Endpoint Guidelines
The following guidelines are important for using your endpoint:
•
Placing emergency calls: Before using your endpoint, contact your system
administrator and your local Inter-Tel servicing company for important informa-
tion about dialing emergency services.
•
Using memory cards: Make sure there is only one memory card (PCMCIA or
CF) inserted when you power on the endpoint (see
). If you use both types
of memory cards, remove one card before powering on the endpoint.
•
Powering on the endpoint: Leave the endpoint powered on at all times if possi-
ble. If you power off your endpoint, save the registry first (see
) to avoid
losing your preferences.
•
Setting network options: While you can access network settings options from
the system tray menu (see
), you should not modify them unless your net-
work administrator has supplied you with all of the required information.
•
Installing upgrades: Do not use the endpoint while upgrading the operating sys-
tem. (See
for more information about installing software upgrades.)
•
Saving files and data: Because the endpoint does not have a battery, save all
important files in the Mounted Volume folder on the C:// drive (see below). If the
endpoint loses power, data or files in storage memory are lost if not saved in the
Mounted Volume folder.
•
Saving data to other devices: Because the endpoint has limited storage space, if
possible, save data (files, folders, and applications) to another storage device,
such as a USB drive, a desktop PC, or a memory card. This increases the avail-
able storage space on the endpoint.
•
Setting Inter-Tel Personal Communicator for Web options: Because some
feature options can be modified only in Inter-Tel Personal Communicator for
Web, check your settings in Inter-Tel Personal Communicator for Web before
using your endpoint. You cannot access Inter-Tel Personal Communicator for
Web from the endpoint browser.
