The following sections discuss the peripheral equipment used with the Model 8524/
8525/8526.
Battery Packs
The endpoint will need to have its battery pack recharged periodically. The standard
rechargeable endpoint battery pack gives you two hours of talk time or 40 hours of
stand-by time. Stand-by time is when the endpoint is turned on, but you are not using
it.
If you use your endpoint frequently, a 3.6V 800mAh Nickel Cadmium battery pack
with twice the capacity of the standard battery pack is available.
Indications of Low Battery
The endpoint will notify you when the charge on the battery pack becomes low. If you
are using the endpoint, the BATT message will display and you will hear a soft beep
through the ear piece every six seconds. When you notice these signals you have two
minutes to terminate your conversation or one minute to replace the battery without
terminating a conversation.
To replace the battery without terminating a conversation:
• Press
to place the call on hold.
• Replace the battery.
• Press
, , , and the fluttering line number to return to the call.
When the system timer expires (the default is one minute), the call will recall at
your endpoint.
If the endpoint is idle, you will hear a brief modulated ring signal and the BATT mes-
sage will display. Your endpoint will not operate until you replace the battery.
Depending on the charging equipment you have purchased, you will either place the
endpoint in a charging stand to charge the battery pack, or you will remove the pack
from the endpoint and install it on the Quick Charger.
Setting Up The Chargers
Both the Charging Stand and the Quick Charger use 120 Volt AC current and operate
in a 32°’ to 122° F (0° to 40° C) environment. Simply connect the stand or charger to
an appropriate wall outlet and it’s ready for use.
To insure proper charging and to prevent damage, the battery pack should be at room
temperature, 50° to 80° F (10° to 30° C) when you charge it.
