Getting Started

Before you begin

Internet calling

To make and receive Internet calls,
you must install software provided
on the enclosed CD-ROM (see page

9).

Telephone operating range

This cordless telephone operates
with the maximum power allowed
by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). Even so, this
handset and base can communicate
over only a certain distance —
which can vary with the locations of
the base and handset, the weather,
and the construction of your home
or office.

If you receive a call while you are
out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call
might not connect when you press

CALL. Move closer to the base, then

press CALL to answer the call.

If you move out of range during a
phone conversation, you might hear
noise or interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the base.

If you move out of range without
pressing OFF, your phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone
base, periodically pressing OFF until
the call is disconnected.

About Caller Identification

Caller ID with Call Waiting features
let you see who’s calling before you
answer the phone, even when

you’re on another call. (This feature
works only with standard calls, not
Internet calls, and requires services
provided by your local telephone
company.)

Contact your telephone service
provider if:

• You have both Caller ID and Call
Waiting, but as separate services
(you may need combined service)

• You have only Caller ID service,
or only Call Waiting service

• You don’t subscribe to any Caller
ID or Call Waiting services.

You can use this phone with regular
Caller ID service, and you can use its
other features without subscribing to
either Caller ID or combined Caller
ID with Call Waiting service. There
may be fees for these services, and
they may not be available in all areas.

Caller ID features will work only if
both you and the caller are in areas
offering Caller ID service, and if both
telephone companies use compati­ble equipment.

See Caller ID Operation, beginning
on page 22, for more details about
how these features work.

Battery installation & charging

After installation, place the handset in the base and allow to charge for 15 hours
before use. Note: The screen will be blank until the batteries are charged enough to
activate it. You can keep batteries charged by placing the handset in the base after
each use. When batteries are fully depleted, a full recharge takes 15 hours.

Press here and pull down
to remove cover

Insert supplied

Place handset in base to charge
for 15 hours before first use.

Low battery indicator

when this symbol appears. (Handset
will beep when battery is low.)

Caution: Do not use alkaline
batteries. Use only the

batteries that came with your
phone, or contact our Customer
Support Center to order
additional batteries.

Caller ID Logs

Caller ID Logs

How Caller ID works

If you subscribe to Caller ID service provided by
your local phone company, information about each
caller will be displayed after the first or second ring.

Calls received by all handsets are stored in a shared
call log that can store 50 entries. You can review the
log to find out who has called, return the call with­out dialing, or copy the caller’s name and number
into your phonebook.

After the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to
make room for new entries.

If you answer a call before the information appears
on the screen, it will not be saved in your call log.

About names

Names of callers will be displayed only if this informa­tion is provided by your local telephone company.

If the telephone number of the person calling match­es a number in your phonebook, the name that
appears on screen will match the name as you
entered it into your phonebook.

(Example: If “Christine Smith” calls, her name will
appear as “Chris” if this is how you entered it into
your phonebook.)

If someone in your Internet contact list is currently
online, a checkmark will be displayed after the name
in your call log.

Adding new handsets

Your telephone can accommodate up to 4 cordless
handsets. You can add new handsets (sold separately)
at any time.

Before using a new handset, you must first install and
charge the batteries for 15 hours (see page 7).

After the batteries are fully charged, follow the pro­cedure below to register the handset to the base.

1 Select MENU.

2 Highlight "Register," then select OK. The screen

will display, "Search Base".

Appendix

28

Appendix

If you hear
noise or
interference
during a call

• You may be out of range. Move the handset closer to the base.

• Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause
interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet.

• The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating
range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an
upper floor.

• If the buttons don’t work, try placing the handset in the base for at
least 15 seconds.

• Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded tele­phone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your
wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.

Phone does
not ring

• If only Internet calls do not ring, make sure your computer is on,
connected to the Internet, and all required software is running.

• Make sure the ringer for the non-ringing line is on (see page 15).

• Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in
properly (see page 5).

• Move the handset closer to the base.

• You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.

Handset does
not work

• If the error message “Not Registered” is displayed, return the handset
to the base. If the error message remains after 60 seconds, you will
have to manually re-register the handset (see next page).

In case of difficulty

Intercom or call
transfer does
not work

• Intercom and call transfer features cannot be used when both
Internet and standard telephone lines are in use. Try again when one
line is free.

Wrong date
or time

• The telephone’s date and time are taken from your PC. Make sure
your PC is set to the correct time and date and configure the
USB7200 to use the Automatic Time Setting (see page 16).

NOTE:

The term “base” above refers to the telephone base, not the charger provided with expansion handsets.

In case of difficulty

FCC Part 15

Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit
not expressly approved by the party responsi­ble for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.

The equipment has been tested and found to
comply with part 15 of the FCC rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable pro­tection against harmful interference in a resi­dential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful inter­ference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equip­ment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be deter­mined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try and correct the
interference by one or more of the following
measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet or on
a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.

FCC and ACTA Information

If this equipment was approved for connec­tion to the telephone network prior to July 23,
2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) rules. If
the equipment was approved after that date,
it complies with the Part 68 rules and with
Technical Requirements for Connection of
Equipment to the Telephone Network adopted
by the Administrative Council for Terminal
Attachments (ACTA). We are required to pro­vide you with the following information.

