Enabling or Disabling Line Preselection

3While still holding ", press O.

The handset beeps twice, and the display shows the handset settings, indicating that you are now in Local Mode. (While in Local Mode, the MDW 9031/9031DCP can still receive notification of incoming calls.)

If the vibrator is enabled, the VIBR icon appears in the display. For example:

ON

If the vibrator is disabled, no icon appears.

4Press “V” ( 8) on the dialpad to enable or disable the vibrator.

5Press Oto exit Local Mode.

Note: Both the alerter and the vibrator can be disabled at the same time. In this case the only notification you have of an incoming call is that a line status indicator (a truncated triangle or a rectangle, depending on your communications system) flashes in the display.

Line Preselection lets you choose the line or button you want to use before turning the handset on. For example, suppose your phone is ringing but you want to pick up a call that is holding on another line instead of the ringing call. In normal operation, the communications system automatically connects you to the ringing line as soon as you turn on the handset. With Line Preselection enabled, you can select the line you want to connect to before turning on the handset.

Notes: Enabling Line Preselection lets the user retrieve both lines of display by pressing the Column button programmed for SCROLL, without turning the handset “on.”

Under certain conditions, the communications system tries to turn on a speaker; for example, if you use Line Preselection to select a button programmed for speed-dialing. Since the MDW 9031/9031DCP Pocket Phone has no speaker, the system causes the ON icon in the handset display to flutter, and the handset emits a continuous double beep. You must press Oto complete the connection.

When Line Preselection is enabled, you do not have to use it; however you cannot use it unless it is enabled.

To enable Line Preselection, use the following procedure:

1Make sure the handset is turned off.

2Press and hold the Select button ( ") for three seconds.
