Operating additional units
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 33), 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:
L
Calls will be disconnected when the
handset moves from one radio cell to
another.
L
Intercom calls and call transfers are only
possible between handsets in the same
radio cell.
