Provisioning the T7406 / 7  
Provisioning the T7406  
This chapter provides specification and provisioning information for  
the T7406 cordless system.  
The T7406 is a Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) cordless  
telephone. The benefits of this technology are: improved range,  
robustness and, less susceptibility to interference, fading and multipath.  
The use of a common wall-mounted base station for multiple handsets  
allows you to position the base antennas for maximum performance and  
coverage. The indoor range of the T7406 is 95 meters (300 feet) in a  
typical office environment. This range may vary with differing  
environments.  
Operational Bandwidths  
The T7406 cordless telephone operates in the ISM (Industrial,  
Scientific, and Medical) 902-928 MHz band. The T7406 divides the  
ISM band into two sets of operating frequencies to allow the  
coexistence of other ISM devices. Examples of these products are SKU  
scanners and remote controls for products such as garage door openers  
and home theatre systems. Note that, since the T7406 is a frequency  
hopper, it uses at least half of the available frequencies in the ISM band  
for operation and can make it difficult for other 900 MHz devices to  
operate correctly. The following table identifies the frequencies used  
for the upper and lower bands of operation:  
• Lower: 902 - 915 MHz  
• Upper: 915.1 - 928 MHz  
These bands are selectable for each base station through dip switches  
located on the back of the T7406 base station. Each base station  
supports up to three handsets. Selection of the correct band for  
operation may minimize interference between devices.  
Operational Parameters  
For example, with a configuration of six handsets, two base stations are  
required (three handsets per base station). One base station will be set to  
the upper band, and the other base station will be set to the lower band.  
T7406 Installation Guide  
       
8 / Provisioning the T7406  
Another example is an environment that already contains another 900  
Mhz device (e.g. a scanner with 900 Mhz wireless connection to a  
LAN). In this environment, only one T7406 base station should be  
installed. Set the T7406 base station dip switch to the opposite band  
that the scanner is operating in.  
Installation Site Parameters  
Physical characteristics of the site where the T7406 is to be installed, or  
has been installed, must be evaluated to maximize the performance of  
the T7406 telephone. Outlined below are some of the most common  
characteristics to be considered:  
• wood vs. metal construction  
• metal vs. wood studs in wall construction  
• thickness of concrete floors and walls (and type of covering, e.g.  
Metallic wall paper)  
• number of floors and walls  
• open office (cubicles) vs. closed office (floor to ceiling)  
• steel partitions, elevator shafts, electric utility rooms  
• RF LANs (Radio Frequency Local Area Networks), extensive  
machinery, computer equipment, and other cordless phones or  
wireless devices  
Placement of the antenna is crucial for enhancing the performance of  
the T7406. Pick a central location and mount the antenna with the  
following guidelines:  
• Attach the base station at least eight feet from the floor.  
• Minimize the number of walls between the base station and handsets.  
• Centralize the location of the base station to make the number of  
interfering walls equal in all directions.  
• Do not mount the base station on an outside wall.  
• Do not mount or place the base station outdoors.  
• Adjust the antenna for optimal transmission by moving it through 90-  
degree angle planes (i.e. perpendicular to the wall, parallel to the  
wall, perpendicular to the floor, parallel to the floor)

Provisioning the T7406 / 9  
RF LANs (Radio Frequency Local Area Networks)  
RF LANs are primarily installed in large chain businesses such as retail  
and grocery where the RF LAN is used for inventory equipment.  
With the correct selection of the T7406 operating band, the RF LAN  
operating at 900 MHz does not pose an operating issue for T7406 nor  
does the T7406 pose issues for the RF LAN with respect to data  
transmission capabilities. However, there may be instances where the  
T7406 user may hear an occasional slight audio click when operating in  
a RF LAN environment. This should not inhibit the user's ability to  
hold a normal two-way conversation using the T7406.  
Telephone-to-Base Range  
The T7406 cordless telephone utilizes an extremely efficient radio  
design to deliver the maximum possible range while complying with  
the governing rules of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)  
and Industry Canada. The effective operating range within a site will  
largely depend on the environmental characteristics mentioned  
previously, such as building construction and internal layout of the site.  
Typically, the T7406 will provide an effective operating range of 95  
meters (300 feet).  
If the T7406 is not meeting this operating range, the following are some  
steps that can be taken to assist with the troubleshooting:  
• Check surroundings for any other product that my be causing  
interference.  
• Check environment for obstructions that may be limiting the range.  
• Change the orientation of the base station antenna.  
• Move the base station to another location.  
• Select the alternate operating band of the T7406.  
It is important to keep in mind that, based on environmental  
characteristics, the T7406 may not be the optimum solution for all  
users. If the desired level of mobility performance is not met, contact  
your authorized Nortel Networks distributor to discuss alternatives.

