SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone Configuration

OAI On/Off

SpectraLink’s Open Application Interface (OAI) enables third-party computer applications to display alphanumeric messages on the handset display and take input from the handset keypad. Refer to the OAI Specification documentation for information about administering the OAI Gateway and the services it can provide.

If OAI is enabled, and an IP address (called the OAI Server IP) is available to the handset (either via DHCP or Static IP configuration), the handset will communicate with the OAI Gateway at power-on, and periodically while it is powered-on. If you don’t have a SpectraLink 8000 OAI Gateway installed at your site, you should disable the OAI feature to preserve network bandwidth and battery life.

To conserve handset battery life, do not enable OAI unless an OAI gateway is present and an application is available.

Admin Password

The Admin Password controls access to the administration functions in the Admin menu. The password must be set in each handset for which controlled access is desired. Handsets are shipped without any Admin menu password. Data entry for the password uses the alphanumeric string entry technique. A password may be up to 32 characters. Type the password and press the Save softkey. A confirmation prompt will appear. Type the password again and press the Save softkey. If the passwords match, the Admin password has been set.

If you Save with no entry, the password is erased and the display will not require it before displaying the Admin menu.

IP Address
