OAI On/Off
SpectraLink’s Open Application Interface (OAI) enables third-party
computer applications to display alphanumeric messages on the
handset display and take input from the handset keypad. Refer to the
OAI Specification documentation for information about administering
the OAI Gateway and the services it can provide.
If OAI is enabled, and an IP address (called the
OAI Server IP) is
available to the handset (either via DHCP or Static IP configuration),
the handset will communicate with the OAI Gateway at power-on,
and periodically while it is powered-on. If you don’t have a
SpectraLink 8000 OAI Gateway installed at your site, you should
disable the OAI feature to preserve network bandwidth and battery
life.
To conserve handset battery life, do not enable OAI unless an OAI
gateway is present and an application is available.
Admin Password
The Admin Password controls access to the administration functions
in the Admin menu. The password must be set in each handset for
which controlled access is desired. Handsets are shipped without any
Admin menu password. Data entry for the password uses the
alphanumeric string entry technique. A password may be up to 32
characters. Type the password and press the
Save softkey. A
confirmation prompt will appear. Type the password again and press
the
Save softkey. If the passwords match, the Admin password has
been set.
If you Save with no entry, the password is erased and the display will
not require it before displaying the Admin menu.

IP Address
