Introduction
This document describes features and settings of the Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset. The i63 is feature-rich
with color display, telephony, and messaging and alarm. It is designed to be used in medium demanding
environments.
The i63 is aimed at users that need to be reachable and that need mobile voice and messaging features.
This makes it ideal for applications where the user needs either one way messaging or to be able to interact
with other users.
All procedures in this document are according to default programmed versions, but additional functions and
factory settings are also included as an attempt to cover all functionality.
Some functions are dependent on the PBX/Call manager and protocol (SIP) versions, and your
system may not support all functions described in this document. For more information about your
system, please contact the person (or department) responsible for the system in your organization,
or contact your supplier.
There are three versions of the VoWiFi Handset:
•
Talker
•
Messenger, with messaging functions
•
Protector, with messaging and alarm functions
The VoWiFi Handset can be upgraded to a higher version via a license.
See 1.4 Functions and Accessories, page 2 for a listing of the functions for each version.
Refer to the Data Sheet, Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD 93277EN for a detailed description of the handsets,
including a complete list of licenses.
Read section Appendix A Safety and Regulatory Instructions, page 93 before using the VoWiFi Handset.
For software download and parameter set up, refer to the Installation and Operation Manual, Portable
Device Manager for Windows (WinPDM), TD 92325EN.

Push-to-Talk Group Call
Applicable to Protector and Messenger only.
Push-to-talk (PTT) provides instant voice connectivity to a group of persons. PTT is a one-way (half-duplex)
communication. To talk, the Mute button
or the PTT button (depending on the configuration) must be
pressed and held down. Letting go of the button gives another person the opportunity to push-to-talk.
TD 93289EN / / Ver.

Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset
The Multifunction button may also be configured to serve as the PTT button. This makes it easier
for users who may have to wear gloves because of dress or other requirements. Because the
multifunction button is larger than the PTT button and found on top of the handset, it is easier to
locate and use compared to the smaller PTT button at the side of the handset.
In order to participate in the conference, the group members must accept an invitation received as a text
message, see 4.7.1 Accept a PTT Invitation, page 27.
If a member declines an invitation, the member can re-join the group/conference later on, see 8.1.7 Re-join a
PTT Group, page 53.
A user can also invite a group of members to participate in a conference call by calling a PTT group, see
4.7.3 Call a PTT Group, page 30.
Every PTT group must be defined in the Device Manager to be able to use this function. Refer to the
Configuration Manual, Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN.

Message Templates
Predefined messages contained in message templates can be used in a number of different situations to
quickly construct a message rather than having to construct the message completely from scratch.
Up to five predefined messages can be configured for the handset in the WinPDM/Device Manager. This
lets the user select and send a message appropriate to the current situation, such as I am in a meeting.
How to use the WinPDM/Device Manager to create and store predefined messages in the handset is
described in the Message Templates section of the Configuration Manual, Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD
93300EN.
Before a message is sent, the user may edit, add, or remove text from the message. For example, the
message I am in a meeting could be appended with – please call back after 1500.
The message template function can be used in the following contexts:
TD 93289EN / / Ver.
34
Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset
•
When a call is received that the user wishes to decline, but still acknowledge with a message, without
having to type a completely new message. See 5.9 Decline a Call with a Predefined Message, page 39.
•
When a text message is received that the user wishes to answer with a text message without having to
type a completely new message. See 5.10 Answering a Text Message with a Predefined Message, page
39.
•
When the user is writing a message using the handset Messaging function without having to type a
completely new message. See 5.2.9 Write and Send a Message, page 35.
A template can be used in different contexts, usually by pressing More, or by answering a question such as
Reply with a message template? with Yes. Then, the Templates menu is entered, and a suitable
message can be selected.
The More key is not displayed if no message templates have been defined.
5.2.9
Write and Send a Message
A message can be constructed from scratch, or from a predefined template that can be used as it is or
edited. The maximum message length is normally 160 characters but may be less depending on the
character set used.
The first character entered is always upper-case, followed by lower-case character. However, this may be
overridden by pressing the *-key before entering the character.
When pressing a key, the first available character for that key is displayed, see 2.1 Alphanumeric Keys, page
7. To enter the other characters supported by the key, press the key until that character appears in the
display.
The keys 0–9,
, or # can be used. Keys 0 and 1 contain special characters, see 2.1 Alphanumeric Keys,
page 7 to see all characters.
For example, to enter the character E, press key 3 twice. “E” appears in the display and is selected after a
timeout or when another key is pressed.
If the system supports UTF-8 character encoding, the input language can be changed temporarily
by long pressing. This can be used to temporarily access characters in a foreign language.
To delete a character, press Clear.

