handsets
Up to four additional handsets can be logged on to your base station. You can
obtain these additional handsets from your AUDIOLINE dealer with the designation
DECT 4501.
When you use multiple handsets you will have the following options:
-
Internal calls between handsets.
-
External calls can be forwarded between handsets.
-
Incoming external calls are signalled on all handsets.
-
Room monitoring
Note:
If another handset is already using the external line, the message EXT will
appear on all handsets. In this case, it is not possible to make a further external call.
9.1
Making an internal call
When you have connected multiple handsets to a base station, you will be able to
make internal calls. To do this, press the
button and then the number of the
required handset. The call is accepted with the call button
on the handset called.
If an external call comes in while you are making an internal call, you will hear short
signal tones and the message
EXT
will flash in the display. To take the external call,
end the internal call by means of the call button
and accept the external call with
the call button
.
9.2
Connecting external calls to another handset
If you have accepted an external call on one handset, you can forward the external
call to another handset. To do this, press the
button and then the number of
the required handset. After the internal call has been accepted at the other handset,
you have the following options:
A. Consultation / Brokering:
You can now speak to the internal subscriber and
return to the external caller by pressing the
button. You can switch between
the external and the internal call as many times as you like in this way.
B. Forward the call:
The external call is forwarded to the handset called by
pressing the call button
on the first handset.
Note:
Handsets from other manufacturers can also be integrated into the telephone
system by means of the internationally adopted GAP standard. In the same way,
you can use an
AUDIOLINE
handset on base stations from other manufacturers, as
long as these units work using the GAP standard.
