Handset Signal Detection
You can monitor the handset signal strength while moving to different
locations. The antenna/signal strength and battery icons appear on the
handset display.
When you move too far from the base station, the following occurs on
the handset:
• the antenna/signal strength icon disappears
•
Out of range... message appears
• handset produces an intermittent beep
• handset may go into scanning mode
If the signal strength is weak, move back into range to stop the handset
display messages and warning tones.
If you go completely out of range during an active call, the call is
automatically placed on hold. For more information, refer to
Hold calls
on page 43. Retrieve a held call by selecting the flashing red line button
when you are back in range.
Note: In cases where the line button does not light when you move back
into range of the base station, press the intercom/line button that
the call came in on, to take the call off hold.
