The design of your wirele s s telephone complies with the latest Institute of Elec trical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF energy.

CAUTION:

The MDW 9040 handset is a radio transceiver device. It is recommended that the handset not be placed within 6 inches of a pacemaker.

It is recommended that standard acceptance test procedures be followed prior to operating t his e quip ment in pr oxim ity of lif e-supp ort equi pment .Until more i s known, the FDA suggests that people with pacemakers may want to take some simple precautions when using or carrying digital wireless telephone s. The y sh ould ensure that th e re is ample dist an ce betw ee n the digital wireless tele p h on e and the pacemaker—by not placing the phone next to t he pacemaker impl ant (for example, in a shirt or a coa t pocke t direc tly ove r th e pacemake r impla nt) when the p hone is on and ready to rec eive a call and by holding it to the ear opp os ite the side of the body where the pacemaker is implanted when using the phone. Th ey s hould consult their physicians or medi cal de vice manu facture rs to de termine i f addi tional precau tions are necessary.

The operation of inadequately shielded medical devices may be adversely affected when a portable wireless tele phone is operat ing in cl ose pro ximit y. Use of an optiona l headset would solve this problem.

About the MDW 9040 Pocket Phone

1 Introduction

The MDW 9040 Pocket Phone has been designed to wor k with Lucent Technologies communi cations systems including PARTNER

The MDW 9040 is different from its predecessors in several different ways:

, MERLIN®, MERLIN MAGIX™ and DEFINITY® switches).

IMPORTANT NOTE: The MDW 9040 is NOT backward com p atib le with other

TransTalk systems; that is, it CANNOT be added to existing TransTalk systems or used in the same coverage area as the MDW 9000, MDW 9010, MDW 9030, or MDW 9031.

•

The base station to which the handset is connected is called a Dual-Radio Module (o r D RM) because eac h module can support two handset s

simultaneously.

•

The DRM and the handset work toget her without a carrier backplane unit. The DRM itself can be placed on a flat surface such as a shelf or table or mounted on a wall.

•

In the past, one ba se station was shipped from the factory together with a handset with the same serial code and registration number. Beginning with the MDW 9040, the DRM and the handset are packaged se para tely, and the customer will need to regist er ea ch hand set with the DRM with which it will communic at e. Again, each DRM can communicate with two handsets.

Privacy Information

The MDW 9040 Pocket Phone is designed to protect the privacy and security of your voice conversation. The phone uses continuously changing radio frequencies and digital encoding techniques to make it impossible for eavesdropping to occur through the use of commercially available analog radio scanners.

Where Can You Use Your Pocket Phone?

The MDW 9040 Pocket Phone can be used in most typical office buildi ngs, warehouses, malls, and even outdoor areas such as loading docks. The location of the DRM greatly aff ects the performance of the MDW 9040. Read the “Positioning the DRM” section in Chapter 2 to determine the best place to install the DRM. Repeat the tests several times with the DRM positioned in a different location each time. To perform the te sts, all you need is an electrical outlet for the DRM and a charged battery pack in the handset.

2 Installing and Registering the

MDW 9040 Pocket Phone

Overview

There ar e three main steps for installing your MDW 9040:

Connecting the Dual-Radio Module (DRM) to the switch

(Refer to th e inf ormation below in the sect ion titled, “Ins tallation Procedures for the DRM.”)

Registering each handset to the appropriate DRM

(Refer to th e inf ormation in the se ction titled, “Setting Up and Re gistering th e Handset” on page 13.)

Checking button mapping to coincide with the communications system to which the MDW 9040 is conn ec t ed

(Refer to the information in the section titled, “Mapping the MDW 9040 to the Correct Communications System” on page 16.)

IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE YOU BEGIN INSTALLATION:

* Only one handset can be registered at a time.

* There are two types of DRMs. Before yo u begin the installation procedures, be certain

that you have the correc t DRM. For PARTNER a nd MER L I N, there is an ETR - a nd

-compatible DRM (PEC2: 3204-DRE); for the MERLIN MAGIX and the DEFINITY

ATL 2-wire DCP port card, there is a DCP- and TDL-compatible DRM (PEC

See the table on the next page for more in formation on the two types of DRMs.

The ATL-interface does NOT support the DEFINITY Hybrid port card.

Some Lucent Technologies equipment can be ordered with a Price Element Code (PEC).

For more informa t io n o n or d er ing addition a l or rep la ce ment equi pment, see C ha p te r 4.

: 3204-DRD).

The DRM can be wall-mounted using these keyholes on the back of the DRM (labeled as 1 in Figure 1). For procedures on wall-mounting the DRM, see the instr u ct io ns on pag e 10 .

The external ant en n a (label ed 2) and the internal diversity antenna (labeled 3) are used to enhance signal strength for the MDW 9040.

The DRM has two LEDs on its side, the Power LED and the Control LED: The green Power LED (labeled 4) goes on steady to indicate that the DRM is

receiving powe r and flashes to indicat e that the handset connected to Line 1 is in Registration Mode.

The gree n Control LED (la bel ed 5) goe s on ste ady to indi cate tha t this DRM cont rols other DRM(s) to which it is connected and flashes to indicate that the handset connected to Line 2 is in Registration Mode.