Message Queuing and Message Priority
To notify about new incoming messages, all incoming messages are placed in a message queue. The
sorting order for the message queue depends on the system settings. By default the messages are sorted
according to message priority, and thereafter according to arrival time.
The messages in the message queue are automatically displayed for 20 seconds until all messages have
been displayed. You can extend the time to display a message by pressing any button. You can also close a
message to immediately refer to the next message in the message queue.
TD 93289EN / / Ver.
36
Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset
The messages that are not closed are put last in the message queue and remain in the message queue
until they are closed. They are shown as unread in the message list and are not shown as read until they
have been closed.
See Configuration Manual, Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN for more information how to set the
parameters.
5.5
Message Priority and Call Priority
This feature requires settings in the WinPDM/Device Manager, refer to the Configuration Manual,
Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN.
On incoming calls, the call information dialog is always visible in front of a message by default. The default
can be overridden so that messages with a certain priority can be displayed without being interrupted by
the call.
By setting a call priority, the handset compares the call priority with the message priority to determine which
information is to be displayed, that is, the call information dialogue or the message. If the message priority
and the call priority are equal, the message is displayed.
5.6
Interactive Messaging
The support for this feature is dependent on what model of handset that is used. For more
information, see 1.4 Functions and Accessories, page 2.
Interactive Messaging (IM) is a function that extends basic messaging. It lets a handset user interact with a
server application in the system.
An example can be machinery or equipment that can be accessed from the handset or a personnel calling
application. A list of actions can be included in the message sent from the application to the handset.
An IM is indicated and viewed the same way as an ordinary message, see 5.2 Receive a Message, page 32.
It is saved along with other messages in the message list.
The indication of an IM can differ from an ordinary message depending on the settings in the IM.
The application that sends the IM can determine the alert signal volume.
When an IM has been read, the IM may display several options. Mark the one required and press Select. If
the selected option requests input, enter the information needed and press Ok. A press on the
key
changes to digit or text input mode depending on whether it is digit or text format in the message. A read
message is indicated the same way as an ordinary message.
37
TD 93289EN / / Ver.
Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset
Messaging
If a handset receives an IM update when the original message already has been deleted, the
handset automatically sends a negative acknowledge (NAK) to the system, if requested.
A very simple interactive message can look like the one in Example of an Interactive Message,
page
. The options depend on the configuration in the client application.
Figure 7. Example of an Interactive Message
Mobile data from the handset can initiate the application to send the interactive message, see 5.12 Mobile
Data, page 41.
5.7
Message Indication Repetition
The handset can be configured to repeat the audio and visual message received alert described in 5.2
Receive a Message, page 32. The alert repeats every seven seconds until the user reads the message or
turns the alert off. For the appropriate message settings, refer to the Configuration Manual, Ascom i63
VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN.
Certain system-defined properties can be assigned to a message to give it a high priority, for example, an
alarm priority message. Alert repeats start automatically when a high priority message is received. Such
messages do not need to be explicitly configured to trigger alert repeats. A high priority alert is repeated
every 10 seconds for a maximum of 5 minutes and then the alert stops.
Alerts continue to be repeated until the user presses the hook-on, mute button or soft key for accessing the
message.
Message indication repeat is a system dependent feature that cannot be activated from the
handset.
5.8
Colored Messaging
The support for this system dependent feature is dependent on what model of handset that is
used. For more information, see 1.4 Functions and Accessories, page 2.
Colored messages can be sent to handsets. The sender of a message, that is, an application, determines
the color of the message. Colored messaging can be useful for categorizing messages.
TD 93289EN / / Ver.
38
Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset
In Figure 8. Example of a Colored Message, page 39, there are two colored messages, a new message and

bar behind the envelopes. In addition, a gradient color bar is shown below the envelop when reading a
colored message (right in the figure).

Alarm with Data
Associated Access Point (AP) Location
This function is used together with an alarm. The AP communicates to the handset where the handset is
located for the time being. This gives a fair indication of the location.
An approximate location of the handset is added to alarms sent from the handset. The handset sends the
current and previous AP location to indicate where the alarm was activated.
Alarm with Data
The data can be defined and stored manually by the user. To use the function, one Soft/Hot key/Navigation
key in the handset must be defined as a shortcut to the menu Edit alarm data, see 8.2 Shortcuts, page 55.
The stored data is added to all types of alarms at transmission.

