After termination of ringing, if the call is not answered, the illumination goes off and remains off until a key is pressed or another call is received. If the call is answered, the illumination remains on for ten seconds (ten-second timer restart as a result of pressing a key) and then turns off automatically provided no other keys are pressed.
Backlight illumination turns off immediately after handset is placed on cradle.
2.1.5 Headset Jack
The handset is equipped with a jack that is capable of mating with a 2.5 mm plug headset (optional headset purchased separately). When the headset is plugged in, the earpiece receiver and handset microphone are disconnected and redirected to the headset earpiece and microphone. The audio will be reconnected back to the handset ear- and mouthpiece when the headset is unplugged from the jack.

3.2 Dialling
There are two basic ways that a number can dialled out from the phone – dialling digits as they are entered on the keypad (live dialling), or dialling a string that has been stored in memory. In the latter case, the string may be an entry in the handset directory or base speed dial list, contents of the redial buffer (handset or base), or a caller ID record (handset only).
During dialling, the LCD will display a “dial monitor” to indicate the dialling in progress. Starting with the first digit dialled, subsequent digits will be appended to the dial string displayed as they are dialled. The dial monitor will be displayed for ten seconds after each < the call timer on the display.
Pressing <

3.2.1 Live Dialling
To initiate live dialling, press either the <PHONE> on the handset o r <SPKR> on the base to seize the line. The digits to be dialled will be sent 800 ms after the line has been seized or when the first digit is pressed, whichever occurs later.

direct dial number (DDN) or dial number (DN). For DDN, all the digits in the data will be displayed without modifications, only adding “-“ in the appropriate places as separators (e.g. 12123456789 becomes while 3456789 becomes 345-6789). For DN, the number of digits displayed for the phone number is determined based on matching the area code of the incoming call (where available from the local telephone company) with the area code(s) configured in the phone. If the area code matches the home area code, the call is assumed to be local and the seven-digit phone number is displayed (e.g. 2123456789 becomes matches one of the local area codes, the complete ten-digit phone number is displayed (e.g. 2123456789 becomes

While the data is displayed, the LCD will clear and the handset will go back to the IDLE mode after a 20-second timeout with no operation, or when during data display, the handset will go to the RINGING mode.
Once all the new caller ID records have been reviewed, the records will be marked as “old data” as soon as the review operation is completed. However, if there are still records that have not been reviewed when the review operation is terminated, the new data will remain as “new”, even if some has just been reviewed.
It will be possible to review the caller ID data on the handset even if the base is in the base SPEAKERPHONE mode.
3.7.2 Call Back
During display of a caller ID record, the data can be selected for call back and the numbers can be easily dialled without re-entering the digits on the keypad. The area code(s) configured for the phone will be used to determine the digit string to be dialled (e.g. whether a preceding “1” for long distance calling is required) so user intervention to correct the dialled number can be minimised.

3.9.2 Handset Memory Key Entries (Option)
The mapping of the handset memory keys are maintained as special entries within the handset directory. While they are not part of the 50 named entries that are available for general user definition, they are stored and can be reviewed and modified using the same menu sequence (though with some additional restrictions).
3.9.2.1 Review Handset Memory Key Entr ies
The digit string that has been programmed to each memory key can be reviewed from the IDLE mode by using <SELECT> to begin scrolling the directory. During the display of any directory entries, pressing a <QUICKMEM> key will update the display to show the entry associated with the selected key.

