IP8540 User Guide 

 

 
 

 
 

 

Improved scrolling experience. 

Users can quickly scan and find a contact to call by using the 

improved and accelerated scroll wheel on the device. The new scroll wheel and improved driver 
provide a richer experience and reduce the time required to search for a particular contact.

 

 

Reset to factory defaults. 

Users can now reset the device like any other Mobile device to 

factory defaults by using small pin on back of device, between the headset and USB interfaces.

 

 

Volume settings. 

The device displays the existing volume level as a user increases or 

decreases the volume. Users can change the volume of handset or speaker during the call.

 

 

Change/forgot PIN. 

Users can change the PIN that they use to unlock the phone. The Forgot 

PIN functionality has been introduced to enable users who have forgotten their PIN to unlock the 
device using their password.

 

 

Update password. 

Users can update their password on the device after they have changed it on 

the PC. Note that server will only authenticate the new password when its current security 
association (SA) has expired, so use of this setting is not recommended in this release. 

 

1.2  Device Layout 

 

The IP8540 uses a touch screen to select contacts and configure settings, a scroll-wheel to navigate the 
user interface, and a standard keypad for entering phone numbers.  

Figure 1 below describes the key elements of the IP8540.