Location
The handset is compatible with both Cisco Mobility Services Engine (MSE) and Ekahau Real Time Location
System (RTLS), which give a more accurate location than AP Location.
Cisco MSE Location
APs measure the client signal strength for received data packets and forward those measurements to the
Cisco Mobility Services Engine (MSE). Your system administrator must configure the handset for Cisco MSE,
refer to the Configuration Manual, Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN, for more information.
Ekahau RTLS
The handset collects information about the APs and their measured radio field strength and forwards this
information to the Ekahau Positioning Engine, which calculates the location of the handset. Your system
administrator must configure the handset for Ekahau RTLS, refer to the Configuration Manual, Ascom i63
VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN, for more information.
This function requires a license.

profiles. It can also be used for temporarily settings, for example while in a meeting incoming calls should
be silent. A user can then switch to his or her own particular profile when using the handset.
If no profile is selected, the normal settings are used.
The settings in a profile can be superseded if the corresponding settings in a system profile are
activated. When the system profile is activated, its settings are not displayed in the handset menu.
However, they can be displayed when a system profile is activated in the handset. See 9 System

System Profiles

System Profiles
Applicable to Protector and Messenger only.
A system profile can be used when certain settings in a handset are required that the user is not allowed to
change. The settings require configuration in the WinPDM or Device Manager and include alarm settings,
soft key settings and presence settings. For additional information, refer to the Configuration Manual,
Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset, TD 93300EN. When the system profile is activated, its settings is not displayed
in the handset’s menu. It can be shown that a system profile is active in the handset by showing its profile
name in idle mode.
The system profile can be used in combination with the user profile (see 8.5 Profiles, page 61). If there is a
conflict between the settings in the system profile and the settings in the user profile, the settings in the
system profile is used.
If a user changes a setting in the handset menu that is determined by a system profile, the menu is updated
but the setting is not changed.
For example, in the left-hand view of Figure 12. System Profile Overrides Settings Changed by the User,
page 78, a system profile has been activated and is indicated by the system profile name Sys Profile
SK1 shown in the handset in idle mode. In this case, the soft key Inbox and middle soft key PTT 4 are
determined by the system profile settings. If a user, for example, attempts to change the middle soft key
name to PTT 5, by using the handset menu Shortcuts → Soft keys → Middle (middle view in Figure 12.
System Profile Overrides Settings Changed by the User, page 78), the soft key shows PTT 5 and the setting
can be saved. However, the system profile settings are not overridden. When the handset returns to idle
mode, the system profile settings are redisplayed, showing PTT 4 instead of the user changed PTT 5 (right-
hand view in Figure 12. System Profile Overrides Settings Changed by the User, page 78).
If the system profile is to be permanently activated, it is recommended to hide the Soft keys menu
in the handset.

System Profile Status Indications
The administrator may configure the handset to play a sound if the system profile is activated or deactivated.
This provides the user with an audible alert when the system profile changes from inactive to active or vice
versa.

Ascom i63 VoWiFi Handset
The feature can be triggered by several kinds of event, such as moving between different parts of a
buildings where a system profile might be appropriate in one location but not required in another. The
system profile name is displayed when the handset is in idle mode. The user should be aware that the
characteristics and behavior of the handset change when the system profile changes. For the exact sound
and characteristics of the handset associated with the activation and deactivation of a system profile, refer
to the system administrator.

Energy Efficiency
Recommendations on how to save energy:
•
Do not charge a battery when the ambient room temperature is above +40°C or below +5°C (above 104°F
or below 41°F). Charging below +5°C will harm the battery and shorten the lifetime.
•
Note that storing Li-Polymer batteries at high temperature dramatically reduces its capacity. For example
storage around maximum temperature reduces capacity with 20% in less than a month, permanently.
•
When extended battery lifetime is needed, set the handset screen saver to the Black also in call option.
See 8.7.4 Display Settings, page 70.
•
The battery lifetime and the speech time are highly dependant on which power save mode that is used.
It is recommended that U-APSD is used to achieve optimal battery lifetime. Other parameters that can
affect the power consumption are Beacon period and DTIM. Location in the system will also affect the
speech time. For more details, see the document System Planning.
•
The handset can be configured to switch off when placed in the charger. When removed from the
charger the handset switches on automatically. See 3.2 Switch the Handset On and Off, page 13.
•
If the charger will not be used for a longer period of time, remove the power adapter to the charger.
•
Do not put the handset in charger if no charging is needed.