MEMORY 1 2735131
The memory keys are identified by “MEMORY x” in the directory, where “x” is a single digit (starting from “1”) that refers to each memory dialling key. Thus, it will also be possible to view these entries by scrolling to the portion of the handset directory with the “M” entries.
If ringing is detected during data display, the handset will go to the RINGING mode.
3.9.2.2 Modify Handset Memory Key Entr ies
The digit string assigned to a key can be modified by reprogramming the <QUICKMEM> key (see Section 3.8.2) or by selecting to edit the data when reviewing the memory key entry. With the latter approach, unlike a typical directory entry, the name of a memory key entry (“MEMORY x”) cannot be modified; the user will only be able to change the telephone number. Pressing <SELECT> or <PGM> will complete the edit operation and program the new digit string to the asso ciated <QUICKMEM> key.
<OFF> will cancel the edit operation and the data in the stored entry will be redisplayed. If the handset is placed
on the cradle, the phone will change to the IDLE mode.
3.9.2.3 Delete Handset Memory Key Entries
There is no explicit operation to delete handset memory key entries once they have been entered. However, the digit string can be cleared when modifying the memory key entry.

The display of the redial buffer will clear after five seconds and the phone will go back to the IDLE mode. If a key is pressed during the display, it will be treated as input during the IDLE mode and the phone will change state accordingly. Similarly, if ringing is detected during the display, the phone will change to the RINGING mode.

The deletion o peration is available for both the handset and base redial buffers. After the redial buffer is cleared, the phone will go back to the IDLE mode with a

3.10 Voice Announce (Option)
The voice announce feature provides an audio announcement of an incoming call over the base and handset speakerphone. The announcement is based on the incoming caller ID data and can be one of three types: user­recorded names, pre-recorded generic announcements, or numeric announcement.
When the voice announce feature is enabled, the phone number portion of the caller ID data determines which type of announcement is made. When the number of the calling party matches one of the entries in the handset directory (the matching is based on the last seven digits of the phone number), the voice tag associated with the entry will be played. The voice tag is recorded by the u ser to identify the directory entry (generally the name will be used). It may be recorded when the entry is created, or added subsequently.
If no match for the caller number can be found in the handset directory, the caller ID data indicates a private or out-of-area caller, or the call has been intercepted by the Privacy Manager at the local telephone company (where available), a standard announcement that corresponds to “Unknown Caller”, “Private Caller” or “Privacy
Manager, press ‘1’ to continue”, respectively, will be made. These three standard announcements are pre-
programmed on the phone.

The “Unknown Caller” announcement will not be used for no matched entries if numeric announcements are enabled. In this case, or if no announcement message has been recorded for a matched entry, numeric announcement of the digits of the incoming number will be made.
Caller ID announcement will be made if the phone is in the RINGING mode. The announcement is made during the four-second interval between the second and third incoming rings. Subsequent ringing will be suppressed until the voice announcement is completed. The announcement will not be made if the base or handset is in the SPEAKERPHONE or INTERCOM mode.

3.11.1 Call Timer
While the phone is connected on a line, a call timer will display to indicate the duration of the call. The call timer is shown on the second line of the LCD as follows:
TALK
0:02’11
The maximum count of the timer is 9 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds (
9:59’59) after which the timer will be reset
(0:00’00). The timer will be started when the call is first connected (i.e. excludes dial time for outgoing calls). In general, the count of the timer will be maintained even if the mode of the phone changes, as long as the line is still seized (e.g. from TALK to HOLD to INTERCOM and back to TALK). However, the timer will be reset subsequent to a hook flash or when the active unit is switched (e.g. from handset to base or vice-versa) during a call.
3.11.2 Easy-Answer
The easy-answer feature facilitates in-the-dark answering of incoming calls. When the phone is in the RINGING mode and the hand set is off-crad le, pressing a ny key on the handset, exc ept <MUTE>, <OFF>, and the <Vol> keys, will answer the call.
If ringing is detected when the handset is non-idle (e.g. in the INTERCOM, PROGRAMMING, or MEMORY REVIEW mode, or dialling during the TALK mode), this feature is not available.
On models equipped with the Voice Announce feature, if the incoming call has been intercepted by the Privacy Manager at the local telephone company (where available), the user is required to press “1” to access the Privacy Manager.
3.11.3 Handset O n- Cradl e / Off-Cradle
Depending on the operating mod e of the phone, replacing the handset on the base unit cradle or lifting the handset off the cradle may result in the phone changing to a different mode. In all cases, a
key beep will be sounded at the
handset to indicate the change in the cradle status.

