11.5 Additional base stations
The range of the handset can be increased by using several base stations. To implement the func-
tion, all the base stations must be connected to a telephone line connection. Depending on the
intended use, each base station can be assigned the same telephone number or each can be as-
signed a different call number. Pay attention that all the base stations overlap with regard to their
range.
The handset must be registered on each base station.
Please test the range of the handset before starting up a new base station. If a handset is registe-
red on the base station and the automatic base station dialling function has been activated on the
handset (refer to Section 7.6), the handset is always automatically transferred to the next base
station.
