Java platform and Java file types

Java is an object-oriented programming language. It is not dependent on a specific operating system but does require a special runtime
environment. The optiPoint application module features a suitable environment (referred to in the following as the Java platform). This
technology (J2ME) is also provided on the latest mobile telephones. Therefore you can also run many of the Java MIDlets available on the
Internet, for example, on your optiPoint application module.

In contrast to Java Applets, the archive file in Java MIDlets only contains the programming classes that are actually used for the specific
application.

Each Java MIDlet includes a *.jad description file and a *.jar archive file.

You must always load the *.jad description file to install a Java MIDlet in the optiPoint application module. The *.jar file is installed
automatically with the MIDlet.

For further information on .jad and .jar files, see section 2.3, “Contents of .jad and .jar Files”.

Benefits of a Java platform on an optiPoint application module

The most important benefits are:

Flexibility:

A Java platform enables you to use additional, customized functions on your optiPoint application module without having to modify the
telephone software. You can simply remove applications you no longer need.

Variety:

https://wiki.unify.com/wiki/optiPoint_application_module_How_to_configure_JAVA 1/5
13.01.2019 optiPoint application module How to configure JAVA - Experts Wiki
You can add extra telephone functions (for example, the speed-dialing list in the preinstalled MIDlet), or use general functions such as a
calculator.

Support for standard tools:

You can use the familiar, standardized Java programming tools to create your own applications or have them programmed to meet your
specifications.

Requirements

The following requirements must be met before you start configuration:

The optiPoint application module must be connected to one of the following optiPoint telephones and operational:

optiPoint 410 standard, optiPoint 410 standard S

optiPoint 410 advance, optiPoint 410 advance S
optiPoint 420 standard, optiPoint 420 standard S
optiPoint 420 advance, optiPoint 420 advance S

You can also run the optiPoint application module on optiPoint 500 telephones, but these do not support the Java function.

To optimize browser-based administration:

You should know the IP address of the optiPoint telephone with the optiPoint application module you wish to configure.
You should have a PC with a Web browser that can access your optiPoint telephone (and the attached optiPoint application
module) via LAN. You can also connect a PC (a laptop, for example) directly to one of the telephones listed above using a LAN
cable ( socket on the underside of the telephone).

See section 6, “References” to find out where you can obtain any additional information you need.

Configuration overview

The following table provides an overview of the sections in this document that describe how to administer the Java platform via a Web browser
(WEB) and via the optiPoint application module (APM). At a glance, you can see which configuration options are available for each task.

There are also other methods for administering the optiPoint application module such as the Deployment Tool or the Deployment Service. For
further information on these, see section 6, “References”.

Installing Java MIDlets

The following section describes how to install an existing Java MIDlet (see section 2.3, “Creating Your Own Java MIDlets”) on an optiPoint
application module.

A MIDlet can be installed using a Web browser or directly on the optiPoint application module. Installation via a Web browser is the more user-
friendly and, therefore, recommended method.

13.01.2019 optiPoint application module How to configure JAVA - Experts Wiki
You can also enter an HTTP proxy server. However, this is only necessary if:

You want to install Java MIDlets that use HTTP functions (a Web browser such as Java MIDlet, for example).
Direct access is not possible, for example, due to a firewall.

If this is the case, enter the proxy server via your Web browser or directly on the optiPoint application module, see section 2, “Configuring an
HTTP proxy via Web browser” or section 2, “Configuring an HTTP proxy on an optiPoint application module”.

Java MIDlets can only be deleted directly on the optiPoint application module, see section 4, “Deleting Java MIDlets”.

For further information on starting and operating Java MIDlets, refer to the user manual, see section 6, “References”.

Check the requirements listed in section 1.4, “Requirements”.

A default MIDlet is preinstalled and delivered with the optiPoint application module. This MIDlet is overwritten by the installation procedure
described here.

Installation via Web browser

Java MIDlets can be installed by administrators and users. The following describes the procedure for administrators (that is, in the
administration area of your Web browser).
