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 available.

used for registration purposes;
The handset is automatically assigned an internal call number following
registration. 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 by using
another handset registered to the same base station.
Handsets are deregistered via the menu. Refer to Page 84 for the
sequence of menu option selections.
Multiple base stations
You can increase the range of your handset by registering it on several
base stations. The handset can be registered on up to 4 different base
stations simultaneously. 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 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
AUTO
function on base stations;
Page 84. The handset then
automatically searches for the nearest base station with the best
connection.
Mobility through registration at various locations
Register the handset on various base stations at different locations.
Activate the
AUTO
function on base stations;

your current location, the handset automatically searches for a base
station within range.
