Verizon One Telephone Subsystem
5. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VERIZON ONE SYSTEM
The Verizon One Telephone Subsystem can function in two modes: Standalone mode and iobi mode. In
Standalone mode, Verizon One functions as a standard cordless telephone/speaker device that can be used
in your home or office. In iobi mode, Verizon One provides a variety of voice and data network services
that can be delivered through your broadband connection to Verizon’s network.
If you are using Verizon One in iobi mode, you will perform most of your interactions through the Base
Unit’s LCD touch screen. A stylus pen is provided with the Base and, by using the stylus, you can gently
tap the components in the LCD screen and navigate to various Iobi features. The Stylus, which is included
with your Verizon One kit, is stored in the stylus holder located on the right side of the Verizon One base.
The default mode of operation is iobi. When iobi services are not available because either your DSL Line
has not been provisioned or for other network reasons, your Verizon One will revert to Stand Alone mode.
In Stand Alone mode, your Verizon One telephone system will work as a standard cordless telephone as
explained in this document.
For details on operating your Verizon One in iobi mode, please refer to Verizon’s iobi user manual. The
remainder of this document will only address using your Verizon One telephone system in Stand Alone
mode.
5.1 Caring for Your Verizon One
Please follow these guidelines to ensure the best use of your Verizon One.
• When using Stylus pen (Verizon One in iobi mode), please be sure to gently tap the components in the
LCD screen to navigate to various Iobi features.
• DO NOT use a pen, pencil or other pointed object on the LCD screen as these items may cause
damage to the screen. Always use the point of the Stylus for tapping on the LCD screen and making
selections.
• Warning: DO NOT use an abrasive cleaner on the LCD screen as this will damage the screen. If the
LCD becomes soiled, use a damp, clean cloth moistened with a window-cleaning solution to
gently wipe the screen.
