Keypad Lock Settings

The handset keypad can be locked to minimize the risk of accidentally pressing keys or buttons
while the handset is not in use. When Automatic key lock is set to "On", the keypad is
automatically locked if the handset is out of use for a specified time. The length of time is set
by the "Auto lock time" parameter. The shortest time that can be set before the key lock is
applied is 5 seconds and the longest time is 3 minutes.
The automatic key lock can be configured by the administrator in the PDM/Device Manager.
For additional information, see the Mitel 5604 Wireless Handset Configuration Manual. The
user may also select one of the following for the automatic key lock:
"On": the keypad is automatically locked if it is not used before the specified lock time elapses.
"On, except calls": the keypad is automatically locked if it is not used for the specified lock time.
If the user is in call when the lock time elapses, the keypad remains unlocked until the user has
completed the call.
"Off": the keypad is never automatically locked.
Note: A call can be answered or ended while the keypad is locked. For the 5604 Personal
Alarm, the alarm button can be pressed while the keypad is locked.
If configured in the PDM/Device Manager, any one of up to five predefined emergency
numbers can be called while the keypad is locked. See the Mitel 5604 Wireless Handset
Configuration Guide.
