Multi-unit Operation

Walkie-Talkie

This feature allows compatible handsets to communicate with each other directly when they are in range of the same base unit (common mode, group mode) and even when outside the range of the base unit (group mode only).

Important:

LThe maximum distance possible between 2 cordless handsets using Walkie-Talkie is 50 metres indoors and 300 metres outdoors. Actual performance will vary depending on usage conditions.

LWhen using Walkie-Talkie, talk time is about 14 hours; standby time is about 14 hours. To improve battery performance, turn off the handsets when not talking.

LOutside calls cannot be received while in Walkie-Talkie mode.

Changing the Walkie-Talkie mode

To ensure privacy, there are two Walkie- Talkie modes, common and group. Common mode allows Walkie-Talkie conversations between handsets registered to, and within range of, the same base unit. Group mode allows Walkie-Talkie conversations between handsets set to the same 3-digit group ID. The default setting is group.

Note:

LWhen in common mode, handsets set to “Auto” base unit selection (page 48) cannot have Walkie-Talkie conversations. Either select a base unit number, or change the Walkie-Talkie mode to “Group”.
