2 Making Handset Ready
In this chapter we briefly describe how to prepare the handset for use, install, and how to insert and charge new batteries.
2.1 Package - Contents/Damage Inspection
2.1.1 Before Package Is Opened
Examine the shipping package for evidence of physical damage or mishandling prior to opening. If there is proof of mishandling prior to opening, you must report it to the relevant support center of the regional representative
or operator.
2.1.2 Contents of Package
Make sure all relevant components are available in the package before proceeding to the next step. In principle, every shipped handset unit package/box contains the following items:
1 x Handset unit
1 x Battery cover
1 x Handset belt clip
1 x Charger
1 x A/C Adaptor
1 x Battery
1 x plastic cover to replace the belt clip
SME VoIP Handset Guide 5.1 Proprietary and Confidential Page | 7
2.1.3 Damage Inspection
The following is the recommended procedure for you to use for damage inspection:
1. Examine all relevant components for damage.
2. Make a “defective on arrival - DOA” report or RMA to the operator. Do not move the shipping carton
until the operator has examined it. The operator/regional representative will initiate the necessary procedure to process this RMA. They will guide the network administrator on how to return the damaged package if necessary.
3. If no damage is found, then unwrap all the components and dispose of empty package/carton(s) in
accordance with country specific environmental regulations.
2.2 Before Using the Phone
The following are the precautions users should read before using the handset:
2.2.1 Installing the Battery
1. Never dispose battery in fires, otherwise it will explode.
2. Never replace the batteries in potentially explosive environments, e.g. close to inflammable
liquids/gases.
3. ONLY use approved batteries and chargers from the vendor or operator.
4. Do not disassemble, customize, or short circuit the battery
2.2.2 Using the Charger
Each handset is charged using a handset charger. The charger is a compact desktop unit designed to charge and automatically maintain the correct battery charge levels and voltage. The handset charger is powered by AC supply from 110-240VAC that supplies 5.0VDC at 1000mA. When charging the battery for the first time, it is necessary to leave the handset in the charger for at least 10 hours before the battery is fully charged, and the handset is ready for use.
2.2.3 Handset in the Charger
For correct charging, ensure that the room temperature is between 0°C and 25°C / 32°F and 77°F. Do not place the handset in direct sunlight. The battery has a built-in heat sensor which will stop charging if the battery temperature is too high.
If the handset is turned off when placed in charger, the handset turns on and shows (shortly) the charging message “The battery is charging”. After a while the display backlight first dim and then turns off (if demo mode is not enabled). There will be response for e.g. incoming calls.
If the handset is turned on when placed in charger, the display shows (shortly) the charging message “The battery is charging”. After a while the display backlight first dim and then turns off if unless “Idle Screen Saver” is switched on.

2.2.4 How to Open Back Cover
1. Open the belt lock and slide down the back-cover as shown on the image below
2. Remove Back Cover from Handset
2.2.5 How to Replace Battery
Remove the back cover from the handset as showed in section 2.2.4 How to Open Back Cover above. Then remove the old battery and replace with a new one.
2.2.6 Handset Serial and IPEI/IPUI Number
The serial number and IPEI/IPUI number of each handset is found either on a label, which is placed behind the battery, or on the packaging label. First, lift off handset back cover and lift the battery and read the serial number.

6.4.5 Easy registration
“Easy registration” is a new feature which enables the user to add new handsets without having to open the base
webpage. This means, that the user can physically enable the registration mode by booting/pressing the reset button on the base station, or by using the “Easy registration” menu on the handset.
6.4.5.1 Register handsets
Once the base station is unpacked and powered on, it enters a registration mode for 120 seconds. In order to establish a connection, the base station must be already provisioned with extension/SIP registration data for the upcoming handsets. While the base is open for registration, the LED will blink, and the user should power on a handset which has no current registration. A “registering” screen should be displayed after booting of the handset is completed. Afterwards, it will automatically be registered to the base station. If the registration process of 120 seconds has timed out, the user can easily restart the process by rebooting the base or by unplugging/plugging the power connection. As soon as the first handset has been registered, the user may continue adding handsets following the normal procedure mentioned below.
After having registered handset number one to the base station, the system now is up and running. In order to connect a second handset, the user should go to the Connectivity menu and select the “Easy registration” feature. The system will enter the registration mode and the user can then power on the new handset number two. After a moment, the new handset will be registered to the base station. The end user will see a confirmation screen on both handsets number one and two, where the user can compare if the IPEI matches. After pressing “Okay”, the system opens again the registration window for 120 seconds where the user can add another handset.
SME VoIP Handset Guide 5.1 Proprietary and Confidential Page | 29
6.4.5.2 Register repeaters
The feature also allows the registration of repeaters to the system. To register a repeater, enter the “Easy registration” menu from the handset and allow new devices to the system. Power on the repeater. As soon as
the device screen has shown success, the user may compare the IPEI from the screen of the handset with the IPEI on the repeater’s label. By doing so, the user will make sure that the correct device has been added.

7.7 Conference Call
In a conference call there are always at least three parties in the same conversation. Hereby, this feature enables the user to have an ongoing call with more than one person – the parties in a conference call are called participants.

The “Conference” screen as seen below will then be displayed, and the three participants will be in a conference
call. Thereby the conversation is between all three parties
NOTE 1: It is possible to invite more participants to the conference by repeating the steps 2. – 6. for one of the participants in the conference that has not yet invited a party to the conference. Once a participant has invited a new party to the conference it is not possible for this participant to invite new parties to the conference.
NOTE 2: The maximal number of participants to participate in a conference call is set according to the number of bases in a system. On a system with two bases it should be possible to have 10 participants in a conference call.
SME VoIP Handset Guide 5.1 Proprietary and Confidential Page | 66
7.7.2 Terminating a Conference Call
When a conference call is terminated it is dependent of which participant that terminates it, if the whole conference is terminated, or if the conference is ongoing between the two participants left in the conference.
Option 1
1. The user who has started the conference presses the red “On-hook” key to terminate the
conference call.
2. The whole conference is terminated, and none of the participants continue to be in call.
Option 2
1. One of the participants that have been invited to the conference presses the red “On-hook” key
to terminate the conference call.
2. The call is only terminated for the participant that terminated the call
3. There is still an ongoing call between the initiator of conference and the participant that has not ended
the call.
NOTE: Different configurations on the PBX that the base system uses may result in different terminations of a
conference call. E.g. the configuration of some PBX’s could cause that the whole conference call is not terminated if the initiator of the conference presses the red “On-hook” key to terminate.
