Line Jack
The line cord should be inserted into this jack.
Out-of-Range Indication
While the set is still active, it gives an audible indication (double beep) and visual
indication (the RANGE icon appears on the LCD display) when the handset is
getting out of range of the radio module.
Distance and Installation Limitations
Both the MDW 9031 DCP single-zone and the dual-zone Pocket Phones can be
installed in a single user configuration or a multiple user configuration with up to
30 handsets.
The MDW 9031DCP uses radio transmissions to communicate. The range
depends on your particular operating environment. For indoor use, intervening
walls will reduce the phone’s range. Try to stay away from concentrations of
structural metal, such as steel and aluminum, or reinforced concrete.
NOTE:
At least 6 feet is required between the radio module or carrier and the phone
system switch.
For each radio module or carrier you install, note the following considerations:
■ The radio module or carrier(s) should not be within 3-feet of any large
metal object and should not have metal objects in the line of sight to the
operating area of the handset.
■ The radio module or carrier(s) should not be within 6 feet of equipment with
microprocessors such as answering machines, personal computers, and
fax machines; control units, communications system switches, or other
phones (especially speakerphones); competing radio devices such as
wireless bar-code scanners; electromagnetic equipment such as electric
motors; or electrical main power feeds, junction boxes, circuit-breaker
panels, fuse boxes, or 220-volt power lines.
■ The radio module or carrier(s) should not share the same power line as
equipment with microprocessors such as answering machines, personal
computers, and fax machines, or electromagnetic equipment such as
electric motors.
■ If your phone system uses an uninterruptible power supply, such as a
backup generator, be sure to connect the radio or carrier(s) to that power
supply.
Follow these additional rules for installing each radio module:
