Appendix A—Additional Information

Changing the Personality Module

If you change your PDA to another model, or if you inherit a 5230 IP Appliance from someone with a different PDA model, you will probably need a new Personality Module before you can use the your PDA with your 5230 IP Appliance. Talk to your Mitel Networks vendor to find out which Personality Module you need for your PDA model.

Note: Inserting a PDA in the wrong 5230 Personality Module may damage your PDA and/or the 5230 IP Appliance.

To change a Personality Module

1.Unplug the LAN cable, the computer cable (if any) and the PDA charger cable at the back of the 5230 IP Appliance (see the figure “5230 IP Appliance Connectors” on page 3).

2.Press downwards on the cradle latch (above model number), and remove the old Personality Module.

3.Insert the new Personality Module in its recess, bottom first. Gently push the top of the cradle in the recess, until the latch clicks in.
