INTRODUCTION

Congratulations!  You have purchased
one of the most sophisticated 

and

unique cordless telephones on the
market.  The VT 1511 has been
designed to offer a new standard in
cordless telephone technology.

Unlike most other cordless phones, the
VT 1511 is a completely wireless
headset telephone.  The VT 1511
digitizes your voice using advanced
ADPCM digital voice encoding to
provide noise- and distortion-free
performance. In most conditions, you
will not be able to tell you are using a
cordless phone.  Gone are the
annoyances of static, interference and
having to listen to other peoples
conversations on your cordless
telephone.

The VT 1511 scrambles your voice
before it transmits.  This allows you the
security of knowing that no one can
eavesdrop on your conversations.

The VT 1511 uses special memory
which is not susceptible to power
failures.  This provides permanent
storage of all memory dial numbers
and security codes.

When an optional battery pack is
installed in the base unit, the VT 1511
uses this battery to provide operational
backup in case of power failure.  In this
way you have access to headset
functions during total power outage.
Calls can still be placed and received
on the headset without interruption.  Up
to 5 hours of backup will be possible
with a fully charged battery pack in the
base unit.

The VT 1511 informs you when another
extension is currently in use on the
same phone line.  The phone will also
alert you when you are Out of Range,
even when you’re not on the phone!
The VT 1511 has a very unique space
design.  When using the headset, you
have complete freedom of movement.
There are no cords or cables to worry
about, so your hands will be free to
keep working.  The VT 1511 Wireless
Headset is a revolution in cordless
telephones.