1. Product identifier and REN information

The label on the back or bottom of this equip­ment contains, among other things, an identi­fier indicating product approval and the
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). This infor­mation must be provided to your local tele­phone company upon request. For equipment
approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product
identifier is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg
No.” and the REN is listed separately. For
equipment approved after that date, the prod­uct identifier is preceded by “US” and a colon
(:), and the REN is encoded in the product
identifier without a decimal point as the sixth
and seventh characters following the colon.
For example, the product identifier
US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ would indicate a REN
of 0.3.

The REN is used to determine how many
devices you may connect to your telephone
line and still have them ring when you are
called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of
all RENs should be five (5.0) or less. For more
information, please contact your local tele­phone company.

FCC, ACTA and IC regulations

2. Connection and use with the nation­wide telephone network

The plug and jack used to connect this equip­ment to the premises wiring and the tele­phone network must comply with the applica­ble Part 68 rules and technical requirements
adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone
cord and modular plug is provided with this
product. It is designed to be connected to a
compatible modular jack that is also compli­ant. An RJ11 jack should normally be used for
connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack
for two lines. See Installation Instructions in
this user’s manual. This equipment may not
be used with Coin Telephone Lines or with
Party Lines. [Connection to Party Line service
is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state
public utility commission, public service com­mission or corporation commission for infor­mation.] If you have specially wired alarm dial­ing equipment connected to your telephone
line, ensure the connection of this equipment
does not disable your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone company
or a qualified installer.

3. Repair instructions

If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be
unplugged from the modular jack until the
problem has been corrected. Repairs to this
telephone equipment can only be made by
the manufacturer or its authorized agents. For
repair procedures, follow the instructions out­lined under the Limited Warranty.

4. Rights of the telephone company

If this equipment is causing harm to the tele­phone network, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue your telephone ser­vice. The telephone company is required to
notify you before interrupting service. If
advance notice is not practical, you will be
notified as soon as possible. You will be given
the opportunity to correct the problem and
the telephone company is required to inform
you of your right to file a complaint with the
FCC. Your telephone company may make
changes in its facilities, equipment, operation,
or procedures that could affect the proper
functioning of this product. The telephone
company is required to notify you if such
changes are planned.

5. Hearing aid compatibility

If this product is equipped with a corded or
cordless handset, it is hearing aid compatible.

6. Programming/testing of emergency
numbers

If this product has memory dialing locations,
you may choose to store police, fire depart­ment and emergency medical service tele­phone numbers in these locations. If you do,
please keep three things in mind:

a. We recommend that you also write the tele­phone number on the directory card, so that
you can still dial the emergency number man­ually if the memory dialing feature doesn’t
work.

b. This feature is provided only as a conve­nience, and the manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for customer reliance upon the
memory feature.

c. Testing the emergency telephone numbers
you have stored is not recommended.
However, if you do make a call to an emer­gency number:

• You must remain on the line and briefly
explain the reason for the call before hanging
up.

• Programming/testing of emergency num­bers should be performed during off-peak
hours, such as in the early morning or late
evening, when the emergency services tend
to be less busy.

7. Electrical safety advisory

It is advisable to install a safety approved AC
surge arrester in the AC outlet to which this
device is connected. This is to avoid equip­ment damage by local lightning strikes or
other electrical surges.

Appendix

IC (Industry Canada)

This telephone is registered for use in
Canada.

The term “IC:” before the radio certification
number only signifies that Industry Canada
technical specifications were met.

Notice: This equipment meets the applicable
Industry Canada Terminal Equipment
Technical Specifications. This is confirmed by
the registration number. The abbreviation, IC,
before the registration number signifies that
registration was performed based on a
Declaration of Conformity indicating that
Industry Canada technical specifications were
met. It does not imply that Industry Canada
approved the equipment.

Notice: The Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) for this terminal equipment is 0.7. The
REN assigned to each terminal equipment
provides an indication of the maximum num­ber of terminals allowed to be connected to a
telephone interface. The termination on an
interface may consist of any combination of
devices subject only to the requirement that
the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers
of all the devices does not exceed five.

Before installing this equipment, users should
ensure that it is permissible to be connected
to the facilities of the local telecommunica­tions company. The equipment must also be
installed using an acceptable method of con­nection. The customer should be aware that
compliance with the above conditions may
not prevent degradation of services in some
situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be
made by an authorized Canadian mainte­nance facility designated by the Supplier. Any
repairs or alterations made by the user to this
equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
give the telecommunications company cause
to request the user to disconnect the equip­ment.

Users should ensure for their own protection
that the electrical ground connections of the
power utility, telephone lines and internal
metallic water pipe system, if present, are
connected together. This precaution may be
particularly important in rural areas.

Caution:

Users should not attempt to make such con­nections themselves, but should contact the
appropriate electrical inspection authority or
electrician as appropriate.

Your Cordless Phone is designed to operate
at the maximum power allowed by the FCC
and IC. This means your Handset and Base
Unit can communicate only over a certain dis­tance — which will depend on the location of
the base unit and handset, weather, and the
construction and layout of your home or
office.
