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 3 for information on ordering additional
handsets.

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 “AUTO” is
selected on base unit selection (page 24), 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:
LCalls will be disconnected when the
handset moves from one radio cell to
another.
LIntercom calls and call transfers are only
possible between handsets in the same
radio cell.
