Multiple Handsets
The combination of multiple base units and multiple handsets provides for many
useful applications. So long as all handsets are programmed to the same base unit.
- Any handset can answer incoming calls, and make outgoing calls.
- External calls can be transferred between handsets.
- Internal handset to handset communication (intercom).
Base Units Placement
If you wish to use several handsets with one base unit, you should make sure that
the base unit is placed “in the middle”, to evenly divide the base unit range among
the handsets.
If you wish to use several base units to achieve an extended coverage within a specifi c
area, eg a large home or offi ce, a storage area, etc, then it is important that the range
of the base stations overlap. If not there may be a reduced communication in certain
areas where a handset has no signal from the base units.
Intercom Function
When using several handsets with the same base unit, calls can be made internally
between the handsets, this is referred to as an internal call. Internal calls can only be
made between handsets operating on the same base unit.

If an external call is received while an intercom call is in progress, a tone will be
heard. You will then have to terminate the intercom call to answer.
Transferring Calls Between Handsets
An external call can be transferred from one handset to another (so long as both
handsets are operating on the same base unit).

to the incoming caller.
