Multihandset Features - Uniden XDECT 8315 Series Owner's Manual

Multihandset Features

# To use the features in this section, you need at least 2 handsets.
You can register up to 12 handsets to a base (the 1 that comes with the
base plus 11 additional handsets). However, only 2 handsets maximum can
connect to a call at one time.
You must register accessory handsets to the base before using them.
(Handsets that came packaged with the base are already registered.)
Handsets that aren't registered display a Not Registered message. For
registration instructions, see page 36 or see the accessory handset
manual.
If a handset was ever registered to a base, you must reset it before it can
register to a new base; see page 36, or see the accessory handset manual.
Conference Calling (Line 1 - 3 way)
• A land line call or a mobile call (1 line) can be connected in conference
with 2 handsets creating a 3 way conference.
• To join a call that's already in progress, just press HOME/FLASH (to
join a Landline call) or MOBILE (to join a Mobile call).
• To leave the conference call, hang up normally; the other handset
remains connected to the call.
Conference Calling (Line 2)
A land line call AND a mobile call (2 lines) can be connected together in
conference with up to 2 handsets, creating a 4-way conference.
• First, use 1 handset to dial/answer your first call (by pressing either
HOME/FLASH or MOBILE).
• Then, using the same handset, dial/answer your second call by pressing
HOME/FLASH or MOBILE. The first call will then be put on hold.
• If your first call is via the land line, your second call has to via the
mobile, and vice versa.
• When you are connected and talking to the second call, join both your
calls by pressing MENU/SELECT and then selecting Conference. You
are now on 3-way conference.
• Then, 1 additional handset can join this 3-way conference by pressing
either HOME/FLASH or MOBILE to create a 4-way conference.
• You cannot set up 4-way conference by dialing or answering your first
call on one handset and then the second call on another handset.
• Line conference with 2 outside lines (1 landline and 1 mobile line) has to
be dialed/answered by one handset creating a 3-way conference first,
before the additional handset in your home can join in to create 4-way
conference.
