2 Pre-Installation
Before installing VoWiFi Handsets in a VoWiFi system, make sure that all equipments are
available. It is recommended to set up chargers and charge the VoWiFi Handset batteries before
installation, and to have a number plan available for the VoWiFi Handsets. Also be sure that the
IP addressing plan is set up to support the amount of VoWiFi Handsets to be deployed.
We assume that the VoWiFi system is installed including some or all of the following
components (depending on system configuration):
• DHCP Server. A DHCP server allows devices to request and obtain an IP address from a
server which has a list of addresses available for assignment. If the WLAN does not have
access to a DHCP server, a list of static IP addresses is necessary.
• Portable Device Manager. The WinPDM is used for administration and programming of the
VoWiFi Handsets. All settings and updates are in this case done via the DP1 Desktop
Programmer cradle connected over USB.

3 Programming the VoWiFi Handset
This chapter describes how to configure VoWiFi Handsets in two different ways:
• It is possible to configure the VoWiFi Handset by inserting it into a Desktop Programmer
DP1 cradle connected via USB to the WinPDM.
• It is possible to configure the basic network settings of the VoWiFi Handset via its Admin
menu. See 9 Administration on page 30 for more information about the settings that can be
made.
The WinPDM enables configuration of one VoWiFi Handset at the time inserted in the Desktop
Programmer (DP1) connected via USB to the administrator’s computer.
Tip: It is recommended to use templates when configuring VoWiFi Handsets. By using a
template, the same configuration can easily be applied to many VoWiFi Handsets
simultaneously.
3.1 WinPDM
The WinPDM runs on a PC and is used for configuring the VoWiFi Handset as follows:
• Connect a DP1 Desktop Programmer cradle via USB to the computer running WinPDM.
• Start WinPDM.
• Place the VoWiFi Handset in this cradle connected to WinPDM.
For instructions on how to install and use the WinPDM, see Installation and Operation Manual,
Portable Device Manager (WinPDM), WIndows version, 8AL90832AAAAed02.

This section describes the recommended procedure for installing and configuring VoWiFi
Handsets. There are several ways to install a VoWiFi Handset, but the procedures described here
guarantees simple maintenance of the network.
The WinPDM enables administration of one VoWiFi Handset at the time inserted in a Desktop
Programmer (DP1) connected via USB to the administrator’s computer. See Installation steps in
small VoWiFi Systems using WinPDM.
Installation steps in small VoWiFi Systems using WinPDM
1 Create Numbers.
2 Create one template for all settings in the WinPDM.
See 4.1 Installation without Central Device Management on page 6 for more information.
4.1 Installation without Central Device Management
In a small VoWiFi system, the administration can be handled using only the WinPDM.
The synchronization is in this case not handled automatically by the system when a VoWiFi
Handset’s parameters are changed in the WinPDM. When the parameters have been changed in
WinPDM, each VoWiFi Handset must be placed in the DP1 cradle connected to the
administrator’s computer in order to synchronize the parameters with the VoWiFi Handset.
1 Open the WinPDM.
2 In the Numbers tab, click “New“. The New numbers window is opened.
3 In the Device Type and Parameter version drop-down lists, select the matching device
type and the parameter version for the VoWiFi Handset to be use, respectively.
4 In the Prefix field, enter the numbers’ prefix (if needed).
5 Create a range of numbers by selecting the “Range“ option. Enter the start call number
and the end call number in the fields, respectively.
6 Click “OK”.
7 Create a network settings template (see 4.3.1 Create a template on page 8) with the
following network parameters:
• Network settings1(located under Network > Network A, B, C, or D)
8 Create another template (see 4.3.1 Create a template on page 8) with the common
VoWiFi Handset settings applicable to all VoWiFi Handsets (exclude the network
parameters and used security settings). Example of parameters settings:
• VoIP settings2(located under VoIP)
• Software TFTP IP address (if any) (located under Device > General)
• Syslog settings3(if any) (located under Device > General)
In addition, settings for hiding menu items in the display, certain level of ring signal and
vibrators etc can also be configured.
9 Apply the network settings template to the VoWiFi Handset, see 4.3.2 Apply a Template
to a Handset with a Number on page 8.
10 Apply the common settings template to the VoWiFi Handset, see 4.3.2 Apply a Template
to a Handset with a Number on page 8.
1. All required system settings for the WLAN. For example SSID and Security mode.
2. VoIP protocol, Gatekeeper IP address or SIP proxy IP address used to access the PBX.
3. The parameter “Syslog“ must be enabled in order to set the “Syslog IP address“.

