Assigning a wireless terminal as the only piece of telecommunication equipment for providing an individual user with full business telephone operations. The wireless terminal can be inserted into a plurality of different types of auxiliary desktop units, recognize the type of auxiliary desktop unit, and customize the displays of the auxiliary desktop unit to be that designated by the user of the wireless terminal. Each type of auxiliary desktop unit has a plurality of programmable buttons and indicators. The labels for the programmable buttons and indicators are LCD displays. The wireless terminal utilizes these LCD displays to customize the programmable buttons and indicators of the user interface for each individual user when the user's wireless terminal is in communication with the auxiliary desktop unit. This allows the user to receive the same label information regardless of the auxiliary desktop unit they are utilizing. Each user has a home auxiliary desktop unit for which they have customized their user interface. In the case where the user is utilizing a non-home auxiliary desktop unit that has fewer programmable buttons and indicators than the home unit, the wireless telephone unit displays the most relevant programmable buttons with labels. In addition, the wireless terminal unit provides the user with the option of selecting the buttons and indicators presently not displayed through the actuation of a button on the non-home auxiliary desktop unit. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION FIG.
1 illustrates wireless terminal 101 inserted into auxiliary desktop unit 102.
All voice, data, and control information communicated between wireless terminal 101 and auxiliary desktop unit 102 is communicated by wireless terminal 101 to a wireless telecommunication switching system not illustrated in FIG.
1.
Data and control information is communicated between wireless terminal 101 and auxiliary desktop unit 102 by infra-red receiver/transmitter 109 in wireless terminal 101 and infra-red receiver/transmitter 108 in auxiliary desktop unit 102.
Auxiliary desktop unit 102 provides standard programmable buttons and indicators 104, 106, and 107 that are programmable to provide different telephone features and speed dialing.
In addition, auxiliary desktop unit 102 provides data jack 103 which can access a remote computer via a data path through wireless terminal 101 and the wireless telecommunication switching system.
Also provided, is functional display 112 that is utilized for such things as caller ID information, feature procedures, and internet access.
In addition, auxiliary desktop unit 102 provides a battery charger to charge the battery of wireless terminal 101 when wireless terminal 101 is inserted into auxiliary desktop unit 102.
As will be described in greater detail later, when wireless terminal 101 comes in contact with auxiliary desktop unit 102, wireless terminal 101 recognizes that this is its home auxiliary desktop unit.
Wireless terminal 101 then downloads via infrared transreceiver 109 and infrared transreceiver 108 information to configure the programmable liquid crystal display (LCD) labels such as LCD 113 of programmable LCDs, buttons, and indicators 107.
The information that is downloaded from wireless terminal 101 to auxiliary desktop unit 102 was previously stored in wireless terminal 101 by the user of wireless terminal 101.
In addition, wireless terminal 101 is preprogrammed to match the protocol of the user's portable computer.
This allows the user to connect to data jack 103 with the portable computer and enter no information specifying the portable computer to wireless terminal 101