PDLci MK3 - 900MHz Single-Line Digital Cordless Telephone with Caller ID, Speakerphone & Base Keypad
4 ITAD Operation
The PDLci MK3 provides an advanced, integrated telephone-answering device (ITAD) that employs ADPCM encoding of the voice messages. The answering device includes three (optionally four) mailboxes for storing incoming messages. The ITAD can be operated locally, using keys available on the base unit, or remotely, via DTMF key inputs when calling in from another telephone.
The ITAD provides storage for up to 18 minutes of recording of incoming messages and memos (with silence compression) or 99 messages in to tal.
With the exception of turning on the answering machine and accessing remote operation, all other functions described in the following subsections are available only when the ITAD has been activated. The main modes of operation for the ITAD include answering incoming calls, recording memos, reviewing stored messages, and configuring settings.
When the ITAD is connected to an incoming call, various non-ITAD keys or events can cause the current answering machine function to terminate and the ITAD to release any connection to the telephone line:

the base), the phone will go into the INTERCOM mode.
For all remaining other ITAD functions, it will be possible for the phone to operate in the TALK (or handset SPEAKERPHONE), handset HOLD, handset PROGRAM, or MEMORY REVIEW mode even when the ITAD is in-use. However, phone operations that involve the use of the base speakerphone will cause the answering machine function to terminate:

4.1.2 Answering Incoming Calls
When the ITAD is activated, an incoming call that has not been answered after a pre-determined number of rings will be routed to the answering machine. The ITAD will answer the call and play an outgoing message (OGM) to greet the caller. The answering machine can be configured to allow the caller to leave a message after the greeting, or just play the announcement. For announce-only, the OGM will be played twice to ensure the caller does not miss the message.
There is a different OGM associated with normal and announce-only answering. Furthermore, the user can select to have a personal greeting or use the standard (pre-recorded) greeting in each case. When there are no custom OGM that has been recorded, the ITAD will use the default standard greeting.
The standard greetings are:

4.1.3 Privacy Screening (Option)
The privacy screening feature allows the answering machine to intercept calls that come in from unknown or blocked callers. Only models equipped with four mailboxes may offer this optional feature. Wh en this feature is enabled (and the ITAD is not set to announce-only answering), the phone uses the caller ID information to determine which calls will be routed to th e answerin g mach ine a utoma tically. S ince the CID info rmation is received between the first and second rings, the phone will ring once before the call is answered by the ITAD. The caller will hear the pre-recorded privacy screening OGM as follows (this OGM is separate from the normal or announce-only OGM):

If the caller leaves a message, it will be placed in ma ilbox #4. If the privacy screening option is not available or if the feature is disabled, operation of mailbox #4 (where
available) will be identical to the remainin g three mailboxes.

4.1.4 Recording Incoming Messages
When the ITAD is enabled to allow the recording of incoming message, the caller can begin recording after the OGM and the #1. The caller can select a different mailbox (i.e. mailbox #2 or #3) by entering remote telephone during the OGM playback.
Recording will be terminated when one of the following is detected:

The maximum allowable length of an incoming message is four (4) minutes. If the maximum length is reached or if memory becomes full during recording, recording will also be terminated automatically.
Extended period of silence at the end of the recording will be removed in the stored message. If the incoming message is less than two seconds long, it will not be regarded as a valid message. Otherwise, it will be stored into memory along with a time- and day-stamp and the appropriate ITAD message counters (i.e., the total number of messages in all the mailboxes and the number o f new messages in the selected mailbox) will be incremented by one. The updated number of messages will be indicated on the 7-segment display.
When the recording is terminated, the ITAD will release the telephone line connection. The phone will stay off-hook and go into the TALK mode if the user has pressed the <
PHONE> or <SPRK> key to intercept the call; in all other
cases, the phone will go into the IDLE mode.
4.1.5 Call-Screening
When the ITAD answers a call and call-screening is enabled, the user will be able to hear the voices (to and from the caller) on the base speakerphone (assuming the volume level is sufficient loud). The user can choose to talk to the caller anytime after the ITAD has answered the call by one of the following: pressing < removing the handset fr om the cra dle, p ressing <

