3.3.2 Post-Seizure Dialing (Off-Hook) or Live Dial
Post-Seizure dialing or Live Dial refers to a mode of operation where the user goes off-hook or seizes the
line before entering the phone number or recalling a number from memory to be dialed. This type of
dialing is the normal method used in most corded telephones.
Live Dial or off-hook mode is indicated by a solid block cursor as shown in the example display below:
!:3684467]
Solid Block Cursor
Indicates Off-Hook
In Live Dial the user can only recall telephone numbers from memory. No programming/editing functions
are allowed in Live-dial.
When the user takes the phone off hook without pre-dial digits on the display, the message ‘PHONE ON’
will be shown.
QIPOF!PO
The IN USE/CHARGING LED on the base will be lit GREEN to indicate the handset is in use and the
telephone line is off-hook. As the user manually enters digits the corresponding DTMF tone will be
generated and remain on for the duration the key is held when the dial mode is set to TONE , or, if the dial
mode is set to PULSE, the pulse digits will be dialed. A KEYCLICK will also be generated to acknowledge
the user of the manual entry.
3.4 Using SELECT or PHONE key When Recalling Numbers From Memory
The cordless telephone supports “What You See Is What You Get“ (WYSIWYG) dialing when a user
recalls any dialing memory location while in pre-dial mode and presses the PHONE key instead of the
SELECT key.
This feature allows the user to scroll through any memory recall locations (e.g. CID Recall, Last Number
Redial and Speed Dial) and select the number to be dialed. By pressing the PHONE key when in pre-dial
mode only, the number as shown on the recall display will be dialed exactly as shown. This feature
prevents any dialing errors caused by accidentally leaving digits on the pre-dial display prior to making the
memory recall selection.
If a user wishes to recall a memory location for further editing in pre-dial mode, the user can always press
the SELECT key to recall the number and append it to any digits already entered on the display prior to
the memory recall.

3.6.2 Storing Redial Records
Phone numbers are stored in redial memory only when the phone goes off hook and the call is made. Any
subsequent digits entered after the phone has gone off-hook (post line seizure or live dialing) will be
appended to the number and saved in the redial memory up to the maximum of 20 digits.
If a user enters a phone number using pre-dial and does not go off-hook, the number will not be saved in
redial memory.
Any subsequent dialing digits entered after the PHONE key is pressed (live dialing) will also be stored. A
combination of the first 20 digits whether pre-dialed and live-dialed will be stored; In the case where there
are less than 20 digits, storage will be triggered by activation of a line flash or an OFF key press.
After a hook switch flash, the numbers previously dialed are immediately saved in the current redial
memory location and all subsequent numbers after the flash are recorded in a new redial memory
location.

3.24 Channel Search/Out of Range Indication
When the handset is off-hook and the RF link is broken between the handset and base, the handset
alerter will emit a beep signaling a “CHANNEL SEARCHING..” condition as the handset begins scanning
for the base.
DIBOOFM
TFBSDIJOH///
The “CHANNEL SEARCHING..” indication will remain on the LCD as the handset tries to reestablish
communication with the base. If this is not done within 30 seconds, the unit will display “CALL DROPPED”
for 3 seconds and will then enter standby mode (idle/low power mode). At intervals of 10 seconds, the
handset will wake up and display “CHANNEL SEARCHING..” again as it scans all 10 channels (channels
0 through 9) before blanking the display and reentering standby mode.
Note: Once entering standby mode while in an out-of-range condition, the handset will emit out-of-range
tones at 10 second intervals until the battery dies or the handset is able to re-establish communication
with the base. In this condition, the battery life will be greatly diminished.
If the PHONE key is pressed while the unit is in an out-of-range condition and in standby mode, a
KEYCLICK will be generated and after two seconds the out-of-range warning beep is generated and
channel search will be initiated. The “CHANNEL SEARCHING..” message then appears on the display for
30 seconds. After 30 seconds the unit will display “CALL DROPPED” for 3 seconds and enter standby
mode.
If the unit is within range of the base, the handset will automatically re-establish the link within 15 seconds.
The unit will then display:
