IM and Presence
The AMC enables basic mobile presence and the ability to chat with your smartphone.
Immediately after the required settings have been configured (see infobox below), the
Online/Offline Presence Status will be displayed in the tab "Chat" of the Home screen.
Required Settings
IM/Presence has to be turned
On
(refer to
12.9.1
) and the
Default IM Host
(refer to
12.9.2
) has to be configured correctly on the AMC, and profiles of
XMPP Endpoints
and
XMPP User Accounts
or
SIMPLE User Accounts
have
to be created on the AMCC.
9.1
Adding Contacts
The AMC will automatically make contacts available for chat (subscribe to a contact’s
Presense status) if the email address of a contact matches the configured Default IM
Host and contacts with a valid email address in the IM field.
Note:
Please make sure that entered email addresses pass a validity test, i.e. they
have to constist of the following: [name]@[domain].[xx]!
Most XMPP servers are case sensitive! Please make sure that email ad-
dresses are entered exactly as they are configured on the XMPP server. If
this is not the case, Presence subscriptions will most likely fail!
9.2
Chatting
To start a chat, open the context-sensitive menu in the "Chat" tab and select "New
message". The following screen shows two entry fields. Use the top one to select the
recipient of your instant message from your contacts, use the bottom one to type your
message.