4.1.7 Reviewing Messages / Memos
When the ITAD i s not active ly engaged in an o peratio n (e.g. playing OGM , reco rding i ncoming message o r memo, or changing configuration), the 7-segment display will blink a count to indicate the total number o f new messages and memos stored in the answering machine.

At the start of recording playback, the ITAD will announce the number of messages available in the selected mailbox. Generally, o nly the new messages in the mailbox will be played during message review. However, if there are no new messages in the mailbo x, the ITAD will play back the old messages. A message will be considered old after it has been revie wed (played bac k completely or if it has been skippe d through by the user delibera tely). The playback sequence for the messages will be first-in-first-out (FIFO). During playback, the 7-segment display will indicate the number of the current message. The count display will blink if the message is new, or it will be on steady otherwise. A
start-of-recording alert will sound prior to the start of each message, while the time- and day-

The functions that are available via remote operations include activating/deactivating the answering machine, reviewing (and del eting) messages, recording memo, and modifying personal gr eetings.
During remote operation, entering " key on the base unit will terminate the current operation and the ITAD will disconnect the line. The ITAD will also exit remote operation and hang up after a 20-second, no-activity timeout.
4.2.1 Accessing Remote Operation
To access the ITAD operations available from a remote telephone, the user must call in and dial the correct security code when the ITAD answers the call and plays the appropriate greeting or prompt.

ignored. The two-second muting time will be counted from the second key.
4.2.2 Voice Menu for Remote Control
The ITAD provides two pre-recorded voice menus to help the user navigate the remote op eration optio ns. A simple voice menu list the key sequence for accessing the most commonly used operations, while an advance voice menu is available to list the key sequence for the remaining operations available. The simple voice menu will be played in eight seconds after the caller has entered a valid security code and the ITAD announced the number of new messages or anytime the caller dials
*5. The ITAD will change to play the advance menu if *5 is pressed (again) during
the simple voice menu.

The maximum length of the memo is four (4) minutes. If memory becomes full during recording, recording will be terminated automatically.
If the memo is less than two seconds long, it will not be regarded as a valid message. Otherwise, it will be stored into memory along with a time-and day-stamp and the appropriate ITAD message counters (i.e., the total number of messages in all the mailboxes and the number o f new messages in the selected mailbox) will be incremented by one. The updated number of messages will be indicated on the 7-segment display.

4.2.5 Reviewing Messages
The caller can select to review the messages in a desired mailbox by dialling the function key sequence that corresponds to the desired mailbox ( access mailbox 4 where the privacy screening option is available). At the start of recording playback, the ITAD will announce the number of messages available in the selected mailbox. Generally, only the new messages in the mailbox will be played during message review. However, if there are no new messages in the mailbox, the ITAD will play back the old messages. A message will be considered old after it has been reviewed (played back completely or if it has been skipped through by the user deliberately). The playback sequence for the messages will be first-in-first­out (FIFO). The time- and day-stamp that indicates the time of recording will be announced at the end of each message.

