Getting Started with the FLX UC 1000 Assembling the FLX UC 1000 The box of the FLX UC 1000 includes 1 Base Unit, 1 Dialer with connected cable, 1 Ethernet Cable, and 1 USB cable. Remove all these items from the packaging.
Connecting the Dialer Once the components are removed from the packaging, turn the base unit upside down. On the bottom of the base unit, there are two areas where you can connect cables to the base unit. The area pictured in the figure below is where the USB and Ethernet cables are connected.
The area pictured in the figure below is the port for the dialer cable labeled “Dialer Only.” Take the dialer cable and push that cable connector into the “Dialer Only” hole until it clicks into place.
Powering up the FLX UC 1000 The FLX UC 1000 is designed to be powered using Power over Ethernet (PoE). If you have an Ethernet port that does not provide PoE, an adapter can be ordered to provide the device with power. Take the Ethernet cable that was provided in the box, and turn the base unit upside down, and locate the area displayed below. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable into the network connection port on the bottom of the unit. It’s characterized by the icon displayed below.
Once connected to a power source, the device will boot up. The lights on the Base will alternate red-orange-green-orange as the system boots. When it is ready to use, the Base will chime and the Dialer will bring up the home screen. Connecting the FLX UC 1000 to a Computer Using the USB cable that came with the device, connect the mini USB side of the cable into the connector identified by the icon in the figure below.
Understanding the Components of the FLX UC 1000 Base Unit The base unit houses the speaker and 4 embedded microphones of the system. It includes volume up, volume down, mute, answer call, and hang-up buttons. On four corners of the base system, there are LEDs to display the call status. During a call, these LEDs will be green when the system is unmuted and red when the system is muted. When not in a call, the lights can be configured for an idle color with options of solid amber, solid green, or unlit.
Dialer There are four categories of buttons on the dialer: • • • • Quick Keys: Menu, Redial, Answer, Hang Up Soft Keys: 4 keys under the color display Keypad: Numbers, Letters, Special Characters on Left Side Directional Buttons & Volume Control: Located on the Right Side Quick Keys The Menu button brings up the Menu interface. While in any menu, pressing the “menu” button will bring you back to the home screen. The Redial button opens the recent calls menu.
Soft Keys There are four selection buttons under the color screen that correspond to the options displayed just above the buttons on the screen. These soft keys are used to navigate menu options. Each button corresponds to the grey box on the screen right above it. If there is no grey box above the button, that button does not correspond to anything in the current menu The Soft Keys provide different options depending on the current screen.
The “OK” and [Select] buttons can be used to enter menus or toggle configuration items, and the [Back] button can be used to exit menus. When editing a configuration item that uses a slider bar, the left and right arrow keys are used to change the value in the slider. Located near the directional keys are the volume control and mute buttons.
User Interface Base Unit As mentioned in the Getting Started section, the base unit provides volume up, volume down, mute, answer call, and hang-up buttons. Mute status will be reflected on the LEDs on the four corners of the device; during a call, these LEDs will be green when the system is unmuted and red when the system is muted. When not in a call, the lights can be configured for an idle color with options of solid amber, solid green, or unlit. By default, the idle color will be selected as unlit.
• Time: Displays current time. Time Zone is configurable in the Menu or Web Interface The user ID is displayed directly under the quick reference bar in the upper left hand side of the screen. The soft keys are available at the bottom of the screen. Refer to this section for additional details about the soft keys.

The list can be navigated by using the up and down arrow keys. From this list, the selected call can be redialed or deleted. This list can be sorted to display all calls, missed calls, dialed calls, or received calls.
