The internationally approved
GAP
1
standard regulates the compatibility of handsets and base stations from
different manufacturers. As a result, it is possible to integrate SWITEL devices and devices from other
manufacturers together in one telephone system. It is possible, however, that some functions are not avail-
able.
Multiple handsets
Up to 4 handsets can be registered on the base station.
Registering handsets
Before starting with the registration process for a handset, switch the base station to Registration mode.
3 sec
,
Activate Registration mode
Now register the handset,
The currently valid PIN code is used for registration purposes,
Following registration, the handset is automatically assigned an internal call number. The internal call
number appears in the display.
To register handsets from other manufacturers, please refer to the operating manual supplied with
them.
Deregistering handsets
A handset can only be deregistered from a base station using another handset registered to that
base station.
Handsets are deregistered via the menu. Refer to Page 106 for the sequence of option selections.
Multiple base stations
You can increase the range of your handset by registering it on several base stations. It can be simulta-
neously registered on up to 4 different base stations. Each base station requires its own telephone line
socket. Connections can be used with the same call number or with different ones.
Calls in progress, however, cannot be transferred from one base station to another.
Increasing the range
Position the base stations so that the ranges of the individual base stations overlap. Test the ranges of the
handsets because obstructions in buildings restrict the range. Register the handset on all the base stations.
Activate the
SELECT BASE AUTO
option for the automatic selection of a base station,
Page 107. The
handset automatically searches for the nearest base station providing the best connection.
Mobility through registration at various locations
Register the handset on various base stations at different locations. Activate the
SELECT BASE AUTO
option for the automatic selection of a base station,
Page 107. Regardless of your current location, the
handset automatically searches for a base station within range.
