Operating additional units

Additional handsets

Up to 6 handsets can be registered to a single base unit. Additional handsets will give you the freedom to, for example, have an intercom call with another handset while a third handset is on an outside call. See page 3 for information on ordering additional handsets.

Additional base units

Handsets can be registered to up to 4 base units, allowing you to add additional base units and extend the area in which your handset(s) can be used. If a handset moves out of range of its base unit when "Auto" is selected on base unit selection (page 48), it will look for another base unit to make or receive calls. A base unit and the handsets it communicates with is called a "radio cell".

Note:

• Calls will be disconnected when the handset moves from one radio cell to another.
• Intercom calls and call transfers are only possible between handsets in the same radio cell.

Registering a handset to a base unit

You can register a handset to a base unit using the following method.

1 Press (centre of joystick).
2 Select 📋, then press OK.
3 Select "Registration", then press OK 2 times.
4 Select a base number, then press OK.
● This number is used by the handset as a reference only.

5 Press and hold [•••] on the top of the base unit for about 5 seconds, until the registration tone sounds.

• If all registered handsets start ringing, press [•••] to stop, then repeat this step.
• After pressing [••••], the rest of this procedure must be completed within 1 minute.

6 Wait until "Enter Base PIN" is displayed, then enter "0000" (default base unit PIN), then press OK.

- If you changed the PIN, enter it (page 32).

Note:

- When the handset has been registered successfully, Y will stop flashing. If key tones are turned on (page 26), a confirmation tone will be heard.

Selecting a base unit

When "Auto" is selected, the handset will automatically use any available base unit it is registered to. When a specific base unit is selected, the handset will make and receive calls using that base unit only. If the handset is out of range of that base unit, no calls can be made.

1 Press (centre of joystick).

2 Select 📋, then press OK.

3 Select "Select Base", then press OK.

4 Select the desired base unit number, or "Auto", then press OK.

●The handset starts searching for the base unit.

Cancelling a handset

A maximum of 6 handsets can be registered to a base unit. A handset can cancel its own registration (or the registration of another handset) that is stored in the base unit. This

will allow the base unit to "forget" the handset.

1 Press (centre of joystick).
2 Select 📄, then press OK.
3 Enter "0000" (default base unit PIN).
- If you changed the PIN, enter it (page 32).
4 Enter "226235".
5 Select "Cancel Handset", then press OK.
● The names of all handsets registered to the base unit are displayed.
6 Select the handset(s) you want to cancel, press √, then press OK.

Cancelling a base unit

A handset can be registered to a maximum of 4 base units. A handset can cancel a base unit that it is registered to. This allows the handset to "forget" the base unit.

2 Select ☐, then press OK.
3 Select "Registration", then press OK.
4 Enter "226235".
5 Select "Cancel Base", then press OK.
6 Enter "0000" (default handset PIN). - If you changed the PIN, enter it (page 28).
7 Select the base unit(s) you want to cancel, press √, then press OK.
8 Select "Yes", then press OK.
9 Press [✗①].

Note:

- To register the handset to another base unit or to the same base unit again, see page 48.

Intercom between handsets

Example: When handset 1 calls handset 2

1 Handset 1: Press [INT] and [2] (desired handset number).

2 Handset 2: Press [◀] or [◀] to answer.

3 When finished talking, press [✗①].

Note:

- Intercom calls can be made between handsets in the same radio cell, but not between handsets in different radio cells.

Copying handset phonebook entries to other handsets

Phonebook entries (page 16) can be copied from the handset to the phonebook of a compatible Panasonic handset.

Example: When handset 1 is sending phonebook entries to handset 2

1 Establish an intercom call (page 49).

Select "Copy One Item" or "Copy All Items", then press OK.

Note:

• If handset 2 (the receiver) did not prepare for copying, "Copy Failure" will be displayed on handset 1 (the sender).
• If phonebook memory is full on handset 2 (the receiver), "Copy Incomplete" will be displayed on handset 1 (the sender).

Transferring calls between handsets, conference calls

Outside calls can be transferred between 2 handsets in the same radio cell. 2 handsets in the same radio cell can have a conference call with an outside party.

Example: When handset 1 transfers a call to handset 2

1 Handset 1:

During an outside call, press [INT] and [2] (desired handset number).

- If there is no answer, press [INT] to return to the outside call.

2 Handset 2:

Press [◀] or [◀] to answer the page.

●Handset 2 can talk with handset 1.
●The outside call will be put on hold.

3 Handset 1:

To complete the call transfer, press [✗①].

To establish a conference call, press [3].

Transferring a call without speaking to the other handset user

1 During an outside call, press [INT], then press the desired handset number.

- The other handset rings if it is within range of the base unit and turned on.

2 Press [✗①].

●The outside call rings at the other handset.

Note:

• flashes to indicate the outside call is on hold.
• If the other handset user does not answer the call within 1 minute, the call will ring at your handset again.

Walkie-Talkie

This feature allows compatible handsets to communicate with each other directly when they are in range of the same base unit (common mode, group mode) and even when outside the range of the base unit (group mode only).

Important:

• The maximum distance possible between 2 cordless handsets using Walkie-Talkie is 50 metres indoors and 300 metres outdoors. Actual performance will vary depending on usage conditions.
• When using Walkie-Talkie, talk time is about 14 hours; standby time is about 14 hours. To improve battery performance, turn off the handsets when not talking.
• Outside calls cannot be received while in Walkie-Talkie mode.

Changing the Walkie-Talkie mode

To ensure privacy, there are two Walkie-Talkie modes, common and group. Common mode allows Walkie-Talkie conversations between handsets registered to, and within range of, the same base unit. Group mode allows Walkie-Talkie conversations between handsets set to the same 3-digit group ID. The default setting is group.

Note:

- When in common mode, handsets set to "Auto" base unit selection (page 48) cannot have Walkie-Talkie conversations. Either select a base unit number, or change the Walkie-Talkie mode to "Group".

1 Press (centre of joystick).
2 Select 📋, then press OK.
3 Select "Setting", then press OK.
4 Select the desired mode, then press OK.

- If "Common" is selected, the setting is saved and the following steps can be skipped.

5 If "Group" is selected, next enter a 3-digit group ID, then press OK.

6 Assign a handset number (1-9) to be used during Walkie-Talkie conversations, then press OK 2 times.

- This number is displayed by the handset only when using Walkie-Talkie. It does not affect other operations.

Note:

- To set the Walkie-Talkie mode to common mode, the handset must be within range of a base unit.

Turning Walkie-Talkie on

1 Press (centre of joystick).
2 Select , then press OK.
3 Select "On", then press OK.

- The display changes to the Walkie-Talkie display, and the handset's Walkie-Talkie number is displayed.

Note:

• If a handset is outside the range of a base unit and the Walkie-Talkie mode is set to common mode, Walkie-Talkie cannot be turned on.
  ● This feature is turned off when the handset is turned off.

Turning Walkie-Talkie off

Press ☐, select "Off", then press OK.

Starting Walkie-Talkie conversations

Both your handset and the handset you want to have a Walkie-Talkie conversation with must turn Walkie-Talkie on beforehand.

1 Press [→], [←], or [INT], then the other handset's handset number.

● The other handset will ring if it is within range.

2 The other handset user can answer the call by pressing [→], [←], [INT], or any dial key.
