DORO X100 INSTALLATION

LOCATING THE BASE UNIT

It is essential to the overall range and performance that the base unit and handset can
receive and transmit good radio signals.

Place the base unit close to: - a telephone network socket

- a 13 Amp mains socket

The best location is in an upstairs room and central to the area to be covered. If you
experience poor range, try re-siting the base unit .

# Do not locate in: direct sunlight, damp or high humidity locations.
# Do not locate close to: electrical equipment such as TV’s, computers, fridges,

etc., or close to radiators, metal pipes or window frames.

WALL MOUNTING

Use the template supplied to mark the position of three holes on a wall. Drill the holes (check
for hidden pipes, etc). Use the raw plug and screws provided, ensuring approximately 4 mm
remain between the wall and the head of the screw. Connect the bracket to the rear of the base
unit and place the complete assembly above the screws and gently push it down onto the screws.

CHARGING THE HANDSET BATTERIES

From new, the batteries must be charged for 8 hours without interruption.

1. CONNECT the power adaptor to: - the rear of the base unit

2. REMOVE the battery cover from the bottom of the handset by applying gentle

pressure to the top of the cover and pushing away from the handset. Insert the
batteries (supplied) observing correct polarity. Replace the battery cover. The

display will show: DORO X100 and the battery and range indicators.

3. PLACE the handset onto the base unit (face up or down) and SWITCH mains

power ON. The base unit will beep and the red LED will illuminate.

4. LEAVE for 8 hours. When the handset batteries are fully charged the red

LED on the base unit will flash. If the handset has been placed face up, the battery
symbol will be present on the display when the batteries are fully charged.

5. CONNECT the telephone line to: - the rear of the base unit

- a telephone network socket.

6

HANDSET BATTERY CARE

AFTER INITIAL CHARGING the power adaptor must remain connected to the mains
& base unit and mains power switched on. It is recommended that the handset is left
on charge overnight to ensure maximum in-use time. The batteries should hold their
charge for 60 hours, depending on use.

IF THE PHONE IS NOT TO BE USED for a substantial period of time, i.e. holidays,
disconnect the mains power adaptor, when power is reconnected it will be necessary

to recharge the handset for 8 hours.

TO MAINTAIN OPTIMUM CONDITION, allow the batteries to charge fully every 4

months approximately for 8 hours. The batteries will need replacing if: there are
signs of leakage, the batteries will not hold a charge for more than two hours.

The rechargeable batteries (NiMh) are cadmium-free and should be disposed of in a
responsible and environmentally friendly manner.

Note: When the handset batteries are fully charged, the handset may feel warm.
This is normal.

IMPORTANT!

From new, the batteries (supplied) must be charged for 8 hours without interruption.
You can obtain your replacement batteries from:
Consumer Support Department, Doro Audioline Ltd, 22 Walkers Road, North Moons
Moat, Redditch, Worcestershire, B98 9HE. Price available on request:

A primary access code (4 digits maximum) can be stored. If you are connected to
two PABXs and it takes one more access code and two pauses to obtain an external
line, a secondary access code can be also programmed.

When using this feature, ensure that the access number stored is dialled as well as
the telephone number.

LEAST COST ROUTING (LCR)

Nowadays, a growing number of telephone operators offer discounted charges on
certain types of telephone calls. To take advantage of the cheaper charges you must
be registered with an alternative operator and often use a special access code before
you dial a telephone number. The X100 can be programmed to recognise a certain
dialling code or type of call and automatically dial an access code.

26

CALL BARRING

Call barring can be employed to restrict use of the handsets and thus to stop users
making expensive calls to international numbers or to premium rate numbers.
Select either to "Bar all dial", which will bar all outgoing calls, or "Bar specific",
which bars the first digits/digit of the number. For example 00 for international
calls.
To be able to set switch the feature on or off you need the PIN-code of the base unit.
The base unit can bar up to 3 (0-2) numbers of up to 4 digits each. Three emergency
numbers can be programmed and dialled irrespective of the bar feature.

DORO X100 EXTENDED SYSTEM

The DORO X100 can form the basis of a multi-handset DECT telephone system
which will allow you to:

P Register up to 6 handsets to the same base unit.
P Register up to 6 base units to the same handset.
P Make an internal call and transfer calls from one handset to another handset

which is connected to same base unit.

P Increase the range of handsets by automatic connection to the nearest base unit.
P Register other GAP (Generic Access Profile) compatible handsets to the base unit.

NOTE: Each base unit must be connect to a telephone line.

ADDITIONAL BASE UNITS

By connecting several base units to one system, the range of each handset can be
extended, but it is critical that all base units are within range of each other.
Otherwise it may be that dead spots occur where reception is not possible. It is
recommended that when a new base unit is located, a handset is used to make a call
and test the range.

It is also possible to locate one base unit at home and one base unit at work, and use
one handset at both locations.

The picture on your right illustrates a
system with four base units, A-D. The
dotted lines shows the range of each base
unit.