The circuitry of each DRM allows it to interface with two switch ports for communications, signaling, and power. It does this by using the following connections:

Positioning a DRM

The DRMs for each zone of communication can be placed on a flat surface such as a desk or shelf OR mounted on the wall. Use the following rules for positioning a DRM in your system.

The range depends on your particular operating environment. For indoor use, walls between the handset and the radio module will reduce the phone’s range. Avoid con centrations of structural metal, such as steel and aluminum, and reinforced concrete.

General Positioning Rules

Installation Procedures for the DRM Installing and Registering the MDW 9040 Pocket Phone

•

When wall-mounting the DRM, place the DRM high on the wall for optimum voice quali ty and range. Allow 6–12 inches (15.2–30.5 cm) of space be tween the top of the antenna on the radio modules and the ceiling.

•

DO NOT install the DRM above a drop or suspended ceiling.

•

Do not locate the DRM within 3 feet (.9 m) of any large metal object, and be sure no metal objects are in the line of sight to the operating area of the handset.

•

Do not locate the DRM within 6 feet (1.8 m) – 10 feet (3 m) of equipment with microprocessors, such as answering machines, personal computers, and fax machines; control units, communications system switches, or other phones (especially speakerphones); competing radio devices such as wireless bar-code scanners; electromagneti c equipment such as electric motors; or electrical main power feeds, junction boxes, circuit-breaker panels , fuse boxes, or 220-volt power lines.

•

Be sure the DRM does not share the same power line as equipment with microprocessors such as answering machines, personal computers, and fax mach in es or electr o m ag n e tic equipm ent such as el ec tr i c m o t or s.

•

Install a single DRM within 3 feet (0.9 m) of either side of, and within 6 to 8 feet (1.8 to 2.4 m) above, a properly grounded, 3-prong electrical outlet that is not controlled by an ON/OFF switch.

•

You can install a single DRM in a remote location using a telephone line cord to connect the radio module to the communications system switch/control unit.

IROBs and an auxiliary power supply must be used for out-of-building installations.

Single-Zone and Dual-Zone Configuration

Multiple DRM units can be installed and configured for single- or dual-zone operation.

•

In a single-zone configuration, all DRMs provide communication to the same area or zone.

•

In a dual-zone configuration, two sets of DRMs share handsets that can be operated in tw o different are as. Thi s type of opera tio n require s two connec tio ns to the associated switch.

The customer, usual ly the system administrator, is responsible for registering the DRM with its two associa ted handsets. For single-z one operation, each handse t mu st be registered to its associated DRM; each DRM can be regis tered with one or two handsets. For a handset being used in a dual-zone configuration, the handset m ust be registered to a DRM in each of the two zones.

Auxiliary Power and Switch Wiring

The DRM connects to an associated switch through a switch port. Normally, a DRM is powered through one or both of its switch port interfa ce s. However, there may be occasions when an auxi liary power supply may be required.

With 24-gauge wire, the maximum loop length of a DRM connected with a PARTNER or MERLIN system is 1,000 fee t. When the DRM is connected with a MERLIN MAGIX or DEFINITY system, the maximum loop length is 2,000 feet.

MDW Wir eless Pocket Phone Install ation, Troubleshooting, and Use,

503-801-190 Issue 1, May 2000

Installing and Registering the MDW 9040 Pocket Phone Installation Procedures for the DRM

However, with auxiliary power, DRMs connected to these systems will have a maximum loop length of 3,000 feet.

The following auxiliary power supplies are preferred: The

(PEC: 2404-010A; Comcode: 108212952) or the 1151A2 Power Supply with Battery Holdover (PEC: 2404-012A; Comcode: 108212960).

Note:

If you are using an auxiliary po wer supply, the MD W 9040 Pocket Phone has a built-in testing feature that you can use before final ins tallation to help determine proper placement of the radio module. To perform the tests, all you need is an el ectrical ou t le t f o r th e DR M an d a charged battery pack in the handset (you do not need a communications system switch or contro l unit). The tests are described in “Wire less Te st Mode” in Cha p te r 3 .

If your installation requires customized wiring, the wiring technician should match the Pin numbers with the switch interfaces as shown in the following table.

Follow Steps 2 through 4 in Installing the DRM on a Desk or Shelf on the previous pa ge.

Installing Multiple DRMs for Single-Zone Operation

Two or more DRMs must be connected so that their transmissi on and reception signals will be synchronized. In this way, the signals transmitted to or receive d by one DRM will not interfere with another. This s ynchronization can be done in a single-zone or a dual-zone configuration.

Synchronization

When two or more DRMs are connected, one DRM shall be deemed the “Control” DRM since it is administered to control the synchronization for all of the other DRMs to whic h it is connected; that is, when the “Control” DRM is transmitting or recei ving signals, the other DRMs connected to it transmit or receive signals at the same time.

Note:

When connected to a DEFINITY switch, a maximum of 15 DRMs can be connected and successfully syn chronized together; within this configuration there can be a maximum of 30 handsets. When connected to a PARTNER switch, a maximum of 9 DRMS can be connected and synchronized to gether; within t his configuration there can be a maximum of 18 handsets.
