Multi-unit Operation

Operating additional units

Additional handsets

Up to 6 handsets can be registered to a single base unit. Additional handsets will give you the freedom to, for example, have an intercom call with another handset while a third handset is on an outside call. See page 6 for information on ordering additional handsets.

Important:

L The additional handset model recommended for use with this unit is noted on page 6. If other model handset is used, certain operations (handset settings, base unit settings, etc.) may not be available.

Additional base units

Handsets can be registered to up to 4 base units, allowing you to add additional base units and extend the area in which your handset(s) can be used. If a handset moves out of range of its base unit when Autois selected on base unit selection (page 59), it will look for another base unit to make or receive calls. A base unit and the handsets it communicates with is called a “radio cell”.

Note:

L Calls will be disconnected when the handset moves from one radio cell to another.

L Intercom calls and call transfers are only possible between handsets in the same radio cell.

Registering a handset to a base unit

To register an additional handset to a base unit (easy registration)

The included handset and base unit are preregistered. After purchasing an additional handset, register it to the base unit. Ensure that the additional handset is switched on. If it is not on, press and hold {ih} for few seconds to turn the handset on.

1Lift the additional handset and press {ih} to put the handset in standby mode.

2Press and hold {x} on the base unit for about 3 seconds, until the registration tone sounds.

3Place the additional handset on the base unit. The registration tone continues to sound. With the handset still on the base unit, wait until a confirmation tone sounds and w stops flashing.

Note:

L If an error tone sounds, or if w is still flashing, register the handset manually (manual registration; page 58).

L Charge the batteries of your additional handset for about 7 hours before initial use.

L This registration method cannot be used for handsets that have already been registered to a base unit. Register the handset manually (manual registration; page 58).
