Getting Started
Base Station Installation
There are three possible base station setups:
z Base station alone
z Base station plus telephone answering device
z Base station plus standard telephone
For best performance, maintain at least a distance of 1 meter (about 3 feet)
between the base station and other electronic devices (e.g., TV, computer,
stereo, fax machine, answer machine, cordless phone, etc.)
1. Install base station antenna.
The base station’s antenna port has a
reverse-thread connector; to install
antenna or cable, turn counter-
clockwise; to remove, turn clockwise.
Improper installation may damage the
connector.
2. Plug the transformer end of the base
station AC/DC adaptor into a standard
AC electrical power outlet, plug the
other end into the “DC In” jack on the
back of the base station.
a. The base adaptor’s DC plug is
larger in dimension than the
charger’s DC plug. The charger
adaptor’s DC plug will not fit into
the base’s DC In jack.
b. The base station’s power supply
(DC Adaptor) and telephone line
should be plugged into a surge
protector with phone line protection.
3. Plug phone cord into the “LINE” Jack
4. A standard telephone or answering machine can be plugged into the
adjacent receptacle on the bottom of the base station marked TEL
5. To use the Music/Message-On-Hold feature: Connect one end of a
~20~
standard audio cable into a radio or audio player, and plug the other (3.5
mm) end into the MOH jack on back of the base.
Handset and Charger Installation
1. Plug the transformer end of the Charger AC/DC adaptor into a standard
AC electric power outlet, plug the other end into the “DC In” jack on the
back of the Charger.
2. Install battery pack onto the handset.
3. Install handset antenna.
4. Place handset onto the charger front slot.
5. The phone system is now ready to perform basic functions such as
making and receiving phone calls and intercom calls. No base station or
handset programming is needed for basic operations.
6. Charging cradle may be wall mounted, but an “L” bracket should be
used for support under the cradle to avoid breaking mounting slots. An
“L” bracket is not included, but can be purchased from a local home
center.
Note:
1. Handset(s) packaged along with a Base Station are pre-
registered at the factory. If you have a new handset, you will
need to register the handset with the base station in order to be
recognized as a member handset by the base(s) and by other
handsets. See Handset Registration.
2. Fully charge battery packs before the first usage.
