Multiple Handsets
The international
GAP
1
Standard ensures that SWITEL handsets and handsets from other manufacturers
can be integrated in the telephone system. In the same way, an SWITEL handset can be registered on base
stations from other manufacturers as long as they comply with the GAP Standard.
At least two handsets must be registered on a base station in order to deregister a handset from
that base station. Before registering handsets on a new base station, the handsets should be dere-
gistered from the old one first.
Registering handsets
Up to 5 handsets can be registered on the base station. The handset is automatically assigned an internal
call number following registration. The internal call number appears in the display.

Set the base station to Register mode
Follow the instructions on registering handsets in the operating manual from the external manufacturer. Use
the currently valid PIN code to register (default setting: 0000).
Multiple Base Stations
Your handsets can be registered simultaneously on up to 4 different base stations. DFT707 base stations
can be used for this or base stations from other manufacturers as long as the devices comply with the
GAP
1
Standard. All base stations require their own telephone line socket. The base stations can be con-
nected to telephone line sockets with the same call number and even to connections with different call num-
bers.
Mobility through registration at various locations
Register the handset on base stations at various locations. The handset automatically logs on to the near-
est base station, as long as the Automatic" function is activated.
Increasing the range
Position the base stations so that the ranges of the individual base stations overlap. If necessary, test the
range of your handsets. Obstructions in buildings can reduce the range considerably.
Calls in progress, however, cannot be transferred from one base station to another.
