NOISE OR INTERFERENCE
YourVTech VT1900cordless 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 VT1900 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
Your VTech VT1900 phone is
programmed with a digital security
code, which is factory set from 16.8
million possible codes. This unique
security code allows your handset and
base to recognize each other, and
minimizes the possibility of another
cordless phone using your telephone
line.