Some transmission path  
loss will occur when the  
base station and the  
handset are separated by physical barriers, as represented by this  
core area.  
The amount of path loss is dependent upon the number of walls  
and type of material and density of barriers utilized in the core  
area.

Provisioning the T7406 / 13  
Powering the T7406  
The T7406 design has taken into account the need to provide a reliably-  
powered cordless business telephone. The T7406 utilizes premium  
1400 mAh NiMh batteries.  
A fully charged 1400 mAh battery should provide four to five hours of  
talk time in a typical eight-hour day over, approximately, a three-year  
service life.  
The T7406 has been engineered to provide the following talk-time  
parameters:  
• T7406 users should feel comfortable using the handset for an entire  
workday without the need to put the handset back into the charger  
cradle for charging or topping up.  
• Studies have shown that users have been able to get four to five hours  
of talk time from a fully charged 1400 mAh battery.  
• Traffic studies have shown that typical users do not usually need  
more that three hours of talk time in an eight-hour day.  
• If talk times exceed four hours or the product is to see use through  
multiple, consecutive shifts, multiple spare batteries are strongly  
recommended.  
Battery Charge Controller  
The T7406 incorporates a special handset battery charge controller that  
employs a four-stage charging program that sequences charging from a  
soft start to a fast charge, and then to a topping charge, followed by a  
maintenance charge.  
This four-stage charge sequence presents an optimum-charging plan  
that helps maximize the overall life of the battery by managing two  
critical elements in the battery charging process, the charge rate and  
overcharging protection. Note that NiMh batteries do not exhibit  
memory problems and it is not necessary to drain the batteries prior to  
recharging.  
Low battery status is indicated on the handset by the visual charge  
status on the display and/or the audible warning tone.  
The T7406 handset can be placed back into the charge cradle for  
charging when it is not in use.  
T7406 Installation Guide  
   
14 / Provisioning the T7406  
• A fully depleted 1400 mAh battery will be restored to full charge in  
three hours.  
• The handset charge light will turn from red to green to indicate that  
the handset battery is fully charged and ready for use.  
• The T7406 charge stand provides a rear port as a trickle charger that  
charges a fully depleted 1400 mAh battery in 12 to 14 hours.

16 / About your T7406 telephone  
About your T7406 telephone  
The T7406 is a multiple-handset, single-base cordless telephone  
system. The T7406 telephone provides a fully-integrated mobility  
solution for your business. The T7406 handset allows you to freely  
move around your work space while on a call, and still maintain access  
to all your telephone system features.  
The T7406 telephone uses advanced digital frequency hopping spread  
spectrum (FHSS) technology to provide a quality audio path over a 900  
MHz radio link. Establishing a call over a radio link is comparable to a  
wire line communication.  
Note: The T7406 cordless telephone is supported on all Norstar systems  
(DR3 or higher) and on all Business Communications Manager  
systems.  
Radio range and coverage considerations  
The effective operating radio range in your facility depends on the  
building construction and the internal layout of the facility. Typically, a  
dense office or warehouse environment has an effective operating radio  
range of 95 meters (300 feet). An open office environment enhances  
operating radio ranges. Refer to Provisioning the T7406 on page 7.  
Security of Conversation  
Each base station has a unique Security Code (S.S. Code). All three  
handsets registered to the base station must share the same Security  
Code. Each of the three handsets assigned to a base station must also  
have a unique identification (Set I.D. 1, 2 or 3).  
Density and Interference  
For this system to be interference-free, install a maximum of two base  
stations and six handsets per location. Each base station provides three  
independent time compression multiplexing (TCM) line connections to  
the telephone system.  
Each base station uses half of the Industrial Scientific Medical (ISM)  
band for its frequency hopping channels. The dip switches on the base  
station allow you to assign the base station to use either the lower half  
(902-915 Mhz) or the upper half (915.1-928 Mhz).  
P0942257 04  
       
About your T7406 telephone / 17  
Each base station must use a separate ISM half band. For more  
information about setting the dip switches, refer to Installing the Base  
Station on page 21.  
If other devices operating on the ISM band interfere with the T7406  
base, the other half of the band may be used to try to minimize  
interference. In this situation, install only one base station and three  
handsets per location.  
Spare Parts  
You can order spare parts for your T7406 telephone. For more  
information about spare parts, refer to T7406 Parts Lists on page 17.  
For more information about accessories, refer to Optional accessories  
on page 48. For more information about ordering, contact your system  
administrator.

