Safety

For your safety

The IP telephone optiPoint 300 basic complies with the European standard EN 60 950 which deals with the safety of information technology appliances including electronic office equipment. This device has been designed with safety in mind, thus protecting both individuals and objects.
There is always the danger of small objects being swallowed by young children. In the case of the optiPoint 300 basic, this applies in particular to the connecting cord clip. Please make sure that such items are not accessible to children.
Use only the enclosed power supply and the special LAN ca-
ble. Never open the power supply enclosure.

Protection of the telephone

The telephone must not be used in bathrooms, etc. as it is not
splashproof. Before connecting or disconnecting the LAN cable or the
headset cord, pull the power plug out of the plug receptacle first.
Safety

Location of the telephone

The telephone should be operated in a controlled en vironment with an ambient temperature between 5˚C and 40˚C (41˚F and 104˚F).
Do not install the telephone in a room where large quantities of dust accumulate; this can considerably reduce the service life of the telephone.
Do not expose the telephone to direct sunlight or any other
source of heat, as this is liable to damage the electronic equip­ment and the plastic casing.
Do not operate the telephone in damp environments such as
bathrooms.

Service

Product information
In some cases, while using the telephone you may hear an echo, which can be quite strong. This is not due to any design defect or other fault with your IP telephone, but caused by the other client. For example, if the echo occurs during a teleconf erence, it may be that the loudspeakers and microphones need to be repositioned.

Installation

This chapter tells you how to connect the components of the opti­Point 300 basic telephone to one another prior to use.
Connecting the telephone to a LAN and configuring it for proper operation are tasks of the network administrator. They are de­scribed in the chapter entitled "Configuration and administration". Administrators who wish to install and configure IP phone telepho­ny devices via a web interf ace will find detailed informations in the chapter entitled "The web pages".

Preparing the telephone

To connect the telephone components, proceed as follows.
Installation
The two cable ends of the handset cord are equipped with identical four-pin Western plugs (RJ 11).
Latch the Western plug of the handset cord in the handset
receptacle ("short" end). Latch the other end of the cord in the receptacle (3) on the
bottom of the telephone ("long" end). Feed the cord through the guide channel in the base unit.
Latch the LAN cord with the eight-pin Western plug (RJ 45) in the receptacle (2) on the bottom of the telephone, and con­nect with LAN.
Feed the LAN cord through the guide channel in the base unit.

Installation
Latch the four-pin (red) Western plug (RJ 11) of the power
supply unit cord in the receptacle (1) on the bottom of the tele­phone.
Feed the power supply unit cord through the guide channel in
the base unit.
The Western plugs of all cable connections must audibly snap into place.

Integrating the telephone into the communication environment

Like all terminal equipment connected to a LAN, the optiPoint 300 basic must have an IP address assigned. The procedure for set­ting up the network environment for the telephone is described be­low. Note that the optiPoint 300 basic can operate with a HiPath 5500/ 5300, but this is not mandatory.
If you have any questions concerning the LAN environment or the terminology used, contact your network administrator.

Loading the application software

When the optiPoint 300 basic telephone is connected to power, it automatically boots up, i.e. loads and executes the application software. During the boot phase you will see three dashes scroll­ing across the display, from left to right:
– – –
If the boot phase cannot be completed successfully (because of missing or defective application software), you will see:
b00t FA1LEd
In such a case, please ask your network administrator or call the service.
After the boot phase, the telephone checks whether it is config­ured to automatically load basic settings from a DHCP server. If it is, the boot process continues as described in “HiPath system with DHCP server” on page 20. If it is not set to load settings from a DHCP server, the boot process continues as described in “HiPath system without DHCP server” on page 21.

HiPath system with DHCP server

The optiPoint 300 basic telephone comes with factory settings that enable it to get an IP address automatically from the DHCP serv­er, once it is connected to a LAN.
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
When the settings cannot be successfully downloaded from a DHCP server, the error message “No IP” is displayed. Press the Service key and switch the telephone to manual IP assignment as described in “IP assignment by DHCP” on page 50. Then contin ue as described in “HiPath system without DHCP server” on page 21.
When the settings have been received correctly, you will be asked to make some additional settings, as shown here:

Operation
This chapter tells you how to use the optiPoint 300 basic tele­phone.
All of the optiPoint 300 basic functions are performed using the telephone keys.
The unit can be used as a traditional telephone. Simply enter the number you want to dial on the keypad. If you make a mistake, erase it by pressing the < key. Hold the key down to erase the complete number just entered, or to return to the start of the num­ber.
You may also enter an IP address instead of a telephone number. T o do this, separate the three-digit g roups of the address by press­ing the asterisk separator *. In the display, this will show up as the underline character _.
Specialised functions are selected using the appropriate symbol keys. The meanings of the symbol keys depend on the conte xt, i.e. the operating mode of the optiPoint 300 basic.

Making a call

Y ou can make a telephone call with the handset pic ked up or in the cradle.

Incoming call

An incoming call will be indicated by the ringer tone and by the dis­play. If the optiPoint 300 basic is in idle mode, you will hear the ringer and the display will show the caller's identification. Up to 20 digits can be displayed, so if the caller's number is longer than this, only the last 20 places will be shown. If the caller has restrict­ed calling line identification (CLIR), your unit will display the rele­vant symbol instead of the number.
If there is an incoming call and "CW" is off while the optiPoint 300 basic is in programming mode or service mode, the caller will hear a busy signal. The programming or service in progress will not be affected.

Second incoming call

Picking up a second call
Operation
With the call-waiting feature enabled , you can use the tele­phone to receive a second incoming call without disconnecting the first caller.
When you pick up the new call, the previous caller will be put on background hold and the connection to the new caller becomes the active connection.
Alternately, you may turn down the new call offer, in which case the existing connection remains the active one. In this case the new caller will hear a busy signal.
While you are on the line speaking to your first caller, the active connection is displayed. If a second call comes in, you will see:
