Using the Repeater
How it works
An XDECT R005 repeater can extend the range of your base in all
directions, including up and down. The XDECT R005 repeater unit is
also a charger for the accessory handset.
Each handset will automatically connect to the repeater or the base,
depending on which signal is stronger, and the handset operates
exactly the same way whether it's connected to the base or to the
repeater.
The repeaters must be registered to the base before you can use
them. Any repeaters that come packaged with the base are
already registered to that base. For instructions on registering
repeaters to the base, see page 50.
Note: Base range (grey
area) and repeater range
(dotted outline around
repeater) is represented
here as circular. Actual
coverage area will vary
depending on environment.
Your base supports a
total of six
XDECTR005
repeaters, including
any that were supplied
with your phone.
