Infrared Dialing on 4600 Series Phones
IP Office - Job Aid
Several phones in the 4600 Series include an infrared (IR) port at the front of
the phone. This includes the 4606, 4612, 4624 and 4620.
•
The port appears as a dark plastic window just in front of the phones
dialing keys.
•
Support for IR port operation is part of 4600 Series 1.6 phone
software and higher. This software is supported as part of IP Office
Level 1.3.
You can use the IR port in the following ways:
•
Dial a Number to Start a Call:
This can be done by beaming the contact information held in a PDA's
address book.
•
Swap Text Files During a Call:
If calling another 4600 Series telephone extension that has an IR port,
text files can be beamed between extensions.
When using infrared beaming the following must be remembered:
•
The device beaming or receiving must be IrDA compatible. This is the
case for most computer and PDA IR ports.
•
The range of transmission is typical a maximum of 5 feet (1.5 meters)
and with a 5° degree spread. (This is unlike IR devices used for
remote controls which typically beam over a long range and much
wide angle spread).
•
For details of enabling and using IR beaming from your PDA or PC
refer to the manufacturer's information. Note that some PDA's can be
set to beam to modems and mobile phones which use different
transmission formats. The PDA may need to be set to beaming to
another PC/PDA for dialing to work.
•
Important Note: Though we have tested these features with several
devices as indicated, this is not a commitment to continually test or support
those devices against future levels of software.
By default, where fitted the IR port on 4600 Series phones is enabled. If
necessary it can be disabled.
1. With the phone on-hook and idle, press Hold 4 6 8 # (Hold I N T #).
2. The phone displays PHY2= and the current status. This is the setting for
the phone's pass-through Ethernet port.
3. Press # to continue.
4. The phone displays IR= and the current status.
5. Change the status if required by following the displayed prompts. Then
press #.
6. The phone will restart.
