Using A Handset As A Room Monitor - Siemens Gigaset S18H Operating Instructions Manual

Using a handset as a room
monitor
If the room monitor is activated, a previ-
ously stored destination number is called
as soon as a set noise level is reached. You
can store an internal or external number
in your handset as the destination
number.
The room monitor call to an external
number stops after approx. 90 seconds.
The room monitor call to an internal
number (handset) stops after approx.
3 minutes (depending on the base sta-
tion). While the room monitor is activated,
all keys are locked except the end call key.
The handset's speaker is muted.
When the room monitor is activated,
incoming calls to the handset are indi-
cated without a ringtone and are only
shown on the screen. The display and key-
pad are not illuminated and advisory
tones are also turned off.
If you accept an incoming call, the room
monitor mode is suspended for the dura-
tion of the call, but the function remains
activated.
If you switch off the handset, the room
monitor mode is deactivated. You will
need to reactivate the function after
switching on the handset again.

Using a handset as a room monitor

Caution:
– You should always check the operation
of the room monitor before use. For
example, test its sensitivity. Check the
connection if you are diverting the room
monitor to an outside number.
– When the function is switched on the hand-
set's operating time is severely reduced. If
necessary, place the handset in the charg-
ing cradle. This ensures that the batteries
do not run down.
– Ideally the handset should be positioned
1 to 2 meters away from the sound being
monitored. The microphone must be
directed towards the monitored sound.
– The connection to which the room monitor
is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-
vated answering machine.
