Setting up the base
Setting up the base
Your base is preconfigured but you can
change the settings to suit your individual
requirements.
The settings described in this chapter only
have a local effect on the base. The corre-
sponding setting on any of the registered
handsets does not change.
Accessing functions and
numbers quickly
You can program the six function keys on the
right-hand side of the base and the display
keys (in idle status). You can assign a phone
number (quick dial) or a base function to
each of these keys and change the assign-
ment.
The number is then dialled or the function
started by simply pressing a key.
Changing key assignments
In idle status:
¤ Press and hold the display/function key
until a list of possible key assignments is
displayed.
The following functions are available:
Quick Dial
Assign a number from the local directory
to the key.
The directory is opened.
¤ Select an entry and press
§OK§.
If you delete or edit the entry in the direc-
tory, this will not affect the assignment to
the function key or display key.
This means that if the phone number
changes, you must re-assign the updated
entry from the directory to the key as
described above.
Alarm Clock

the alarm clock to a key

Bluetooth

Connect Cell Phone
Activate Bluetooth on the base and
establish a connection to the active
Bluetooth mobile
(
¢ page 111).
Headset
Accept or pick up a call with the con-
nected headset. The key simulates the
P2T function (push-to-talk). You must
assign Headset to a key if you wish to use
a headset without P2T (wire-bound or via
Bluetooth).
Press the key
– If a call is signalled on the base and
you wish to accept the call directly on
the headset.
– To continue a call on the headset that
has been started on the base.
If two headsets are connected to the
base, a wire-bound and a Bluetooth
headset, the Bluetooth headset takes pri-
ority. In that case you cannot use the
wire-bound headset.
Insert P
Key inserts a dialling pause (a P) when
entering a number
(
¢ page 134).
