About this guide

This User Guide provides information about the Nortel Mobile Voice Client (MVC) 2050.

The Nortel Mobile Voice Client (MVC) 2050 is designed to add wireless voice communication to the Personal Digital Assistant (PDA).

Nortel Mobile Voice Client 2050 overview

Nortel Mobile Voice Client 2050

overview

Designed to work with your personal digital assistant (PDA) and IP-based

telephone systems, the Nortel Mobile Voice Client (MVC) 2050 provides

real-time voice service over the Internet.

The MVC 2050 supports the following features:

6 programmable line/feature keys 4 soft keys (self-labeled)

12-button dialpad multifield display end user-selectable skins directory capabilities including Personal Directory, Redial List, and

Callers List

To make a call from your PDA using the MVC 2050, you can dial with your dialpad, use a macro, or copy and paste a number from another application. You also can use one of the methods on your PDA System

Input Panel. If you are using Microsoft® Windows Mobile™ 2003 Second Edition or

Microsoft® Windows Mobile™ 5.0 for Pocket PC as your operating

system, the MVC 2050 can also coexist with a secure Virtual Private

Network (VPN) client for connection to a business network.

Nortel Mobile Voice Client 2050 overview

Software dependencies

The following are the MVC 2050 primary software dependencies:

• Windows Mobile 5.0 for Pocket PC

• Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC

• Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition for Pocket PC Note: Windows Mobile 2003 SE AKU1 is not supported (Version

4.21.1088 (Build 14132)). AKU1 has a bug which makes it impossible for third parties to use Settings applets. This is resolved with WM2003 SE AKU2 (Version 4.21.1088 (Build 14260.2.0.5)).

• GIPS NetEQ (included with the MVC 2050 software)

• VPN client (for secure access to a network)

For secure (VPN) access to a network, a VPN client is required.

Supported PDAs

The PDA industry evolves at a rapid pace. Refer to Nortel's web site

(www.nortel.com/mvc2050) to determine the latest PDA models tested

and any known issues. Alternatively, follow the links on www.nortel.com to > Products > Phones,

Clients, and Accessories > IP Phones and Clients > Mobile Voice Client 2050 > Technical Specifications.

For Nortel Technical Support use this link: http://www.nortel.com/support. PDA processor models, speed, and amount of memory vary. To maintain

audio quality, do not overload the processor with intensive tasks while

using the MVC 2050. For example, Nortel does not recommend using

your PDA Internet browser while using the MVC 2050.

MVC 2050 requires that PDAs meet the following mimimum technical

specifications:

• screen resolution of 240x320

Nortel Mobile Voice Client 2050 overview

• CPU speed of 624 MHz

• 64 MB RAM

PDA vendors offer two types of rechargeable battery: standard and

extended-life. The extended-life battery is recommended to provide

longer call duration and increased call volume.

Headsets

A headset is required in order to send and receive telephone calls using the MVC 2050 and your PDA. The headset is an important part of audio quality.

PDAs that support stereo headphones with microphones are recommended.

The Dell specific headset with a button on the wire, when used with the X51v, allows the MVC 2050 to answer an incoming call or release an active call by pressing the button.

Note: Bluetooth and 802.11 b operate on the same frequency band and use the same WLAN hardware on the PDA. Therefore, the use of Bluetooth accessories with MVC 2050 can lead to poor call quality.

Contact your PDA vendor to obtain headset recommendations.

For more information about Automatic Gain Control, see “MVC 2050

configuration” on page 17.

Nortel Mobile Voice Client 2050 overview

MVC 2050 menus and screen features

3. Select the System tab. The System dialog box appears.

4. Select Remove Programs. A list of programs appears.

5. Select Mobile Voice Client 2050.

6. Select Remove. A dialog box appears, asking you to confirm this decision.

7. Select Yes. A brief pause occurs while the PDA removes MVC 2050. After the pause, a dialog box appears asking if you want to perform a soft reset.

8. Select Yes. Your PDA restarts.

MVC 2050 installation method

The MVC 2050 supports installation from a docked PDA with a Microsoft ActiveSync connection to a desktop PC.

Connecting a PDA to a desktop PC using ActiveSync

Use the following procedure to synchronize your PDA to your

desktop PC:

1. Place your PDA in its cradle.

2. Ensure that ActiveSync is running. Connection is confirmed on the ActiveSync screen.

3. Wait for the two PCs to synchronize. Synchronization is confirmed on the ActiveSync screen.

MVC 2050 configuration

Enable ClearType

The MVC 2050 uses a special screen font, which requires that ClearType® be enabled on your PDA.

To enable ClearType:

1. From the PDA’s Main Application screen, select Start.

2. Select Settings.

3. Select Screen.

4. Select Enable Clear Type.

Automatic Gain Control

Since the MVC 2050 requires a headset to operate properly, disabling Automatic Gain Control is sometimes necessary to attain optimum audio quality.

Note: When the PDA is used in handsfree mode, without a headset, the PDA microphone picks up sounds from the speaker, creating a feedback loop. Automatic Gain Control is used in this instance to avoid feedback. For further information about device hardware settings, see your PDA Help system.

To disable Automatic Gain Control:

1. Select Start.

2. Select Settings.

3. Select System.

4. Select one of the following, depending on the PDA you are using: a. Audio b. Advanced Sounds c. Microphone

5. Select Automatic Gain Control.

Appearance

The appearance of the Call Handling Screen differs with each available skin. For more information about skins, see “MVC 2050 graphical

interface (skins) components” on page 21.

The MVC 2050 uses a special screen font, which requires that ClearType® be enabled on your PDA. ClearType software improves the appearance and readability of text on liquid crystal displays (LCDs),

MVC 2050 Call Handling screen

pocket PC screens, and flat panel monitors. See “MVC 2050

configuration” on page 17 for information about enabling ClearType.

MVC 2050 graphical interface (skins) components

The MVC 2050 skins are the graphical representation of the MVC 2050. The dialpad, menu, and icon buttons are located on the skin. Skins come

in several colors and arrangements.

To select a skin:

1. Select Settings.

2. Select Skin.

3. Select a skin from the list.

All skins share the following common components. See Figure 7 on

page 22.

programmable line/feature keys soft keys (self-labeled) dialpad display Call Handling icons Toolbar icons Menu Bar icons retractable toolbar System Input Panel icon

See the following examples of the MVC 2050 skins: Figures 7 to 9 starting on page 22 and Figure 16 on page 32.

The display is located in the central area of the skin. See Figure 6 on

page 20.

Programmable line/feature keys

Six programmable line/feature keys are located on the right side of the skin. They are aligned vertically and are the same color as the display. See Figure 6 on page 20.

Soft keys (self-labeled)

Four soft keys (self-labeled) are located in the bottom row of the display

area. See Figure 6 on page 20.

Note 1: The label on the key changes, based on the active feature. Note 2: A triangle before a key label indicates that the key is active.

Dialpad

The 12-button dialpad is located on the left-hand side of the skin. See

Figure 6 on page 20.

Message Lamp

The Message Lamp lets you know if you have voicemail waiting. See

Figure 6 on page 20.

Mute Indication Lamp

The color of the Mute button changes to red when the call is muted. The Toolbar must be retracted to see this indicator. because the Toolbar icon

for Mute does not change color when the microphone is muted. See

Figure 6 on page 20.

Menus

The MVC 2050 provides the following menus:

• File

• Keys

• Help

File

The following items are available from the File menu:
