Today the Gigaset Repeater:
Application:
After the old Gigaset has given up the ghost, and was also always a problem with the cordless phone calls at the end of the property,
it was time to change that.
First, a Gigaset DL500A and a handset E 49H was procured.
When DL500A everyone must see if he does not possibly dodge to another base unit. For my needs it is sufficient.
Regarding the E49H: it is the so-called outdoor version.. Fits comfortably in your hand and can be fastened with a belt clip to clothing.
The first test with DL500A and E 49H showed: there must be found a repeater. Ais this reason, a Gigaset repeater was purchased.
At this point, the note: to a base station up to 6 repeaters can be connected according to Gigaset..
Scope of supply:
1 (a) Gigaset Repeater
1 (a) Power Supply
1 (a) Manual
The processing of the repeater is very good. Unfortunately, the repeater can only be used indoors.
DC Document: Love Gigaset team! This is not a manual, but a "nice" booklet. The explanation to connect the repeater to the
Base station is insufficient! At least that must be added to the base station in the repeater mode, then only the reference to the manual
the base station would be helpful.
Furnishings:
When setting up, I had a lot of fun and it had something of Easter because: one had to seek information only how to connect the repeater.
I do not mean the power supply. That was the easy part.
Although the repeater has a button on the back but this left me with no function. May well be that this Gigaset aht changed in the meantime, because Amazon
in the article description is a "registration key" lists.
Registration mode with my repeater to reach still further by the power unit in a certain rhythm and unpluging.
Furthermore, one must note that is activated on the base station, repeater mode.
Fact: Without research at Google, it would have become nothing. It was something fricklig but now it runs.
Line-up:
As the installation location should as far as possible to the highest point in the house choose to get a good look.
While the thickness of the walls and trim is important to take into account. If you paid attention in physics class knows that a
Dont worry aluminum cladding of the exterior facade, concrete or many power lines for a good transmission of radio waves.
The repeater must be able to communicate by radio with the base station.
To check the reception of the signal of the base station, you can use the signal strength indicator on the handset.
So it is possible to determine that at one point the room the signal is stronger and perhaps no signal arrives at a different location.
Operation:
During operation, the Gigaset repeater must depend on the power grid. Fails or the power you have to disconnect the Gigaset Repeater from the power:
Do not worry, for me it has retained its settings.
During ongoing operation, I could not notice any problems with the DL500A and E49H. The range of the handset expanded by commissioning the repeater
with me very well. No dropped calls or talk deterioration, if the handset from the base changes to the repeater.
Before about 10 m range from the base to the handset due to the building. Then with repeater after 50 meters still 4 of 5 bar on the handset, in the free (!) Field in front of the property even after about 100m
