PREPARING FOR USE

About ISDN

This cordless phone is suitable for use with Euro-ISDN. ISDN, which stands for Integrated Services Digital Network, integrates the simultaneous transmission of speech and data. With Euro-ISDN you have access to two digital telephone lines. This makes it possible, for example, to have two telephone conversations at the same time or to have an ISDN internet connection with your computer on one line and still be able to make and receive telephone calls on the other line.

ISDN comes with several telephone numbers (network operator and subscription dependent), making it possible to reserve a phone number for instance for business calls and another number for private phone calls (see “Multiple Subscriber Numbers (MSN)” on page 20 for more information). The ISDN services described in this manual are operator and subscription dependent.

Installation

You can install the cordless phone directly to the ISDN network terminal, which may also have other devices attached, such as an ISDN modem or a fax machine.

Warning Make sure the local mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the

power adaptor. Only use the power adaptor that comes with the set.

for

When installing the cordless phone, it is important that you closely follow the procedure below:

1. Insert the battery in the handset.

ercial

etwor

2. Find a suitable location for the base station. To make the best use of its

operating range, put your base station in a central position. You can place it on a table using the desk stand or mount it on the wall using the wall

mount. Due to possible interference, do not place the cordless phone near audio or video equipment.

3. If you place the base station on a wall, screw the wall mount to the wall.

4. Connect the telephone cable to the base station’s telephone socket and to

the ISDN network terminator. Connect the power cord to the power plug socket of the base station.

etwo

5. Connect the desk stand to the base station or connect the base station to the

wall mount. Locate the lower hooks first. For the desk stand, route the cables through the slots at the back.

6. Place the handset into the base station as shown in the illustration. Make

sure that the handset is switched off.

7. Plug the power adaptor into the wall socket.

The red light on top of the base station should now be on continuously. If you see a red, flashing light, there is a fault with the telephone line connection.

for

After a few minutes the handset will subscribe itself to the base station and

the red light on the top of the base station will go off.

8. Leave the handset in the base station for at least 3 hours to charge the bat-

tery for the first time.

When the battery is charged, the handset is ready for use. For more informa-

tion about charging the battery, please refer to “Battery” on page 9.

If subscription fails

Normally the handset automatically subscribes to the base station when the cordless phone is installed. However if automatic subscription fails (the signal strength indicator is not visible in the display), you have to manually subscribe the handset to the base station see “Subscribing a DT200 handset to the 230i base station” on page 29.

Language

At this point you may wish to change the language of your handset.

BATTERY

The handset is powered by a rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery.

Charging the battery. You can fully charge a flat battery by placing the handset in the base station for 3 hours. A fully charged battery gives you up to 15 hours of calling time or up to 100 hours of standby time. Th e handset has a battery meter, which indicates how much power is left in the battery. You will hear a warning sound if there is less then 15 minutes’ calling time left. To keep the battery fully charged, you can leave the handset in the base station

for

without any problem.

Changing the battery. Under normal conditions the handset battery will last

at least a year. When the standby time for the handset becomes too short, you

should replace the battery. Please contact your dealer or retailer for more information.

Warning Only use batteries as specified in “Spar e parts and accessories ” on

page 38.

The battery does not contain cadmium and is therefore more environmentallyfriendly than other rechargeable batteries. However, all batteries should be disposed of properly.
