In combination with the BeoLine 2 base, the handset is a 2-line phone, made to handle up to four calls – two on each line – at the same time.

Another advantage of the two-line

system is the freedom to dedicate each line to a speciﬁc purpose, for example, if you wish to keep private calls and work-related calls separate. This is done by choosing a primary line. Choosing a primary line also allows you to keep separate Calls lists.

This chapter tells you how to

switch between calls, place them on hold, combine them in conference calls or Three-Party Calls, and choose a primary line for the handset.

CALLING

Note that if you have an active call and switch to the non-active line without placing the active call on hold ﬁrst, the active call is ended!

If you have incoming calls on both lines at the same time, press a line key to select a line before answering a call.

If you have kept a call on hold for over three minutes, the handset then beeps once every thirty seconds to remind you of the call on hold. A call kept on hold for ten minutes is automatically ended.

Placing the handset in the charger does not end calls placed on hold.

The handset makes it possible for you to handle simultaneous calls on separate lines. The display shows which line is ac tive and whether or not a call on the other line is placed on hold.

Handset … The Handset menu contains four sub-menus:

– Colour allows you to assign the handset a colour theme using the

wheel and OK key. – Enter name allows you to give the handset a new name using the

wheel and OK key. Note that this menu is called Change name after

you enter a name for the handset the ﬁrst time. – Register allows you to register the handset to a BeoLine 2 base. – Handset type allows you to set the handset to be Personal or Common,

Base … This menu contains three sub-menus: – Remove handset cancels registration of a handset to the base. – Open base allows you to open the base for registration of additional

handsets.*

– Change pincode allows you to enter a new pincode for your base and

change the pincode. Use the number keys to enter the pincode and the OK key to store it. The default pincode is 0000. If the pincode is entered incorrectly three time, the handset returns to idle mode.

Phone lines … The phone has two lines, but can be set for use with one

line only. Options are 1 and 2.*

Flashtime … Choose Long, Short or Customized.*

The correct ﬂash time depends on how you have connected your phone. The milli-seconds of a highlighted setting are shown after a few seconds. For more information about the Flash time services available and how to use them, contact your local service provider.

Regarding area codes:

Phone companies have different requirements regarding how to make local calls. The settings you choose in the Area Codes menu are determined by the requirements of your particular service provider. If your service provider requires you to dial:

– 1+area code+number for all

calls… set Dial to Yes and do not enter an area code for the option Area code;

– area code+number for local

calls… set Dial to Yes. For Area code, you can enter up to ten

area codes that fall within your local calling area;

– neither 1 nor area code for

local calls… set Dial to No and enter your own area code for Area code.

This option and area codes in

Call another handset

The phone system allows one internal call and one or two external calls to take place at the same time depending on whether you use one or two lines. Otherwise a maximum of four handsets can be active at the same time.

You can use three different ringing signals to identify calls on line 1, calls on line 2, and internal calls. For further information, refer to ‘Preference settings’ on page 54.

If you misplace a handset, you can locate it by making a call to that handset.

You can call one handset or call all handsets simultaneously. If you call all handsets, the handset that responds ﬁrst receives the call. If the internal call cannot be made, you will hear a busy signal.
