Portable cellular telephone 

Switch-on/off characteristics of D2B telephone (portable cellular telephone) 

The behavior of the D2B telephone in the D2B ring is only subject to the state of circuit 15 (ignition ON/OFF). Information on the state of c. 15 is transmitted to the CTEL interface (A34/4)  by the head unit (COMAND/radio) via the D2B ring. The CTEL interface (A34/4)  does not have an electrical connector to c. 15 and switches the portable cellular telephone on and off by request of the head unit via the D2B ring or an external wake-up line

When the ignition is switched off the CTEL interface (A34/4)  and thereby the telephone remains switched on for a shut-off delay of t = 10 min. and is then switched off. It is possible to program a different shut-off delay time (t = 1 - 60 min.)

System characteristics 

The CTEL interface (A34/4)  has 3 different operating states.

Switch-on procedure 

  1. Current state: ignition ON, CTEL interface (A34/4)  is in inactive state (power down mode), telephone system is not ready for operation.

    The CTEL interface (A34/4)  is activated (active mode) when:

    • a portable cellular telephone is plugged into the portable cellular telephone mount in the switched-on state
    • a portable cellular telephone plugged into the mount is switched on
    • when the portable cellular telephone is plugged in and switched on during a call (incoming and outgoing)
    • a wake-up signal of another D2B ring subscriber is recognized via the external wake-up line
  2. Current state: Ignition OFF, CTEL interface (A34/4)  is in the shutoff delay phase (idle mode) and D2B ring is in the inactive state (switched off).

    The CTEL interface (A34/4)  is activated (switched to active mode) when:

    • the portable cellular telephone is plugged in and switched on during a call (incoming and outgoing)
    • a wake-up signal from another D2B ring subscriber is recognized via the external wake-up line

Switch-off procedure 

The CTEL interface (A34/4)  is in the shut-off delay phase (idle mode) and the D2B ring is switched off.

The interface remains switched off as long as the portable cellular telephone is not plugged in or a plugged in portable cellular telephone is switched off.

The following cases are possible depending on the state of circuit 15:

When the D2B ring is deactivated the CTEL interface (A34/4)  switches off when a portable cellular telephone is not plugged in or a plugged in portable cellular telephone is not switched on. The interface remains active for the time of the shut-off delay if a switched on portable cellular telephone is plugged in.
