Internal call waiting

When an internal call is in progress, you may receive another call.

You will be informed of this call by a “call waiting” tone in the earpiece and the  

t

 

symbol will blink on the display.

To answer the waiting call:

Press 

t

 to end the call in progress.

Your handset(s) will ring, announcing the outside call.

Press 

t

 or 

H

to answer the waiting call.

Setting up Baby Sit 

The Baby Sit function allows you to monitor sounds in another room (e.g. the 
baby’s room). Because Baby Sit is a special type of internal call, it requires two 
handsets (of type Onis 6810 or Onis 6816): one left in the baby’s room and one you 
keep with you (the parent handset).  

For detailed information, see your extra 

handset user manual

.

Registering one handset with several base stations

To register your handset with a new base station, proceed as for 

“Registering a 

new handset with your base station”

 on page 27. 

Impor tant:

You can register your handset with a maximum of 4 base stations.  If your handset 
is already registered with 4 base stations, then remove it from one of the base 
stations.

Selecting the base station

Even when your handset is registered with two base stations, it is connected to 
only one base station at a time.  You have to select the base station each time you 
want to change the ‘active’ base station, unless you choose the 

AUTO

 option.

For example, if you are using your handset with a base station you have named 
‘Home’ and you now wish to make a call on a base station you have named ‘Office’, 
you will have to select it before you can do so.   

Press 

R

handset.

Press

.

Your handset will beep to confirm that it is now searching for the new base 
station, or for the closest base station if 

AUTO

 was selected.