If the additional handset has been
registered with the base units and the
automatic connection option has been
selected (see page 20), connection will be
established automatically when moving
from base unit to base unit, but CAN NOT
OCCUR when a call is being made.

29

ADDITIONAL HANDSETS

Adding additional handset to the system allows all users to make full use of the call
transfer and intercom facilities. A maximum of one external call and one internal call
can proceed at the same time.

If an additional handset is added to the system, the batteries must be charged for 8
hours without interruption. The registration procedure (see page 22) must be
performed prior to use.
The registration gives each handset a specific identity number, 1 to 6. This number is
used for internal calls only. From new, the handset is already registered to the base
unit and has been allocated number 1.

DISPLAY IPEI NUMBER

The handset has a unique identity number, which may be required when it is
registered with a base unit of another brand/model.

1. Enter the handset menu.

2. Press and hold the R button until the display shows the IPEI number of the

handset.

30

INTERCOM CALL

When two or more handsets are registered to the same base unit it is possible to call
handset to handset. This type of call is not charged for by your Network operator.

1. Press the INT button.

2. Enter the handset number of the handset you wish to call 1-6.

The displays of the handsets will show the number of the other handset.

3. Press the button on the called handset to take the call.

4. To terminate the call, press the button.

When an intercom call is made, "INT" flashes on display of the called handset and the
ringer sound is different from that of an external call. The ringer sound can be
varied, see page xx.

If a external call is received while a intercom call is in progress, a reminder tone
will be heard in the handset earpiece, the base unit will ring and the in-use indicator
will flash.

To answer the call, either:
a) Press the R button. The intercom call will be terminated.

OR
b) Press the INT button to place the internal call on hold and answer the incoming

call. You can switch between an external call and an internal call by pressing the

INT button.

TRANSFERRING CALLS

A external call can be transferred from one handset to another (both handsets must be
registered to the same base unit).

When an external call is connected, press the INT button. Enter the handset identity
number of the handset to which the call is to be transferred. The external call will be
placed on hold and the called handset will ring. The called handset user presses the
TALK button to take the call. The two handset users can now talk to each other.
The calling handset user presses the button to transfer the call. If the call is not

answered, press the R button on the called handset to retrieve the call.

PAGING ALL HANDSETS

To call all handsets in a system, press the INT button and then the * button. All

handsets will ring until the call is answered.

DORO X100 FAULT FINDING

If the telephone does not work properly, this fault finding section may help. If you
cannot solve the problem check that the power adaptor and the line cord are
connected properly and disconnect any additional equipment. If the telephone works
properly now, the fault is with some other piece of equipment or the telephone line.

INTERFERENCE

All cordless telephones are radio transmitters and receivers and such are subject to
interference from a wide range of sources.

Re-siting the base unit can improve reception substantially. An upstairs room is
usually the best location.

Electronic equipment like TV's, computers, etc. emit strong electronic magnetic fields
which can affect the radio signals. Try not to locate your DORO X100 next to this
type of equipment and ensure that the power line cords are separated from other
electrical units.

AN INCOMING NUMBER IS NOT VISIBLE ON THE DISPLAY

P Have you subscribed to the telephone network ‘Caller ID’ service?
P If "Out of area" or "Withheld Secret" are displayed, it either means that no

information of the number is available or that the caller has withheld their number.

P Is the phone connected to a PABX? Caller display is not available when connected

to a PABX.

THE TELEPHONE DOES NOT WORK

P Is the power adapter connected correctly and mains power switched on?
P Is the line cord connected correctly?
P Are the batteries in the handset charged?
P Connect a different telephone to the same wall socket. If the other telephone does

not work, contact your Network operator.

THE BASE UNIT DOES NOT RING

P Check that the ringer is programmed on.
P Does the total of REN numbers exceed 4? If it does, disconnect other equipment

until 4 is achieved.

P Is it connected to a mains power socket and mains power switched on?

WHEN ON A CALL, A WARNING TONE IS HEARD

P The batteries’ power may be low (recharge the handset for 8 hours).
P The handset may be out of range - move closer to the base unit.

32

NO DIALLING TONE

P Have the handset batteries been charged for 8 hours?
P Is the Base connected to a mains power socket and mains power switched on?
P Is the telephone line cord plugged into a telephone Network wall socket?

THE DISPLAY ON THE HANDSET IS BLANK

P Is the handset switched off?
P Is mains power switched on?

THE BASE UNIT RINGS BEFORE THE HANDSET

P This is normal for all cordless telephones.

THE HANDSET WILL NOT CONNECT WITH AN INCOMING CALL WHEN
THE BASE UNIT RINGS

P Because this is a cordless telephone, the ringing signal has to be transmitted to

the handset which can take a few seconds. It is important that a call is not
picked-up on the handset until the handset rings.

THE HANDSET DOES NOT RING

P Is the ringer programmed Off?

MEMORY DIALLING DOES NOT WORK

P Store a new number and try again.
