Problems with lost connections are rare, but if you notice an increase in occurrences, your base stations may need to be moved or reprogrammed. Contact your installer to change the base station configuration. (In the U.S. you need to obtain UTAM Inc. approval before making changes to the base station configuration.) For more information, refer to Business Communications Manager Programming Operations Guide.
Note: If you try to send a message from a desk telephone to a portable telephone, the display of the desk telephone shows CanÕt send msg.
