Modes of Operation

Active Mode

Unless otherwise stated, the following information assumes your wireless phone is in standby mode.

To make a call:

1.Press Start Call.

This transitions your phone to active off-hook mode and a dial tone is heard. The phone is in communication with the IP Office and in the Main Display area, Dial is displayed.

2.In certain PBX integrations, some features are designed to be accessed from an active on-hook mode. To go on-hook while still active, press Line.

3.When you have completed the call, press End Call to exit the active mode and return to the standby mode.

Notes

The phone is also in active mode when you receive a call.

When your phone is in active mode, whether off-hook or not, it requires the most bandwidth of any mode. To conserve bandwidth and battery power, when you have completed a call or have finished accessing active mode menus and features, press End Call to return to standby mode.

Modes of Operation

The wireless phones uses different amounts of power and bandwidth in different modes of operation. Bandwidth is provided by access points located throughout your facility. Bandwidth availability varies by type of access point. The battery pack in your phone provides approximately four hours of talk time or 80 hours in standby mode.

If Push-to-Talk (3626 phone only) is allowed and enabled, standby battery pack life is decreased to approximately 30 hours. See Push-to-Talk.

Note

Conservation of battery life and bandwidth is possible when you understand the modes and use them appropriately.
