User Experience
Optimal user experience requires an understanding of which Spectralink Personal Alarm
features have been activated by the administrator. Users with 8441 and 8453 handsets should
be advised if Running, Tilt, and/or Still alarms are enabled and all users should be advised if the
Duress/Emergency Call functionality is enabled. All users need to know what the result will be if
an alarm is activated, either intentionally or unintentionally. The user cannot permanently
disable Spectralink Personal Alarms or turn it on and off.
The Spectralink Personal Alarms icon on the status bar indicates that the Spectralink Personal
Alarms functionality is active. Colors and shapes signify its status:
= Spectralink Personal Alarms monitoring active
= Spectralink Personal Alarms alarm triggered
= Spectralink Personal Alarms temporarily suspended (if configured)
No icon = handset in charger (or the feature has been disabled by the administrator)
Note: Personal alarm icon for the 8440/8452 handsets
The Spectralink 8440/8452 models display the red icon during an Emergency Call
until the alarm is cleared. No other icon is displayed.
A security application may override a user or the notification profile setting.
The administrator can program the warning and alarm alerts to sound even during the
silent notification profile by overriding the default configuration for the silent profile. See
the
np.xxx.alert
setting later in this document.
The user can suspend Spectralink Personal Alarms running/tilt/still sensing mechanism
for a period of time by selecting the
Suspend monitor
option on the Features softkey
menu. The user may restart Spectralink Personal Alarms before the time elapses by
selecting the
Resume monitor
option. Spectralink Personal Alarms suspend is a
configurable option controlled by the administrator. The Duress button functionality is not
suspended.
