9.1 Operating additional
units
Additional handsets: Additional handsets are
available for purchase (page 11). Up to 6
handsets can be registered to a single base unit.
Using additional handsets allows you to have an
intercom call while simultaneously conducting a
call to an outside line.
L Additional handsets have answering device
controls printed on their cases, however,
remote operation of the base unit’s
answering device is not possible.
Additional base units: You can register and
operate your handset with up to 4 base units.
Each base unit forms 1 radio cell. If the individual
base units are linked to the same telephone line
then you can extend the operating range of the
system by positioning the base units so that the
two radio cells overlap. If the handset is set to
“AUTO” in base unit selection (page 63), then in
standby mode the handset will automatically
swap to the second base if the range on the first
base is exceeded. It is not possible to transfer
calls between base units (only between
handsets linked to the same base unit).
Example: Additional handsets registered to 2
base units.
Note:
L Calls are disconnected when the handset
moves from one radio cell to another.
