Note

•• Make sure that all the handsets registered to the base station are M888 in order to have the ECO+ feature functioning properly.

•• When ECO+ is activated, the standby time is reduced. This is because in ECO+ mode the base station is not transmitting any signal in standby mode; therefore the handset needs to “listen” more frequently for signals from the base station to detect incoming calls or other requests from the base station.The time it takes for the handset to access features like call setup, call log, paging, and phonebook browsing is also delayed.The handset will not alert you to link loss in case of power loss or moving out of range.

The following table shows you the current status of the handset screen with different ECO mode and ECO+ mode settings.
