8.1.1 How can I enter alphabetic characters in the LCD configuration
mode?
The EP302 provides a similar input method as a cell phone for you to input alphabetic
characters. The number keys on the keypad can also be used to input letters.
For example, the number key 2 can be used to input “2”, and also letters a, b, c, A, B, and
C. Press 2 once to enter “2”, and press 2 quickly two, three, four, five, six, and seven
times to enter letters a, b, c, A, B, and C respectively.
If you want to enter two different characters that are located on the same key, input the
first one and wait a while (about 2 seconds) before inputting the second one.
8.1.2 How can I have my EP302 powered through PoE?
The LAN port of the EP302 supports PoE, while the PC port does not. So the EP302 can
be powered through the LAN port and the network cable without the need of an external
power supply. If the Ethernet access device to which the EP302 is attached supports PoE,
you can connect one end of the network cable to the LAN port of the EP302 and the other
end to the PoE port of the access device. In this case, the EP302 is powered through the
network cable.
8.1.3 Why can’t I do some settings when the phone is offline?
Many voice service settings of the EP302 are stored on the IP PBX, so operations
concerning setup modification are not supported in offline state.
8.1.4 Why does my phone still display “Offline” or “Logging in” or
“Logging out” after I complete the registration configuration?
Check that the network cable connection is correct, and the account information and
network settings that you configured are consistent with the network administrator’s
requirements. If both items are correct and the problem still exists, please contact your
network administrator for help.
8.1.5 How can I restore the EP302 to default settings?
In step 3 of the phone setup, select 8. Restore Default, and then follow the instructions
to restore the EP302 to default settings.
