How to subscribe the M166.
Prior to using the M166, it must be subscribed. As the M166 does not have an
Alphanumeric user interface it must be subscribed using the Handset Configurator
and a dedicated USB_Adaptor-to-headset cable.
Please note that it is a dedicated cable. Don’t try to use any other similar looking
other cable.
This cable is also a converter from USB to mini jack. This means that you must
install the correct drivers. You can download the driver from the NEC BusinessNet
DECT Handset Configurator menu items
New menu items has been added to the DECT Handset Configurator. These need
some explanation. You will find it in Chapter 4 Changing M166 Settings.
Backward Compatibility mode
See Chapter 6 Backward Compatibility Mode
How to setup Tyco and Elpas
For accurate location detection, a locator module can be installed in the M166.
Together with beacons, location can be detected. This is described in Chapter 7
This is the standard M166. It does not offer location detection by means of Tyco
beacons.
The rear side you see the difference between the two. The M166C does not offer a
cover plate that can be removed for mounting the DLA card.
M166CL
The M166CL offers a cover plate that can be removed to install the DLA card for
Location detection. This card picks up signals from Tyco location beacons.
For specific information about the M166CL, consult chapter 7 Tyco/Elpas Integration.
Before you start subscribing the M166, please configure the handset configurator with
required settings for the M166. This serves as a template. If you different groups of M166
users, needing different settings, you must repeat this procedure after subscribing a group
of handsets.
Note: This procedure is used for setting up a template. However, it also gives
information about settings, which can be used for making changes.

The DECT Handset configurator allows you to change settings in the M166. Below, the
Settings Menu.
The following options are available:
Handset name
Here you can enter the handset name. This name will be visible in the DECT
Manager window.
Handset Number
This is the extension number of the M166. Please note that this umber must be the
same as the subscription number. If not the same, writing to the handset will fail.
When in a call, the M166 is always in Loud speaking mode. Here you can select the
Loud speaker volume.
Emergency Call Interrupt Mode.
The Emergency Call Interrupt mode, allows room monitoring when an alarm is active
on the M166. So, when an alarm is active and you want to listen in into the room,
you can call the M166. When the ECI mode is activated, the M166 will not ring, but it
will auto answer the call silently. You can select whether you want to have the
Vibrator on or off,
So, basically, it is a Profile setting that overrides the normal M166 settings
(temporarily). So it is used to override the normal settings temporarily, in case of
emergency.
The following settings are available.
1. Disabled.
2. Vibrate On,
3. Vibrate off
If alarm button was not pressed, incoming call is processed with normal ring sound
and vibrator settings.
Silent Charging
There are three options:
- Disabled
The M166 remains fully operational when in charger.
- Silent
The M166 remains fully operational in charger, however, it will not ring.
- Disconnect.
The M166 will detach from the system, and will report itself absent. The M166 is
not reachable anymore.
Power off Button Time out
The time to keep the power button depressed to power off the M166.
Please note that the selection options are 5, 10, 15 seconds. In real life, the time can
be a few seconds longer.
Headset Mode
Two options: “Speaker disabled” or “Speaker enabled”.
This is self-explaining
Determine whether Auto Answer is required or net, and if so, select the number of
rings before the auto answer is activated.
Auto Answer Number
When receiving an incoming call from this particular number, the call will be
answered automatically after approximately one ring no matter how many rings have
been selected in the previous setting. Even when automatic answer is disabled in the
previous setting, still a call from the predefined extension will be automatically
answered.
Auto-Answer Internal
When enabled, internal calls will always be answered automatically, and calls from
external will ring and not be automatically answered.
Auto Answer Message
When enabled, the M166 will automatically answer a message that instructs to set
up a call automatically, using commands <<ANxxxx>> or <<AFxxxx>> in the
message. The M166 is instructed to setup a voice call to the number xxxx. The M166
gives first a short, low volume indication, unless the ringer is muted. Please note
that this functionally depends on conditions. The functionality and conditions are
explained in the IP DECT Advanced DATA Manual, section “Conditional Special
Message Strings” in chapter Special Messages/Features to Handsets.
Silent Answer Message
When enabled, the M166 is instructed to setup a voice call to the number xxxx in a
command <<ASxxxx>> or <<ALxxxx>> in the message. The M166 does not give an
audible indication.
Please note that this functionally depends on conditions. The functionality and
conditions are explained in the IP DECT Advanced DATA Manual, section
“Conditional Special Message Strings” in chapter Special Messages/Features to
Handsets.
