General information
DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone) is a digital method of transmission for
cordless telephones. You can:
- Use up to 5 handsets with the same base unit.
- Make internal calls (intercom) and transfer calls between handsets using the same
base unit.
- Connect (register) up to 4 base units to the same handset.
Additional handsets can be purchased from your local retailer.
ThismodelisalsoGAP(GenericAccessProle)compatible,whichmeansthatthe
handset and the base unit can both be used with most other GAP-compatible units
irrespective of manufacturer. However, the GAP protocol does not guarantee all
functions will work.
Multiple handsets
The multiple handset function has numerous practical applications, e.g. employees in

incoming calls, make outgoing calls, use the handsets internally as an intercom system,
and also transfer external calls between the handsets. One external call and two
internal calls can be active simultaneously. To be able to use extra handsets with a base
unit, you must register the handsets. Registration enables the handset to know which
base unit it belongs to.

is also used for internal calls between handsets. When you purchased the telephone, the
handset was preregistered to the accompanying base unit. The handset has the handset
number 1, which is shown in the display in standby mode. Refer to the Registration
chapter for more information.
If you wish to use several handsets with one base unit, you should ensure that the base unit
is centrally positioned in order to evenly divide the base unit range among the handsets.
