Extending the Telephone System
Multiple base stations
You can increase the range of your handset by registering it on several
base stations. It can be simultaneously registered on up to 4 different base
stations. Each base station requires its own telephone line socket. Con-
nections can be used with the same call number or with different ones.
Calls in progress cannot be transferred from one base station to
another.
Increasing the range
Position the base stations so that the ranges of the individual base stations
overlap. Test the ranges of the handsets because obstructions in buildings
restrict the range. Register the handset on all the base stations. Activate
the AUTO function on the base station; . Page 86. The handset then
automatically searches for the nearest base station with the best connec-
tion.
If necessary, you can increase the range of the telephone system
by switching ECO mode off . Page 86
(ECO MODE → OFF).
Mobility through registration at various locations
Register the handset on various base stations at different locations. Acti-
vate the AUTO function on the base station; . Page 86. Regardless of
your current location, the handset automatically searches for a base sta-
tion within range.
