Using the dual wireless conferencing system

The conferencing pods in the dual-pod conferencing system function only with their associated base unit.The base unit and conferencing pods are programmed at the factory and have matching serial numbers: the serial number for the base is found on a label on the back of the base and the serial number for the pods is found on a label on the bottom of each pod.

There are a few minor differences between single-pod and dual-pod operation, as detailed in the following paragraphs.

Answering a call

• Both pods ring during an incoming call. Each pod's ringer melody and volume depends on that pod's settings. Pressing

ON/OFF on either pod activates both pods.

During a call

• Changing the speaker volume, and muting or unmuting the microphone, causes both pods to change simultaneously.

• If one pod loses its link to the base due to low battery power or being moved ou t of range, the call will continue on the other pod.

Ending a call

• Pressing ON/OFF on either pod ends the call and places both pods into standby mode, ready for another call.

Caring for your NEC Max Plus Conference Unit

• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on your NEC Max Plus conference unit.

• Unplug base unit and conferencing pod from the wall outlet before cleaning.

• Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth moistened with water to clean the outside

of your conferencing pod or base unit and power supply.

Electrical considerations

• Use only the power adapter that comes with your conferencing phone.

• Use only the battery pack that ships with your phone.

Troubleshooting

If you are having trouble with your NEC Max Plus, it might be improperly set up or other equipment might be malfunctioning.To begin, check for the following or consult the chart on the next page:

• The NEC Max Plus base unit is plugged into the proper volt electrical outlet and its power light is

on.

• The battery pack in the pod section is fully charged and plugged in correctly.

• The telephone cord from the base unit is securely connected to the telephone wall jack.

• The equipment the other party is using is comparable in quality to your NEC Max Plus confer-

encing phone and is working properly. While the NEC Max Plus works with lower quality products, the quality of the conference will be impacted if the party you are conferencing with has poor quality equipment.
