Out Of Range Indication - VTech 900i User Manual

OUT OF RANGE INDICATION

NOISE OR INTERFERENCE
Your VTech 900i cordless telephone
has auto-channel scan circuitry which
will detect excess noise and change
the channel of the phone to reduce it.
This is done automatically.
Since the VTech 900i is a fully digital
phone it does not suffer from noise
associated with regular cordless
phones. At times you may experience
occasional "drop outs" especially at the
extreme edges of the phone's range.
Simply move closer to the base unit
and this will disappear.
AUTOMATIC SECURITY CODING
Every time you place the handset in the
base, your VTech 900i phone randomly
picks one of 65,000 possible security
codes. This allows your handset and
base to recognize each other, and
minimizes the possibility of another
cordless phone usings your telephone
line.
OUT OF RANGE INDICATION
If the handset is moved to a point where
the base and handset can no longer
communicate, the handset will make a
quick series of beeps to signal "Out of
Range." It will continue to make the
beeps at 10-30 second intervals.
OUT OF RANGE WHEN PHONE IS
ON
If you are presently engaged in a phone
conversation move closer to the base.
If the base unit does not communicate
with the handset within 30 seconds of
losing contact it will automatically hang
up.
OUT OF RANGE WHEN PHONE IS
OFF
If the phone is OFF, the handset and
base still monitor each other to make
sure that they can communicate. If the
handset is moved out of range, the
handset will make a series of beeps at
10-30 second intervals. This tells you
that the handset may not ring for
incoming calls.
If you wish to stop the "Out of Range"
tones, simply press and hold any
number key on the handset until the
handset beeps an acknowledgment.
The handset will not work until the
handset is brought closer to the base.
The base unit will continue to function
during this time.
When the base unit is unplugged
from the power supply, the handset
will begin to give the "Out of Range"
warning beeps. This will continue until
the base is powered again and the
handset is placed into the base cradle
for re-initialization. If you wish to turn
off the "Out of Range" beeping, simply
press any key on the handset and
hold until the handset beeps an
acknowledgment.
