Absence Handling in DECT
The UPAC keeps track of handsets that have reported absence status. When a message is
sent to an absent handset, the sending module can get information from the UPAC that
the handset is absent.
7.1
Absence List
A list in the UPAC indicates which handsets that have reported absence status.
1
Click “Configuration” on the start page.
2
Select Other Settings > Advanced Configuration in the left menu on
UPAC
Configuration
page.
3
Select “View Absence List” in the left menu. The
Absence List
opens.
The handset identity and absence type, for example “Manual absent” or “In storage
rack”, are reported in the list.
It is possible to manually remove a handset from the absent list by clicking on the
corresponding “Remove” link.
7.2
Clear Absence List
The absence list in the UPAC can be cleared. This has to be done, for example, when an
UPAC is reinstalled in a system since the absence list then will be out of date. This should
only be used as a last resort if there is a permanent mismatch in the system.
1
Click “Configuration” on the start page.
2
Select Other Settings > Advanced Configuration in the left menu on
UPAC
Configuration
page.
3
Select “Clear Absence List” in the left menu.
4
Click “Clear”.
Note:
When the absence list is cleared, the UPAC will consider handsets that currently are
placed in a charger or manually set to absent as present.
