Handset voice quality
and range are not as
good as they were
before.
Electromagnetic fields
are interfering.
Look for 110/Volt lines, fuse boxes,
circuit breakers, electrical junction
boxes, or similar items. Move the
carrier or radio module at least 6
feet (1.8 cm) away from the potential
interference.
There is a large metal
object within 3 feet
(1.2 m) of the radio
module.
Move the carrier or radio module at
least 3 feet (1.2 m) away from the
potential interference.
There is a large metal
object in the "line of
sight" to the radio
module.
Move the metal object, or move the
carrier or radio module.
After pressing O to
turn the handset on,
the handset beeps and
RANGE shows in the
handset display.
Handset is out of range
of its matching radio
module.
An electrical device is
interfering with your
communications link.
Move the handset closer to the
radio module.
Remove the interfering device or
power it off, or move the handset
to another location.
Range for calls is
lower than expected.
The handset antenna is
only partially extended.
Fully extend the handset antenna.
Symptom Possible Causes
Possible Solutions
There are environmental
limitations.
Reinstall the radio module or
carrier away from electrical
equipment and as high as pos-
sible on the wall (but with radio
module antennas 6–12 inches
(15.2–30.5 cm) from the ceiling).
See “General Positioning Rules” in
Chapter 2 for more information.
You are using different
models of handsets and
the mix is incompatible
with the carrier.

Chapter 1.
