SECURITY CODING

1. The length of the handset security code is 16 bytes, i.e. 128 bits.

2. The length of the base security code is 16 bytes, i.e. 128 bits.

3. The total numbers of possible discrete digital codes are 2

128

. This is equal to about 3.4 x 1038 different combinations.

4. Each handset or base unit has a unique security code.

5. Generation of the security code is by employing a sequential fixed approach. During manufacturing, the code will be generated and programmed into the EEPROM of the unit.

SELECTED CHANNEL

The unit may pre-scan available channels and store the detected power levels in memory to facilitate fast selection of a channel when access is required. Since some amount of time is required for a complete scan, the stored power level for a selected channel may have “aged’ since the measurement was taken. The unit is therefore required to re-monitor the selected channel immediately prior to transmission.

44 061210B-1



68,719,476,736 COMBINATION SECURITY CODING

The cordless telephone has a digital coding security system to prevent unauthorized use of your telephone line by other cordless phones nearby. The cordless telephone has 68,719,476,736 possible security code combinations.

Each combination of the code is randomly generated by factory equipment.

IMPROVING CORDLESS RECEPTION

Follow these guidelines to improve cordless sound quality:

•

Select an area to install the unit where it is closest to the center of your home or office. This will improve the operating range of the unit.

•

Keep the base unit away from electrical equipment. Radio Frequency

Interference (RFI) is sometimes generated by these appliances, which can cause degradation in cordless reception.

•

Keep the handset batteries charged as much as possible. Weak handset batteries can limit the range of cordless operation.

MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE

Repeated use or recharge of Ni-Mh batteries without periodic full discharge results in reduced useable charge time. When you notice the usable charge duration decreasing, fully discharge the Ni-Mh battery and recharge as described:

DISCHARGING

1. Unplug the telephone line cord from the 31070.

2. Make sure that the adapter is connected.

3. Lift the handset out of the base cradle.

Note: When the handset battery voltage level is low, the “BATTERY

LOW” icon will flash. Let it fully discharge for 14 hours. Once the Ni-Mh

battery is fully discharged, you should now charge the battery to its full

capacity.

061210B-1 45



CHARGING

1. Make sure the adapter and telephone line cord are connected to the 31070.

2. Place the handset on the base cradle. The CHARGE LED indicator of the base unit will light steadily.

3. Leave the handset charging on the base for 14 hours continuously to get a maximum charge.

4. The 31070 is now ready for regular use. Discharge and charge the Ni-Mh battery again once you notice a decrease in the useable charge time.

MAINTENANCE

1. Your phone should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves or any other appliance that produces heat.

2. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the plastic cabinet. A mild soap will help to remove grease or oil. Never use polish, solvents, abrasives or strong detergents since these can damage the finish.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

This cordless phone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficulties in using radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are normal, the following could affect the operation of your system.

NOISE: Electric pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another.

This noise is most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electric equipment such as light dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio frequencies are susceptible to these noise pulses, you may occasionally hear them in your handset. Generally, they are minor annoyances and should not be interpreted as defects in your system.

RANGE: Because radio frequencies are used, location of the base unit can affect operating range. Try several locations in your home or business and pick the one that gives you the clearest signal.

46 061210B-1



INTERFERENCE: Some electronic devices operate in and/or generate interference near the operating frequencies of your cordless telephone. While several protection circuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals cause interference. If interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by lowering the height of your base antenna or by relocating the base unit. You can check for interference before selecting the final base unit location by plugging in the phone.

If you pick up the phone before the second ring, the caller information will not be correctly received. If you have a telephone answering device (TAD) connected to the unit, set the TAD to answer after two rings or more.

•

If it is a blocked call or an out-of-area call, the caller’s name and/or phone number will not appear on the display.

•

If only the caller’s phone number appears on the display, it may be a Single Data Message

Format (SDMF) call, as opposed to a Multiple

Data Message Format (MDMF) call. Please call your local phone company to see which service you have.

•

On rare occasions, the Caller ID information sent by the telephone company may have an error in the transmission. This is not the fault of your Caller ID unit. It can only capture and store the data that was received.

•

Subscription to Caller ID Call Waiting

(CIDCW) service is required from your local phone company for the CIDCW function to operate properly. Call you local phone company for details.
