Multiple Handsets
Up to five handsets can be registered on the base station. Each handset can be registered on up
to four base stations simultaneously.
The standardised GAP Standard enables SWITEL handsets and even those from other
manufacturers to be integrated in the telephone system. In the same way, a SWITEL
handset can be registered on base stations from other manufacturers as long as it, too,
complies with the GAP Standard.
The use of multiple handsets provides the following options:
S
Internal calls between the handsets (intercom).
S
External calls can be transferred between the handsets.
S
Incoming external calls are received on all handsets.
S
Conference calls between two handset users and one external caller.
If one of the other handsets is currently using the outside line, the
icon appears in
the display. It is not possible to make another external call.
11.1
Internal calls
As soon as more than one handset (subsequently abbreviated to: HS) has been registered on the
base station, they can be used for internal calls.
Following example: HS 1 (internal HS no. 1) calls HS 2 (internal HS no. 2).
HS 1: Connection is established to other handset
HS 2: Takes the call
If an external call is received during an internal call, short acoustic signals are issued
and the caller’s number appears in the display, if available.
Ends the internal call
Takes the incoming external call
11.2
Transferring external calls internally
If you have taken an external call on a handset, the call can be transferred to another internal
handset.
HS 1: Connection is established to other handset
If the handset called does not answer, take the call back by pressing the
button.
After the internal call has been taken by the handset called, the following options are available:
11.2.1 Holding a call / Brokering
You can talk to the party using the other handset and then return to the external caller by pressing
the
button. You can switch between the external and internal parties as often as necessary.
11.2.2 Transferring a call
By pressing the
button on the first handset, the external call is transferred to the handset cal-
led.
