How switch off the display on Mitel 5340
« on: March 18, 2023, 05:41:59 AM »
I also googled "How switch off the display on Mitel 5340" and this is what I have found:
"Press the blue Menu key . Press Settings. Press Screen Saver. Select the inactivity time, which will activate the backlight switch to turn off."
But on my phone when I press the blue menu key when I press setting, I have only 2 options:
1) Text size
2) About 5340 IP Phone

The same issue about to set time and date...

Someone can explain to me what can I do to set properly the phone?

Thanks.

Your device is in SIP mode, so most options are none existent... Those options for screen saver and such are in the MiNet firmware only.

Honestly, using a Mitel phone (like a 52xx or 53xx model) as a SIP device is gigantic waste of time and effort... Almost no features work, except basic feature access codes and speed dials, otherwise it's a fancy looking single line phone.

You are way better off getting a low end Yealink or Grandstream device, or even a higher end one refurbished, to use as a SIP device... I mean you can get a brand new Yealink T31P for under $50 USD shipped, a refurbished Grandstream GXP1620 for $30, or a refurbished Yealink T46G for under $65 (if you want to be fancy)... Tough to argue with prices like that... And all of them are far easier to configure and use as a SIP device. I love Mitel phones in MiNet mode, but in SIP mode they are kind garbage.