TITLE Internal Product Specification MODEL
PDLci MK3 - 900MHz Single-Line Digital Cordless Telephone with Caller ID, Speakerphone & Base Keypad
5 RF Link Operation
The radio frequency (RF) link is a full-duplex communication path between the PDLci MK3 base and the handset units. It is used to transfer both audio (voice) and data between the base and handset. There are a total of 30 RF channels available for communication. Only one channel may be selected as the active channel at any instant, though there are provisions to select to a different active channel when there are perceived interference on the current channel.
5.1 RF Link Data
Data is transmitted over the RF link between the handset and the base unit in packets. A fixed frame format is used to provide for the simultaneous transmission of three logical channels – voice, control and frame synchronisation data. The voice channel contains analog voice signals that have been are digitised using 32 kbps ADPCM data encoding; the control data are generally operational commands from the base to handset and vice-versa; and the frame synchronisation d ata facilitates reception of the packet over the RF link. For improved security, the voice and control data is scrambled prior to transmission; descrambling must be done at the receiving end prior to further processing of the voice and control data.
When the phone is in the IDLE mode, the base and handset will listen for data transmission from the other relating to the initiation of the PHONE, RINGING, PROGRAM or INTERCOM mode. If the handset is away from the cradle, the handset will be in the power-conservation mode of operation, in which the on-board electronics are essentially “asleep” but will wake up periodically to check for incoming data transmitted from the base. T he handset will detect commands sent fr om the base within one (1) second (maximum ringing delay), while the base will detect commands sent from the handset within 200 ms (maximum on/off-hook delay).
5.2 Security Code
All data communication over the RF link will include a security code as required by FCC Part 15. When a frame is received over the RF link, the security code is contained in the packet (part of the control channel) will be verified before any data is processed. This prevents the handset from receiving commands from another base unit and vice­versa.
The handset and base units will use an identical, 24-bit security code that is factory-configured. The security code is stored in the non-volatile memory o n bo th units and cannot be modified by the user.
5.3 RF Channel Selection
In order for the handset and base unit to communicate over the RF link, the selection of the active channel must be synchronised between the two units. An active channel is initially selected during the PDLci MK3 initialisation process. If the RF link subsequently degrades during operation, recovery involves the selection of a new communication channel that is automatically initiated and no user-intervention will be required.
Regardless of the phone’s operating mode, both the handset and base units are constantly monitoring the quality of the active communication channel. Even when the handset is in power-conservation mode, the base is periodically transmitting link-status messages to the handset to verify the integrity of the RF link. The handset will also respond periodically to the link-status message to provide feedback to the base unit.
When the link is operational, the assessment of the channel quality is done based on the error rate detected on the incoming frames. While the voice channel is transparent, the control channel includes an error control mechanism.

TITLE Internal Product Specification MODEL
PDLci MK3 - 900MHz Single-Line Digital Cordless Telephone with Caller ID, Speakerphone & Base Keypad
If the error rate of the incoming data is beyond an acceptable threshold, either the handset or the base can independently initiate a channel change.
The best channel out of the remaining 29 channels will be selected as the new channel. (If no improved channel can be identified, the units will remain on the existing active channel and scanning for a new channel will begin again after a brief delay.) If a new channel is selected and a link can be maintained in spite of a degraded link condition, the change to a new channel will occur in a co-ordinated manner. Otherwise, the handset and base unit will attempt the link recovery procedure.
5.4 Handset Out of Range Detection
When the RF link is broken between the handset and the base, the handset will provide both a visual and audible alert. The audible alert consists of two separate alarm tones, and each will be sounded for 30 seconds for total duration of 60 seconds. The LCD will continue to display the re-established or the battery becomes dead.

If the handset was in the TALK mode when out-of-range was detected, and the link is re-established during the sounding of the alarm (i.e. within 60 seconds), the handset will resume in the TALK mode and the conversation will be continued. Otherwise, the line will be dropped and the phone will return to the IDLE mode.
5.5 Link Recovery
The RF link between the handset and base can be broken because the handset has gone out-of-range or because of the active channel selection at the handset and base are out of synchronisation. In either case, the units will attempt to re-establish communication with each other. The base unit will continuously transmit packets on the different channels while the handset scans all the channels for an incoming packet from the base. To prevent a deadlock condition, the rates with which the units cycle through the c hannels are different between the handse t and the b ase. With the handset scanning at a significantly faster rate than the base, the handset will have multiple chances of receiving the base transmission and responding to it before the base changes to transmit on another channel.
During the link recovery procedure, the LCD will continuously display the the link is re-established successfully, the LCD will display the where “x” identifies the (newly selected) active channel.

