Handset and Base Settings

ENHANCED MODE

Your GIGAPHONE has an enhanced feature, designed to improve sound quality and range. If you are using your GIGAPHONE in an area with interference, the Enhanced Mode feature can help to improve both the sound quality and operating range. Actual range will depend on your environment. You can manually turn Enhanced Mode ON and OFF, or select AUTO mode.

To select the Enhanced Mode setting:

With the Handset in the idle (on hook) mode, press MENU. Scroll to HANDSET SETTINGS, then press OK.

Select ON to enable Enhanced Mode. When the Handset is in use, an ‘ E ’ icon will appear in the upper left corner of the display, indicating that this feature is active.

Select OFF to disable Enhanced Mode.

Select AUTO to allow your GIGAPHONE Handset to activate this feature automatically, when conditions warrant it. Your 2-Line GIGAPHONE is preset at the factory for AUTO mode.

Scroll to the desired setting, then press OK.

You can also activate Enhanced Mode from the Base Unit. In which case, all registered Handsets will have the same Enhanced Mode setting. With the Base in the idle (OFF) mode, press MENU, scroll down to SETUP BASE, press OK, scroll down to ENHANCED MODE, press SET, scroll to the desired setting, then press OK to confirm your choice.

NOTE: When Enhanced Mode is activated, your GIGAPHONE will consume more battery power. This means the standby and talk time of your Handset(s) will be shorter.

RENAME

With the Handset in the idle (on hook) mode:

·Press MENU.

·Scroll to HANDSET SETTINGS, then press OK.

·Scroll to RENAME, then press SET.
