IMPORTING AND EXPORTING CONTACTS
You can import contacts from a comma separated values (CSV) file. One way of creating a 
CSV file is using Microsoft Excel and saving the file in CSV format. 
Enter the names of the contacts in the first column and their phone numbers or URIs in 
the second. Do not use hyphens or spaces in the number. Note that Excel ignores zeros at 
the beginning of numbers. The cells must therefore be formatted as text. 

  It is normally possible to export contact books stored in your PC in CSV format. 

 The way the number can be written may depend on the SIP PBX being used, but 

normally you can use:
• Complete phone number, including country code
• Phone number, including area code
• Local phone number only
• Internal speed dial number (with company’s own PBX)
• URI, e.g. 

sip:user@company.com

• URI with IP address, e.g. 

sip:10.10.1.100 (within a local network)
