Several Handsets; Placement Of Base Units; Intercom Function - Doro DECT 160 User Manual

Multiple Handsets
The combination of Multiple base units and multiple handsets provides for many
useful applications.
- Any of 6 handsets can answer incoming calls or make outgoing calls.
- External calls can be transferred between handsets.
- Internal handset to handset communication (intercom).
- The system allows for one internal and one external call to be in progress
at the same time.

Placement of Base Units

If you wish to use several handsets with one base unit, you should see to it that
the base unit is placed "in the middle", so that the range will be evenly divided
among the handsets.
If you wish to use several base units to achieve an extended coverage within a
specific area, e. g. a large home or office, storage areas, etc. then it's important
that the ranges of the base stations overlap. If not there may be reduced
communication in certain areas where the handsets have no signal from the
base units.

Intercom Function

When using several handsets with the same base unit, calls can be made
internally between the handsets, referred to as internal calls, or intercom.
Internal calls are limited to 2 minutes, and can only be made between handsets
connected to the same base unit.
1. Press INT.
2. Press for a general call (to all handsets) or enter the handset number of
*
the handset you wish to call.
Should an external call come in while an internal call is in progress (2 handset
system), a tone will be heard. You must then terminate the internal call by
pressing INT, in order to be able to receive the external call by pressing
