Getting Started - Motorola IT.6T User Manual

1. Getting started

IMPORTANT
Do not place your IT.6T in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Location
You need to place your IT.6T base within 2 metres of the mains power socket and
telephone wall socket so that the cables will reach. The socket-outlet shall be installed near
the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Make sure that it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances to avoid
interference. Your IT.6T works by sending radio signals between the handset and base. The
strength of the signal depends on where you place the base. Placing it as high as possible
ensures the best signal.
HANDSET RANGE
The unit has a range of up to 300 metres outdoors when there is a clear line of sight
between the base and handset. Any obstruction between the base and handset will
reduce the range significantly. With the base indoors and the handset either indoors or
outdoors, the range will normally be up to 50 metres. Thick concrete and stone walls can
severely affect the range.
BLUETOOTH WIRELESS RANGE
Once your IT.6T and mobile phone are connected (see page 20), by positioning the IT.6T
base and mobile phone where the mobile signal is strongest you can optimise the mobile
range. The mobile phone must be within 10m of the IT.6T base. If you go out of range
when making a call on the IT.6T, handset using the mobile network, you will hear a double
beep. If you don't move back into range the call will be disconnected.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
The icon on your handset indicates that you are within range of the base and the signal
strength, the more bars visible the better the signal. If you are on a call and go out of
range, you will hear a warning beep.
The line will hang up if the handset moves out of range of the base. Move closer to the
base. The handset will automatically reconnect to the base.
Setting up
IMPORTANT
The base station must be plugged into the mains power at all times. Do not connect the
telephone line cord into the wall socket until the handset is fully charged. Use only the
power adaptor and telephone line cord supplied with the product.