Installing the Base Station / 21  
Installing the Base Station  
This section describes the base station and:  
• how to mount the base station on a wall  
• what programming is required before you connect the base station to  
your system  
• how to connect the base station to your system  
The T7406 cordless telephone operates on the same principle as a two-  
way radio. Therefore, the location of the base station affects the range  
of reception. The base station should not be installed where radio waves  
are blocked or reflected, such as next to a filing cabinet.  
For optimal performance, install the base station at least 2.4 meters  
(eight feet) above the floor. Always position the antenna at a 90° angle  
to the base station.

Before connecting the T7406 base station to your system, you must set  
up system programming for the handset lines.  
Have the system administrator set up this programming:  
1. Program Handsfree to Auto.  
2. Program a maximum of three lines to each handset.  
3. Assign Ring & Appear on the lines you assign to the handset.  
Note: Appear only does not allow the handset to wake from  
Handset Asleep mode.  
4. Set the Page zone to None.  
Note: Handsets can send Page announcements, but they cannot  
receive them.  
5. Set DND on Busy to Yes if you do not want your calls  
interrupted with a ring tone when a second call comes in. Instead,  
the button flashes, indicating an incoming call.  
6. Other telephone programming is the same as for the M7310  
telephone, with the exception of the memory key locations.

Handset Configuration  
This section describes how to set up handsets on a base station. Note  
that there is one extra step for setting up the first handset on a new base  
station.  
Important First-time Installation Information  
When performing the initial configurations on the handset, ensure that  
all the handsets you intend to configure have fully-charged battery  
packs installed.  
Since the handsets start scanning as soon as they are powered, you must  
set the handset ID #s first when you configure the handset to avoid  
conflicts between handset signals and the possibility of one set  
mirroring another.  
T7406 Installation Guide  
       
28 / Handset Configuration  
If you install more than one base station on a system, ensure that you  
assign a unique Security code to each base station. However, all base  
stations have the same three Handset ID numbers (1, 2, or 3), which  
identify the handset to the base station.  
Identifying the Handsets to the System  
Each of the three handsets registered to a base station share an identical  
Security code, but each handset has a unique handset ID number of 1, 2,  
or 3.  
The handset ID number the handset is assigned to maps back to the  
TCM/RJ-11 jack on the back of the base station. The diagram below  
identifies which jack supports which handset ID number.  
Handset ID 1  
Handset ID 2  
Handset ID 3  
1
2
3
In turn, these numbers correspond to telephone records in the main  
system. In the system, these records identify each telephone with a local  
number, referred to as a DN (directory number). Since the records will  
be set up before you configure your handset, check with your system  
administrator to determine which local has been assigned to which port.  
From there, you can identify which Handset ID number should be  
assigned to each handset.  
Note: When a base station is relocated, the Handset ID number follows  
the set DN (system telephone record), if the Set relocation feature  
is on.  
P0942257 04  
 
Handset Configuration / 29  
Assigning the Handset to the Base Station  
When you assign the first handset to a base station, you must send the  
security code to the base station. For subsequent handsets, you only  
need to identify the security code on the handset itself. This is  
explained in detail in later sections.  
This is the general process for setting up a T7406 handset:  
• Identify the handset to a unique Handset ID # (1, 2, or 3)  
Note: The handset ID #, which gets assigned to each handset,  
matches up to TCM/RJ-11 jack on the back of the base .  
station. Ask your system administrator which handset ID  
maps to which set DN on the system.  
• Change the default password for selecting a handset ID (default:  
000000)  
• Assign a Security code (S.S. code)  
• Send the Security code from the handset to the base station  
Note: Sending the security code to the base station is only  
performed for the first handsets. For subsequent handsets,  
you need only identify the security code on the handset.  
• Assign the ring type  
• Assign the ringer volume  
• Assign the language that appears on the handset display
