers port number.
Remove Route Header When this option is enabled, the requests are sent directly to the proxy
without adding a route header. This fixes interoperability issues with some
VoIP providers. Note that this bypasses the standard routing as specified by
the SIP protocol.
Servers Transport
SIP Transport Defines the transport protocol to use when sending and receiving SIP
messages. You have the following choices:
UDP
TCP
TLS
Note that only TLS is a secured transport protocol. When selecting TLS, the
application automatically switches to the SRTP protocol and uses the SDES
key management protocol.
Enable SRTP This parameter allows you to define whether to disable SRTP or enable it
with SDES. Please note that setting the SIP Transport parameter to TLS
automatically enables SRTP, while setting it to TCP or UDP automatically
disables it.
Note: If you enable SRTP and you receive a call that is not encrypted with
SRTP, a message pops up asking you whether or not you want to accept the
call, even though this would result in a non-secured communication.
TCP/TLS Battery
Optimization
This feature is available if you have selected TCP or TLS as SIP Transport. It
allows you to improve your iOS devices battery lifetime. To use this feature,
you must also do the following:
Raise the Registration timer value to 650 seconds or more.
Users Guide Media5-fone Additional Settings (More View)
SIP Softphone Application 39
Parameter Description
Disable the Wi-Fi and 3G Keep Alives or lengthen the
available intervals.
See Battery Optimization for more details.
Add transport=tcp This feature is available if you have selected TCP as SIP Transport. When
set to On, the Media5-fone will send SIP messages with the transport
parameter in the Contact header of REGISTERs and INVITEs.set to the TCP
transport type. This parameter is for advanced users only.
Force SIP Scheme This feature is available if you have selected TLS as SIP Transport. It forces
the application to use SIP instead of the secure SIPS. This may be used for
older servers that require unsecure SIP even if the connection uses the
secure TLS transport protocol. This parameter is for advanced users only.
Servers Other
Reg. Timer (sec) The registration timer configures the expiration time to request in SIP
Register requests.
It is possible for a server to reject the proposed registration expiration time if
it is too short, in which case the Media5-fone uses the shortest possible
value supported by the server.
It is possible for a server to accept the registration while reducing the
expiration time, in which case the Media5-fone refreshes the registration
based on the server provided expiration time.
This parameter is for advanced users only.
The Registration timer setting has a significant impact on battery lifetime.
See Battery Optimization for more details.
Use rport Allows the use of the rport SIP VIA header parameter.
Advanced User Account (optional)
Display Name Text to use as your caller ID. This setting may be overridden by your SIP
Provider / Server.
Auth. Name Authentication name to use when authentication is required.
Advanced Voicemail (optional)
Number Phone extension used by the Media5-fone to contact your voice mail box.
Subscribe MWI When set to On, this parameter allows sending a SUBSCRIBE message for
the voicemail. When set to Off, no SUBSCRIBRE message is sent.
Advanced DTMF (optional)
Method Allows the application to send DTMF digits using either:
SIP INFO messages
RTP Named Telephony Events (NTE, RFC 2833/4733)
RTP in-band audio.
NTE Payload If you have selected the RFC 2833/4733 DTMF Method, this is the SDP
payload (the number that identifies packets as being RFC 2833/4733
DTMFs). This number must be between 96 and 125. Do not use the numbers
100 to 103 because they are used as follows:
100: Enhanced G.711 ulaw
101: Enhanced G.711 alaw
102: iLBC
Users Guide Media5-fone Additional Settings (More View)
SIP Softphone Application 40
Parameter Description
103: iSAC
The default value is 125.
Advanced Media Options
Codecs Wi-Fi List of active and inactive Codecs available for Wi-Fi calls in order of
preference. See Codec Settings for more details.
Codecs 3G List of active and inactive Codecs available for 3G calls in order of
preference. See Codec Settings for more details.
iLBC mode 20 Defines whether or not iLBC mode 20 is enabled.
The iLBC codec has two modes (30 [default] and 20). The mode specifies
how much of audio data is sent in each RTP packet. Mode 30 uses 30 ms
and 20, 20 ms. If you get bad audio with iLBC, try activating this parameter
and see if it makes a difference.
G.729 VAD Defines whether or not the G.729 VAD (Voice Activity Detection) feature is
enabled. This feature is available only if you have purchased the G.729
Codec. See Feature Purchase View for more details.
sendrecv on resume This is an interoperability parameter used in hold/unhold scenarios with some
servers that do not support receiving recvonly. This parameter is for
advanced users only.
Advanced Dial Rules
Dial + as Replaces the + with the specified character (must leave empty to remove the
+). See Dial Rules Examples.
Prefix to remove Removes the specified prefix.
Prefix to add Inserts the specified prefix at the beginning of the string.
Advanced Network Options
Local SIP Ports Start Allows you to specify the port range used to receive SIP packets.
If you leave the fields empty, the Media5-fone uses a default range of 5060
to 5070.
Local SIP Ports End
RTP ports Start Allow you to specify the port range to use for incoming RTP streams.
The port selection starts at "RTP ports Start" and stops at "RTP ports End"
minus "RTP ports Start" divided in 2. This is because the RTCP port is
automatically allocated as being RTP Port + 1.
Therefore, the NAT/Firewall configuration needs to take this into account and
make sure to include RTP ports End + 1 as an open port.
The range must be sufficient to cover a possibility of 4 simultaneous and
instantaneous RTP streams. This allows all call scenarios (2
nd
call, call
waiting, transfer, and conference) to work properly.
The Media5-fone does not verify whether or not the range is of sufficient
length. However, some call scenarios will not work if the range is not long
enough.
The Media5-fone does verify if the end port is less than the start port.
If the fields are left empty, the Media5-fone uses a default range of 10000 to
10050.

