3.6  Linking Additional Handsets

The 

JUST IN CASE

TM

 

 911 Emergency Phone Core Unit includes one Handset 

which is pre-linked to the Base Unit at the factory, so you do not need to LINK 

this Handset.  However, if you would like to place more than one Handset in 

your home, the Base Unit can be LINKED to four additional Handsets (five total).  

Having more than one Handset in your home and placing them in locations 

where accidents frequently occur, will allow you to call for help more quickly 

when and where you need it.  This section will provide you with information 

and instructions for LINKING additional Handsets to the Base Unit.

To LINK additional Handsets to the Base Unit 

complete the following steps:
1.  Press and hold the LINK button on the Base 

Unit for two seconds.

2.  The Green LINK LED Light located above 

the LINK button will begin to blink.

3.  Release the LINK button.
4.  Press and hold the TEST button on the 

additional Handset until you feel and hear 

a “click.”  Continue to hold for 2 seconds.

5.  If the LINK is successful:

(a)  The Signal Test LED light on the Handset 

will 

BLINK GREEN.

(b)  You will hear an audio message “This 

Handset is now properly linked to the 

Base.”

6.     If the LINK is unsuccessful:

(a)  The Signal Test LED light on the Handset will NOT light up.

(b)  There will NOT be an audio message.

(c)  Repeat steps 1- 4 above to retry to LINK your Handset to the Base.
