Technical information
Environment
Your Diverse 2016 should be kept free of dust, moisture, high temperature, vibration and should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Do not stand it on carpets or other surfaces which generate fibres or place it in locations which prevent the free flow of air over its surfaces.
Warning
The apparatus is only designed to be operated in a normal office or domestic environment where the relative humidity does not exceed 75%. It should not be used in bathrooms or near water.
How many phones can you have?
All items of telephone equipment have a Ringer Equivalence Number (REN), which is used to calculate the number of items that may be connected to any one telephone line. The Diverse 2016 with up to 6 handsets has a REN of 1. Any other instrument provided by BT may be
assumed to have a REN of 1 unless stated otherwise. A total REN of 4 is allowed. (For example: if Diverse 2016 is used in conjunction with three extension telephones, each with a REN of 1, the total REN is 4.)
Approval
Connection to the BT telephone network.
Diverse 2016 is fully approved for connection to the BT network provided it is used according to the instructions in this guide.
Generally, the Diverse 2016 can be connected to any switchboard supporting tone and pulse dialling as well as timed break and earth recall signalling.
If you have any difficulties, please consult your switchboard service provider.
Note: the Caller Display service will not operate when your Diverse base station is connected to a switchboard.
