Active Idle
This mode is equivalent to a wired telephone that is on-hook or idle, where
the softkey display area is active but there is no dial tone. The handset
transitions to Active Idle mode in the following ways:
•
when the handset receives an incoming call while in Standby mode
•
from the Standby mode press the Actv softkey, once in Active Idle
mode the feature activation softkeys are displayed
The handset must be in Active Idle mode for the terminal to display the
CICM functionality, menus, and softkey features.
When the phone is in the on-hook state, the MENU, FCN, and LINE keys
are active. The handset remains active as long as a menu is selected or
a softkey is pressed.
Config Menu
The Config Menu is used to set user preferences for the Nortel IP Phone
WLAN Handset 6100 Series wireless handsets. In Config Menu mode, the
handset is on, but cannot make or receive calls.
When the handset is in standby mode, press the Cfg soft key to enter the
Config menu. Scroll through the menu options using the Nav keys. When
an asterisk (*) appears to the left of an option, it indicates that the option
is selected. Press Exit to return to standby mode. Press Back to return
to the previous menu.
Error
The handset transitions to the Error mode if it loses the signal from the call
server. If the handset regains its signal within approximately 20 seconds,
it returns to the same mode when signal lost. If the signal is lost for more
than 20 seconds, the handset restarts and transitions to Standby mode.
Handset Switchover
Handset Switchover occurs when a user on an active call is moving
about, the call switches from AP to AP in the subnet. This changeover is
transparent to the user.
If a wireless handset is out of range of all APs, it waits 20 seconds for
a signal to return. If a signal is not reacquired within 20 seconds, the
wireless handset loses connection with the CICM and any calls are
dropped.
When the wireless handset comes back into range of an AP, it
reestablishes a connection to the CICM and goes through the standard
terminal registration process.
