Function requirements:
In order to use the functions of the communication system, a portable CTEL (A34/6) must be inserted into the UPCI [UHI] portable CTEL holder (Universal Handy Interface) (A34/15).
Telephone operation function
The telephone system can be operated as follows:
^ Directly at the COMAND operating, display and controller unit (A40/3)
^ Using the multifunction steering wheel, via the left multifunction steering wheel button group (S110) and right multifunction steering wheel button group (S111) in combination with the multifunction display (A1p13) of the instrument cluster (A1)
^ Using voice commands where the voice control system (VCS [SBS]) is installed, with code (813) Voice control system (VCS)
^ Using the portable CTEL
Function
Following a request, e.g. from the COMAND operating, display and controller unit, the Universal Portable CTEL Interface (UPCI [UHI]) control unit (N123/1) transmits and receives the telephone radio signals via the telephone antenna (A2/49a1). If the portable CTEL is being operated, the signals are transmitted via the E-net compensator (A28/3) to the Universal Portable CTEL Interface (UPCI [UHI]) control unit and from there they are forwarded to the UPCI [UHI] portable CTEL holder (Universal Handy Interface). The task of the E-net compensator is to compensate by amplification for losses which occur due to the higher transmission frequency of the country-specific telephone network.
The display of the COMAND operating, display and controller unit shows the reception field strengths in 5 grades when the telephone is operational. All control signals and useful signals (e.g. sound signals with hands-free system activated) are transmitted via the media-oriented system transport (MOST).
The Universal Portable CTEL Interface (UPCI [UHI]) control unit forms the interface between the portable CTEL and the MOST.
The battery of the portable CTEL is charged in the UPCI [UHI] portable CTEL holder (Universal Handy Interface). The battery is charged automatically as soon as the portable CTEL is inserted in the UPCI [UHI portable CTEL holder (Universal Handy Interface), and this irrespective of whether the portable CTEL is switched on or off.
The COMAND operating, display and controller unit has the following telephone functions:
^ Automatic disabling of telephone card when the personal identification number is entered incorrectly 3 times.
^ Speed dial
^ Display of the name of the party being called in the COMAND display (if the entered number is known)
^ Display of the name of the network provider on the COMAND display