Parameter Description
Keep Alive The Keep Alive mechanism sends messages periodically to the server to
ensure that it can still be reached. You can enable or disable the following
Keep Alive mechanisms:
Wi-Fi Keep Alive
3G Keep Alive
You can also set the interval, in seconds, at which Keep Alive requests are
sent to verify the server status. You can set 4 different values:
UDP Wi-Fi Interval
UDP 3G Interval
TCP/TLS Wi-Fi Interval
TCP/TLS 3G Interval
The Keep Alive settings have a significant impact on battery lifetime. See
Battery Optimization for more details.
5.1.4 Battery Optimization
The battery lifetime depends on the applications use. When using a Wi-Fi connection, the more data the iOS device
sends and receives, the more the battery is drained. To preserve the battery, you must try to minimize the data sent and
received.
The following parameters have a significant impact on battery lifetime:
Registration timer: The lower the registration value, the more it drains the battery.
Keep Alive settings
For improved battery lifetime, do the following:
Raise the Registration timer value to 650 seconds or more.
Disable the Wi-Fi and 3G Keep Alives or lengthen the available intervals. For instance, if you are located in
an office and the server is in the same location, you probably do not need the Keep Alive feature because
there is no NAT/firewall between your iOS device and the server.
Put the TCP/TLS Battery Optimization parameter to On.
If you are not expecting VoIP calls, disable the Run in Background feature to terminate the application in
background.
If possible, ask your IT department and/or provider to reduce the number of automated messages that are
sent by the server or PBX to the application. This will avoid depleting the battery.
Please refer to your IT department and/or provider to get optimal values.
5.1.4.1 TCP/TLS Battery Optimization Limitations
The TCP/TLS Battery Optimization feature effectively puts the application in a standby state to conserve the battery. It
awakens the application from time to time to register it to the server. The following are the iOS (Apple Mobile Operating
System) limitations to using the TCP/TLS Battery Optimization feature:
It only applies when the Keep Alive is disabled and the Registration Timer (Reg. Timer (sec) parameter is 650
seconds or more.
Connectivity changes while in background will prevent reception of SIP calls. For instance, if you change Wi-
Fi network zone, go from a Wi-Fi network to 3G coverage, or go from 3G coverage to a Wi-Fi network, the
application cannot register to the server in the new zone because it is suspended. You thus cannot receive
SIP calls.

5.1.5 Dial Rules Examples
Example 1:
John Doe tries to call the number +18198298749 from his contacts. John Doe is logged on his companys
VoIP server. His company asks the user to dial the digit "9" to access external numbers (a trunk), and also
requires that the user removes the digit "1". In addition, the server does not support the digit "+".
Number dialed: +18198298749
Dial + as: (empty, remove +)
Prefix to remove: 1
Prefix to Append: 9
Number after rules: 98198298749
Example 2:
John Doe is now on a business trip to the United States and Europe and has connected his Media5-fone to
any private US VoIP provider.
On the providers networks, the number +18198298749 is valid and will be routed without modifications by
the user. So John Doe selects the number from his contacts.
Number dialed: +18198298749
Dial + as: +
Prefix to remove:
Prefix to Append:
Number after rules: +18198298749
5.1.6 Codec Settings
The Accounts view of the Wi-Fi and 3G Codecs lists the Active Codecs and the Inactive Codecs. Furthermore, the
Active Codecs lists the Codecs in their preferred order. The preferred Codec is the Codec you want to favour during
negotiation. The order in which they are listed is thus important.
To change the order of Codecs, tap the icon on the right of one Codec and drag it to the proper location. Repeat the
process until the list is properly ordered.
To render a Codec inactive, tap the icon on the right of one Codec and drag it to the Inactive Codecs section.

8. Bluetooth and External Speaker
The out-of-call default audio output for Media5-fone is the iOS devices loudspeaker, except when music is playing.
When background music is detected, the Media5-fone sets its default audio output to the private speaker (iOS device
Handset / Wired Headset / Blue tooth earpiece). The Media5-fone currently has no way of detecting whether or not the
current music output is the loudspeaker. Furthermore, changing the audio output from the iPod controls system
dialog will not work. The Media5-fone will override the selected route.
This can be considered as a known issue and we are working on a way to improve this behaviour. In the meantime,
please use your wired headset when listening to background music.