6 Power Management
The PDLci MK3 is powered by a battery pack in the handset and by AC power (primary) or battery pack (backup) in the base unit.
6.1 Battery
The handset operates from a three-cell, 600 mAh battery pack which is rechargeable. There are no connectors attached to the battery pack. When fully charged, the battery will provide a minimum of seven (7) hours of operation in the TALK mode, three (3) hours of operation in handset SPEAKERPHONE mode, or seven (7) days of operation in the IDLE mode before requiring recharge. The battery pack will recharge automatically whenever the handset is placed in the cradle of the base unit. (The the battery pack can also be recharged via a compatible remote charger.
6.2 Low Battery Indication
The phone will provide both audible and visual warning when low battery condition in the handset is detected. When the handset determines that the batte ry is running low, the LCD will display the icon. In addition, the LCD will display a a non-IDLE mode. The low battery alarm will be repeated every three (3) seconds for up to five times during the active call or operation. The user may press any key during the fifteen-second alarm interval to suppress the message display and audible alert. Except for the continued display of the low-battery icon, the remaining low-battery indication will not be repea ted until the phone go es off-ho ok or b egins anot her op eratio n after r eturning to the IDLE state.

6.4.
Spare Battery LED will illuminate when a battery pack is placed in the
6.4 POTS Mode Operation
The PDLci MK3 provides a mode of operation that emulates a plain old telephone set (POTS). It allows the base unit to maintain operation during AC power outages or any situation where the AC power is removed from the base unit when there is a charged battery installed in the spare battery compartment.
To indicate the phone is operating in POTS mode, the handset LCD will display a CHECK AC POWER message and the base Spare Battery LED will blink.

TITLE Internal Product Specification MODEL
PDLci MK3 - 900MHz Single-Line Digital Cordless Telephone with Caller ID, Speakerphone & Base Keypad
During POTS mode operation, all handset functions will be available during except for intercom with the base, but all base speakerphone and ITAD functions will be inhibited:
If the handset has been active on a call, it will remain connected to the line.
If the base has been active on a call, it will be disconnected; the call will be dropped unless the handset
has previously been in a three-way conference.
If the call has been placed on hold by the base, the call will remain on hold and the handset can release
the hold to pick up the call.
If an intercom has been set up between the handset and base, the intercom will be terminated.
The phone will have no audible or visual indication when a low battery condition is detected on the spare battery during POTS mode operation.
6.5 Power Interruption
Either the handset or base unit may occasionally suffer from power interruption during operation. The handset power supply may be interrupted if the battery is physically removed from the compartment. Alternatively, the handset battery may be completely drained of its charges. In the base unit, the power supply is interrupted when AC power is unavailable.
In either case, the PDLci MK3 provides the capability to recover from the power interruption. Operation in the handset SPEAKERPHONE or TALK mode will be maintained through a brief power interruption ( up to 125 ms in duration) to the base unit. In all other instances, the affected unit will be reset to allow the handset and base unit to re-establish RF communication and resume operation in the IDLE mode. The critical information that must be available to allow quick restoration of RF communication is the security code and the last active RF channel. On both the handset and base unit, this information will be resto r ed directly from non-volatile memory.
All directory entries, redial information, caller ID log and area code(s) configuration will be retained through a power interruption to the handset. However, the ringer type, volume, and receiver volume settings will be reset to the default values when the power resumes. Similarly, the speakerphone volume setting will be reset after a power interruption to the base unit.
For the ITAD, all messages in the mailboxes, user-recorded announcements as well as configuration for the answering machine will be retained through a power interr uption. After the p ower resumes, the IT AD will have a brief initialisation period (the -- indication will flash o n the 7-segment display) before normal ITAD operation can resume (phone operation is available during this time). In addition, the real time clock will need to be reset by the user (the [L indication will show on the 7-segment display to remind the user).
