By using multiple base stations you can extend the coverage area of your
handset.
When you set the handset to automatic base station selection (default), you
can automatically connect to a subscribed base station but you cannot con-
tinue a telephone conversation while moving from one base station to another.
Multiple base stations on one telephone line
To be able to use the handset in a larger area, you can connect two or more
base stations to the same telephone line. The number of base stations you can
connect to one telephone line depends on local conditions. Please contact your
dealer for further information
You need to subscribe the handset to each base station. The handset can have
different internal numbers (1 - 8) on the various base stations.
Multiple base stations on multiple telephone lines
You can also use the handset with multiple base stations in various places,
connected to different telephone lines. In this case, the handset can have dif-
ferent internal and external numbers at different times.
Connecting to a base station
To be able to use a certain base station, the handset must be subscribed and
connected to that base station. A handset can be subscribed to multiple base
stations, but can only be connected to one base station at a time. To connect to
a base station please refer to “Selecting another base station” on page 102.
Your base station can operate in the single-cell (stand alone) mode or in the
multi-cell mode. In the multi-cell mode, the handset can be used in a larger
area in which base stations work together as one unit. It is recommended that
you leave your base station in the single-cell mode unless otherwise specified.
This function is reserved for future use.
