Installing the Base Station

This section describes the base station and:

•how to mount the base station on a wall

•what programming is required before you connect the base station to your system

•how to connect the base station to your system

The T7406 cordless telephone operates on the same principle as a two- way radio. Therefore, the location of the base station affects the range of reception. The base station should not be installed where radio waves are blocked or reflected, such as next to a filing cabinet.

For optimal performance, install the base station at least 2.4 meters (eight feet) above the floor. Always position the antenna at a 90° angle to the base station.
