It is recommended that you read the following guidelines before using your Model
8690 endpoint:
• Consult your system administrator and your local Inter-Tel servicing company for
important information about dialing emergency services from your Model 8690
before you begin using it.
• There can only be one memory card (PCMCIA or CF) inserted when you power
on the endpoint. If you use both types of memory cards, remove one card before
powering up the endpoint.
• Generally the endpoint should remain powered on at all times. Do not power
down the endpoint unless you are instructed to do so by your network administra-
tor. If you are instructed to power down your endpoint, save the registry first (see
). If you do not save the registry, your preferences will be lost when you
power down the endpoint.
• Consult your network administrator before setting options in the Advanced sub-
menu (see
). Although you can access these options from the system tray
menu, you should not use them unless your network administrator has supplied
you with all of the network settings and additional information that are required.
• Periodically, the endpoint checks for software upgrades. When an upgrade is
available, the Software Upgrade dialog box opens, and you are prompted to
install the upgrade. You must take certain precautions to safeguard data and
preferences before performing an upgrade to the operating system. See
for important information about installing software upgrades.
• To avoid a flash memory conflict, do not make or receive calls while upgrading
the operating system. See
for important information about installing soft-
ware upgrades.
• Because the Model 8690 does not contain a battery, any data and/or files in stor-
age memory that are not saved in the Mounted Volume folder will be lost when
the device looses power.
• Because the Model 8690 has a limited storage capacity, it is recommended that
you save applications and data on a host, such as a desktop PC or a memory card
(see
) that is accessible from the endpoint. For example, using a 128 MB
Compact Flash memory card significantly increases the available storage on the
Model 8690. Any data or files saved on the memory card will be saved even if
the endpoint loses power or resets.
• Before you begin using UC on your endpoint, note that some options must be
changed or implemented from the UC Web Client on your PC (see
). You
cannot access the UC Web Client URL from your endpoint’s browser.
