Operating with additional base
stations
It is possible to build your Synergy 900 into a much
larger phone system with the addition of up to 3 extra base stations.
You can use up to six handsets on each Synergy
900 base station, and up to four base stations
with your handset to build up a comprehensive
and easy to use cordless telephone system.
The handset supplied with each base station is
already registered as
HSET 1.
To register additional handsets to base
stations
Use the instructions shown on page 24, but
remember to start the sequence by pressing and
holding down the blue
PAGE button on the base
station you want to register a handset with. It
sends a unique signal and your handset will
automatically accept it as the next base station.
Automatic connection to different base
stations
If each base station is connected to a different
telephone line, your handset can only make and
receive calls from one base station at a time.
To select a specific base station
For instance, if you are in an area where two or
more base stations overlap, you can choose the
one which is connected to the telephone line you
want to use.
• Press the ➔ button several times until the
display shows SET UP.
• Press the ✔ button. Display shows HANDSET.
• Press the ✔ button. Display shows
LEVEL.
• Press the ➔ button several times until the
display shows
BASE.
• Press the ✔ button. Display shows CHANGE.
• Press the ✔ button. Display shows BASE =
( NO.). This is the base station your handset is
currently registered with.
• Either press the ➔ button to scroll through
and display the available base stations ( 1-4 )
or press the number of the base station you
want (
1-4 ) on the keypad.
• Press the ✔ button. You hear a confirmation
beep. Display shows BASE = (e.g. 1) for two
seconds. The icon starts flashing to
indicate that the handset is searching for the
selected base. When the selected base is
found, the
icon is extinguished and the
display changes to show HSET (e.g. 1 ). This is
your handset number on the new base station.

NOTE:
If you move out of range of the base station, you
will lose the signal along with any current call.
Your handset will now search for the next
available base station to which it is registered.
