Wireless IP Telephone Modes

Standby In the standby mode the Wireless IP Telephone is waiting for an incoming call or
(on-hook) for the user to place an outgoing call. The extension number is shown on the
display and there is no dial tone. In this mode, the Wireless IP Telephone is
conserving battery power and wireless LAN bandwidth.
When an incoming call occurs the handset will ring loudly until the call is
answered by pressing the START
ringing.
Predial To place a call using predialing (cell phone dialing), dial the number while in
standby mode and then press START. This action transitions the Wireless IP
Telephone to active off-hook mode and the number is immediately called.
Active To place a call, press the START key. This transitions the Wireless IP Telephone
(off-hook) to active off-hook mode. There is a dial tone, the Wireless IP Telephone is in
communication with the PBX, and the display shows information as it is received
from the PBX. The user may place a call or press the FCN or LINE key to access
additional operations.
The Wireless IP Telephone is also in the active mode when a call is received.
When an incoming call occurs the handset will ring until the call is answered by
pressing the START key, or the END key is pressed to silence the ringing. If END is
pressed, the first call is terminated and the handset reverts to a full ring.
The active modes utilize the most bandwidth and battery power. To conserve
these resources and allow the handset to receive new calls, return the Wireless
IP Telephone to the standby mode when a call is completed by pressing the END
key.
Configuration When user preferences are being configured in the Config menu, the handset is
Menu Mode on but is not active. It cannot receive calls while in the Config menu.
Push-to-talk The Avaya 3645 Wireless IP Telephone utilizes channels for incoming and
(PTT) Mode outgoing radio communication. While PTT is active, the handset is in PTT mode.
It can receive regular phone calls in this mode. When a regular phone call is
answered, the handset enters active mode.
Messaging If text messaging functions have been programmed as in a nurse call system, the
Mode handset is able to receive text messages. While these messages are being
accessed, the handset is in Messaging mode. Incoming calls will ring with the
second call ringing sound.
