About this task
Enter the provisioning server address if the phone prompts, for example, when you connect to the

Before you begin
Obtain the provisioning server address from the system administrator.
Procedure
1. When you boot the phone for the first time, the Auto Provisioning screen displays Do you
want to activate Auto Provisioning now?, press one of the following:
• Yes: To connect to the Device Enrollment Services server to obtain the provisioning
server address and ignore the provisioning server address from the DHCP.
• No: To obtain the provisioning server address from the DHCP server.
In case of a time out, and the DHCP does not provide the provisioning server address, the
phone selects Yes.
If the connection to Device Enrollment Services is successful, and the phone receives the
provisioning server address, the phone continues to boot and not prompt you for the
provisioning server address.
If the connection to Device Enrollment Services is successful, and the phone does not
receive the provisioning server address from Device Enrollment Services, the phone
prompts you for a Numeric Enrollment code. Contact your administrator for a numeric
enrollment code. When you enter the valid numeric enrollment code, the phone continues
to boot and not prompt you for the provisioning server address.
If you do not have a numeric enrollment code, press Cancel. The phone continues to boot
using the DHCP.
The phone displays the Starting message. If the phone does not receive the
provisioning server address from the Device Enrollment Services or the DHCP server, the
phone displays the Enter provisioning details screen.

Text input
You can use the dial pad or the text input soft keys to edit and enter text in the text input fields of
the phone.
Input field
Depending on the application and context, a text input field is a text box with a label. The user
interface displays labels on the left side of the text box or in the line preceding the text box. An
input field can be blank or display a current value that can be modified. The user interface displays
input cursors on the right side of the current value or, if the input field is blank, on the left side of
the text box.
Hint text
Depending on the application and context, a text box contains hint text. The user interface
displays hint text on the left side of the text box in grey, italic font. The interface replaces the hint
text with the actual text that you enter. The interface displays the hint text again when you clear
the entered text. The interface does not display the hint text if the field contains a value.
Text truncation
When the space in the input area cannot display the full current value, the user interface truncates
the text. The interface truncates the text from the left side and displays a blank space with a cursor
on the right side of the input field for a new entry. When you enter a new character, the interface
truncates the existing character from the left side of the display.
Active language text direction
When the text direction of the active language is right-to-left, the text entry rules are reversed. The
user interface:
• Displays the hint text on the right side of the text box.
• Displays the input cursor on the left side of the current character or, if the input field is blank,
on the right side.
• Displays the new character on the left side of the current character.
• Deletes the character on the right side of the cursor when you press Backspace.

Line keys
The line keys are context-sensitive. When you press a line key:
• In full-width lists, the user interface selects the corresponding line or the object.
• In half-width lists, the interface selects the list item adjacent to the key.
• In page scroll mode and then scroll on to the next or previous page, the selected item
remains highlighted.
Input line
The following actions take place when you press the line key against the input lines.
• Selects the corresponding line for the line which accepts user input.
• Displays the cursor after the last character of the existing content if the line is an input line. If
an input line is selected, the interface performs no action even if the cursor is in the middle of
the line.
• Performs the action of the first soft key for the line which does not accept user input even if
the line is already selected.
For example, when you press a line key in Contacts, the interface initiates a call to the
contact because the first soft key represents the Call key.
