Radio credits (U.S. only)
Press CREDIT to see the number of radio credits available and
the total number of radio credits. Verify that the total number
of radio credits is enough to support the system you have just
installed. The number of radio credits must be double the
number of base stations you have installed. If the total number
of radio credits is not enough for the system, you may need to
obtain additional credits. See Software keys (U.S. only) on
page 67.
Cell Assignment
A
cell is the area covered by one or more radios in close
proximity. As you move around your office, while on a call
with your portable, the call is handed off from one cell to
another. A call on a portable can be handed off from one cell
to another only if those cells are programmed as neighbors.
The Norstar system automatically assigns cell neighbors and
re-evaluates the cell-to-cell configuration when base stations
are added or removed.
This setting allows you to determine if a base station radio is
assigned to a cell in the Companion system.
Press and enter the radio number to see the radio
setting: Assigned or Unassigned or select LIST to see all in
sequence.
Antenna Type
Installer password required
This setting allows you to select the type of antenna to use for
each base station in a system.
Press and enter the five-digit radio number or
select LIST to see all in sequence.
Use CHANGE to select the appropriate setting: Internal or
External.
