Important information
The distybox is a DECT-standard cordless adapter for universal usage
when operating analogue terminals on GAP-compatible DECT systems.
Essentially a "cordless extension cable", the distybox eliminates the need
for complicated cabling work and can be registered on any standard
DECT/GAP base station just like an extra cordless handset. The distybox
can be used to connect analogue telephones, fax machines, answering
machines, entrance intercoms and modems to your DECT base station.
The device must use DTMF dialling (voice frequency signalling); terminals
that only support pulse dialling cannot be used on the distybox. If your
device uses pulse dialling, please check if it can also be switched over to
DTMF dialling.
The distybox 300 features an integrated aerial and has a standard DECT
range of up to 30 m indoors and up to 300 m out of doors.
An external aerial must be connected to the distybox 5000. Much greater
distances may be covered, depending on the base station used, the aerial
and the general environmental conditions. By using an external aerial on
the base station or a DECT repeater with an external directional aerial, a
maximum range of up to 10 km can be attained.
To ensure optimal operation on different base stations, it may be necessa-
ry to modify the distybox by setting various parameters on the base stati-
on. For more information, see the "Programming mode" chapter. The va-
rying functionalities of different base stations may, in turn, result in variati-
ons in operation. Please observe the instructions for operating your base
station.
The factory setting on the distybox is for operation on a base station with
an ISDN connection, which means that in many cases it will not require
any further modification. For operation on base stations with an analogue
telephone connection, you will need to switch over parameter 40 in
programming mode.
