Getting Started
Base Station Installation
For best performance, maintain a distance of at least 1 meter (about 3
feet) between the base station and other electronic devices (e.g., TV,
computer, stereo, fax machine, answer machine, cordless phone, etc.)
1. Install base station antenna.
The base station’s antenna port has a
reverse-thread connector
; to
install antenna or cable, turn counter-clockwise; to remove, turn
clockwise. Improper installation may damage the connector.
2. Plug the transformer end of the base station AC/DC adaptor into a
standard AC electrical power outlet, plug the other end into the “DC In”
jack on the back of the base station.
a. The base adaptor’s DC plug is larger in dimension than the charger’s
DC plug. The charger adaptor’s DC plug will not fit into the base’s
DC In jack.
b. The base station’s power supply (DC Adaptor) and telephone line
should be plugged into a surge protector with phone line protection.
3. Plug phone cord into the “LINE” Jack
4. A standard telephone or answering machine can be plugged into the
adjacent receptacle on the bottom of the base station marked TEL
5. To use the Music/Message-On-Hold feature: Connect one end of a
standard audio cable into a radio or audio player, and plug the other (3.5
mm) end into the MOH jack on back of the base.
Multi-base setups:
EnGenius DuraFon PRO has the capability to expand the coverage or
capacity.
Re: For best performance, maintain a distance of at least 10 meters
(about 30 feet) between any two base stations.
Expanding coverage
Parallel connects the telephone lines in each base as below
schematic(i.e. for 4-line base, up to 8 bases), the use coverage will
be several times increased.
