8 Live signal and notification management
8.1 Introduction
Your handset offers services such as live calls, notification calls, event keys or status calls. These services
must be activated and configured by your administrator. Please contact your admnistrator before using
these services.
Only notification and event calls can be initiated by the user. Live signals and status calls are transparent to
the user as these calls are automatically made by the handset.
• Live signals:
Live signals are calls that are made automatically (every 90 seconds by default) by the handset to
the notification server. The information sent to the notification server allows the server to confirm
that the handset is under coverage and is working.
• Notification calls:
Notification calls are initiated by the user of the handset. They are used to notify the server of
emergencies such as injuries or material damage when specific keys are pressed. Refer to the
'Notification calls' chapter in the user guide for information on how to initiate a notification call.
• Key event calls:
Key event calls are also initiated by users when pressing particular keys on the numeric keypad.
These are designed to notify the server that certain tasks have been completed, for example, 'room
is ready' in the case of a hotel application.
• Status calls:
Status calls are automatically established by the handset each time the handset is plugged into or
removed from the charger and each time the handset is switched on and off.
8.2 Notification calls
These calls are designed to send alarm signals easily in emergency situations. Typically, emergency
situations involve injuries or material damage and have highest priority among all other alarm events and
calls.
Notification calls are made by a long press on the following keys:
• Press the function key (side key) to activate the emergency notification call.
OR
Press the OK key to active the emergency notification call. depends on configuration.
The handset is communicating with the alarm server. The message that appears on the handset display will
depend on your system configuration.
The normal call processing message is displayed on the screen and, depending on the configuration, the
user may receive an acknowledgement or in conference message.
The notification calls are priority calls and can be performed in any handset status. Handset statuses are:
idle, conversation, dialling, calling, configuration, put in charger, removed from charger. Any active call will
8242 DECT Handset
8AL90306USACed04
48 /57
be terminated as soon as a notification call is initiated. Notification calls will also interrupt any calls such as
live, key event or status calls.
During the notification process, all user actions are ignored until communication is established with the
alarm server. Then either the user or the alarm server can terminate the call and the handset will return to
idle state and will be available to process any subsequent user calls.
8.3 Key event calls
This feature allows you to send an information message to the notification server by pressing particular
keys on the numeric pad. This Key event call can only be performed when the handset is in idle state. A
typical application of this feature could be to press a specific key when a room is ready in the case of a
hotel application. Each long press on a different key will send a different message to the server.
• 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0 (long press).
After activating the key event process, the user should wait until communication is established with the
alarm server before pressing any key, to ensure it is functioning correctly. Then either the user or the alarm
server can terminate the call and the handset will return to idle state and will be available to process any
subsequent user calls.
If configured in the key setting options, F1 and F2 keys can be used as key events. The use of these keys
is equivalent to:
F keys

8.4 Force ringing
Your phone may be in silent or vibrate mode. Despite this configuration your phone may ring when there is
a specific call from an alarm server. While the handset is ringing, a message (maximum of 14 characters)
may also appear on the phone display.
Select alarm modes for local alarm signaling and alarm calls from alarm server:
• Off: follow the current handset audio mode.
• Ring: ring for alarm regardless of the handset audio mode.
• Vibrate and ring: apply this behavior regardless of the handset audio mode.
• Vibrate: apply this behavior regardless of the handset audio mode.
• Beeps:beeps for alarm regardless of the handset audio mode.
8.5 Calls
While the phone is making such a call, the standard call processing message appears on the display and
you are unable to receive or set up any other calls.
Notification calls have the highest priority over any other calls. In the event of a notification call, any other
call will be interrupted. All keys will be locked during the notification process in order to avoid the activation
of call back, consultation call, etc.
8.6 Alarm acknowledgment
After an alarm is triggered, the alarm server can set a location audio signal on the phone. This signal is
designed to help rescue teams to locate the phone and its user.
The phone sends a location audio signal.
• Access MENU.
• Alarm ack
• If configured. Enter device PIN code (The default is 0000).
• Send alarm ack
The location audio signal ends up.
If the on-screen acknowledgment is configured you can directly acknowledge by pressing on the
acknowledgment softkey when the 'Send Acknowledge' pop-up is displayed.

9 Registering the telephone
9.1 Registering the telephone on a system for the first time
For the mobile telephone to function, it must be registered on at least one ALE International PBX. If, when
first switched on, the display indicates: 'Auto install?' your telephone has not been registered on any
system.
• Access MENU.
• Settings
• System settings
• Enter the PIN Code (The default is 0000).
• Apply.
Registration can begin
• Register
• Select a system (It is recommended that the first empty system is selected).
• Enter PARK code (enter nothing if not mandatory).
• Press the 'OK' key to confirm.
• Enter access code (enter nothing if not mandatory).
• Press the 'OK' key to confirm.
• Select Power mode (You are advised not to select the 50 mW power mode unless
required. The '50mW power mode' is intended for hazardous sites such as nuclear plants
where it is requested that emissions do not exceed the maximum value.).
• Enhanced Security
• Yes / No
Call from encrypted system to un-encrypted system is accepted (yes) or rejected (no).
The registration operation can last up to 2 minutes.
• If the operation has been done correctly (subscription accepted), the radio reception quality icon is
displayed and the telephone is ready to be used.
• If the registration operation has not been successful, the station proposes launching the
subscription again.
Utilization of the telephone in GAP mode can lead to functional limitations for which no claims will be
considered under the terms of the warranty.
During registration phase, to improve security and optimize registration in a multi-system environment,
the handset enforces a minimum signal strength level to accept to register to a base station. To achieve
the conditions, it is recommended to perform registration in a place where a base station is in direct
visibility within a 20 m range. If base station is not visible the range shall be lowered.
During registration phase in a multi-system environment, all systems are scanned without priority. The
system is selected when the signal strength is above a certain level and registration matches.

• If the registration operation has not been successful, the station proposes launching the subscription
again.
• Depending on the type of system concerned, registration may require one or more additional operations
on the system.
During registration phase, to improve security and optimize registration in a multi-system environment, the
handset enforces a minimum signal strength level to accept to register to a base station. To achieve the
conditions, it is recommended to perform registration in a place where a base station is in direct visibility
within a 20 m range. If base station is not visible the range shall be lowered.
During registration phase in a multi-system environment, all systems are scanned without priority. The