• If the VoWiFi Handset has been factory reset or not been configured; in idle mode,
enter 40022.
• If the VoWiFi Handset has been configured; press “Menu“, select “Settings“ and
enter 40022.
2 Set the following parameters:
• Device settings (located under Device Info)
• Site survey tool settings (located under Site survey tool)
• Network settings (located under Network setup)
• Syslog settings1(if any) (located under Syslog)
• Factory reset
4.3 Configure a Handset with a Template
It is possible to select a VoWiFi Handset in the WinPDM and directly change one or more
configuration parameters. By using a template, the same configuration can easily be applied to
many VoWiFi Handsets simultaneously. Templates are also an efficient way to give good
control over which changes that are applied to each VoWiFi Handset.
Templates enables configuration of all aspects of a VoWiFi Handset from sound volume to
keypad shortcuts.
1. The parameter “Syslog“ must be enabled in order to set the “Syslog IP address“.

4.3.4 Save Handset Configuration as a Template
It is possible to save all settings of a VoWiFi Handset as template. Note that this does not
include contacts, certificates and other personal data. The template will only contain
configuration data.
This template can be used as a backup if you want to restore the configuration of the VoWiFi
Handset at a later stage or as a template that can be applied to a number of VoWiFi Handsets.
1 Open WinPDM.
2 In the Numbers tab, select the VoWiFi Handset you want to save as a template.
3 Make a right-click and select “Use as a template...“. Enter a descriptive name for the
template.
4 The Edit template window is opened. By default, all parameters are selected and are
saved when clicking “OK“.
If one or more parameters should be excluded, remove them by clearing the checkbox
next to the parameter.
Some parameters are user specific. If it is decided to apply this type of template to
several VoWiFi Handsets, it is recommended to exclude the following parameters:
• User display text - A text string displayed in idle mode. The parameter is located
directly under “Settings“.
• Phone lock PIN code - The security code used to unlock the keypad. The parameter is
located under Settings > Locks.
• Endpoint ID - The identity/name of the user registered in the PBX. The parameter is
located under VoIP > General.
5 Click “OK“.
4.3.5 Synchronizing a Handset with WinPDM
After installing and saving a VoWiFi Handset, it will be synchronized each time it is connected
to the WinPDM. The synchronization transfers parameter changes between the VoWiFi Handset
and the WinPDM and vice versa as follows:
• If a parameter has been changed in the VoWiFi Handset, it will be transferred to the
WinPDM.
• If a parameter has been changed in the WinPDM while the VoWiFi Handset was
disconnected, it will be transferred to the VoWiFi Handset.
If the same parameter has been changed in both the WinPDM and the VoWiFi Handset, the
value in WinPDM will be transferred to the VoWiFi Handset.
4.3.6 Configure Handset without Saving It in WinPDM
It is possible to configure a VoWiFi Handset without saving it in the WinPDM. An unsaved
VoWiFi Handset do not have the symbol in the Saved column. The settings in the VoWiFi
Handset can be synchronized and saved in the WinPDM later on. However, it is recommended
to save the VoWiFi Handset in WinPDM if backup is needed. For example when a VoWiFi
Handset needs to be replaced.
1 Put the VoWiFi Handset in the DP1 cradle.
2 Open WinPDM.
3 In the Numbers tab, select the unsaved VoWiFi Handset you want to configure.
4 Select Number > Edit parameters.

click “OK“.
6 Remove the VoWiFi Handset from the DP1 cradle. The VoWiFi Handset is no longer
visible in the WinPDM and the settings are only saved in the VoWiFi Handset.
5 Maintenance
5.1 Handset
In an existing VoWiFi system it is important to be able to replace VoWiFi Handsets, install new
VoWiFi Handsets and exchange faulty VoWiFi Handsets.
If only WinPDM is used, do one of the following:
• If you want to install new VoWiFi Handset, see 4.1 Installation without Central Device
Management on page 6.
• If you want to replace a broken VoWiFi Handset, see 5.2.2 Replacement of Handset with
WinPDM Only on page 12.
5.1.1 Upgrade Handset Software
Note: Pay attention to the software Release Notes before changing the software.
The software in the VoWiFi Handset can be upgraded either Over the Air (OTA) via the TFTP,
or the WinPDM by USB cable.
5.1.2 Upgrade Software OTA via TFTP
Software upgrade OTA via TFTP is used in small VoWifi systems. The benefit is that the
VoWiFi Handsets do not need to be collected by the administrator since the software upgrade is
peformed over the air.
In order to upgrade the software via TFTP, the following must be done:
1 If needed, the VoWiFi Handset must be configured in WinPDM to access a TFTP server,
see Configure Access to the TFTP Server.
Tip: It is recommended to configure the TFTP server’s IP address when installing the
VoWiFi Handsets. See 4.1 Installation without Central Device Management on page 6.
2 If needed, a new software information file (packageinfo.inf) and a software (.bin) file
must be uploaded to the TFTP server. These files are provided by your supplier. See the
manual for the TFTP server used for more information on how to upload files.
3 The VoWiFi Handset must be restarted. When the VoWiFi Handset has been restarted, it
connects to the TFTP server and downloads the software information file (.inf) that
contains information about the software version. If the software version differs from the
VoWiFi Handset’s software version, the VoWiFi Handset will download the software file
(.bin) from the TFTP server. The VoWiFi Handset will be restarted when the software
upgrade is performed.
