FAQ PRO600 & PRO60
Q. Can I add more handsets to my system?
A. You can have up to 5 handsets registered to one base. To purchase additional handsets contact Oricom Customer Support.
Q. The talk and standby time on my handsets has reduced, what is wrong?
A. With use the battery life will reduce. How quickly that happens depends on how the batteries are used and charged. If after a full charge of 14 hours you only get a short amount of talk and standby time, replace the batteries with the same type and capacity as was supplied with the handset. If you have difficulty or are unsure about obtaining batteries contact Oricom Customer Support, they will be able to advise or supply replacement batteries.
Q. My answering machine does not answer calls correctly.
A. Check the number of devices you have connected to the line, try removing some and re test the answering machine. Also listen to the line with your handset and see if you can hear any crackling or other interference, this may indicate a low line signal level which will make it hard for the answering machine to ‘hear’ the ring. Check that if you have ADSL or ADSL2+ that you have a suitable line filter installed on every device connected to the telephone line.
Q. I hear a lot of interference on my telephone when making or receiving calls, what is wrong?
A. DECT cordless phones are free from interference, any interference is probably introduced from the phone line or other source. If you have ADSL or ADSL2+ ensure you have suitable line filters installed on every device connected to the phone line. You should also ensure that the handset and base are located away from other electronic devices such as computers, televisions, microwave ovens and fridges.
Q. The envelope icon is constantly flashing, how do I stop it.
A. The envelope icon flashes when you have new messages on your voicemail service. Check for messages on your Home Messages 101 or Messagbank service. Once these have been reviewed the LED will stop flashing.
Q. My handset shows SEARCHING and I cannot make or receive phone calls how do I fix it.
A. When your handset shows SEARCHING it means it is looking for the base. Try moving closer to the base, if this does not fix the problem perform a reset. To do this, remove the batteries from your handsets. Unplug the power supply and telephone line cord from the base. Leave them like this for 15 minutes. Then plug the power supply and telephone line cord back in and re install your handset batteries. If this does not rectify the problem the handset may have lost its registration to the base. Please refer to your user guide for the instructions on how to re register your handsets to the base.
Q. What Frequency does the phone use and will in interfere with my WiFi modem / router?
A. The phone uses DECT technology which operates on the 1.88GHz to 1.9GHz frequency band. This band is exclusively used for DECT products. WiFi operates on 2.4GHz or 5.8GHz and so will not be affected by the phone.
Q. I cannot make or receive calls.
A. Firstly check that the base is securely plugged into the telephone line at the wall. Check that the power adapter is plugged into a working mains power socket and that the batteries are fully charged. If the phone still does not make or receive calls, perform a reset. To do this, remove the batteries from your handsets. Unplug the power supply and telephone line cord from the base. Leave them like this for 15 minutes. Then plug the power supply and telephone line cord back in and re install your handset batteries.

ORICOM PRO SERIES PHONES Review by Rob
Price Value Quality I am a 65 Y.O. disabled war veteran with moderate hearing impairment and with big problems using a telephone.
Most phones I find are impossible for me to hear, even the amplified ones in most cases. Many offer an amplified receive function which certainly amplifies the incoming audio, but also amplifies the ambient noise which nullifies the benefit of the amplified audio. More signal plus more noise equals no benefit at all.
The only phones I have found that I can actually hear all callers on are the Oricom “Pro” series which have been specially designed with hearing impaired people in mind. The “BOOST” button on the Pro series boosts the signal without the noise and for me it goes from unintelligible to fully understandable…..the difference between being able to use the phone or not!
I don’t know how they do it, but it works.
I am no longer isolated from my family and friends.
Previously I have had an Oricom Pro 600-1 but as we needed an answering machine we have just bought a Pro 900-1. Both phones are essentially the same in function with a large “BOOST” button prominently displayed if you need the extra help like I do. If you don’t engage the boost then the phone is suitable for non-hearing impaired users.
The ring tone is very loud and there is a flashing light to catch your attention if there is other noise masking the ring tone The buttons are large which helps if you have arthritic hands like I do.
The answering machine works well and is easy to use and although modern phones can look complicated because of all the things they do, the Pro series can simply be plugged in straight from the box and it will work well for you. This phone has lots of useful features allowing you to customise it to suit your own needs, but as I said earlier, it works great straight out of the box!
To be honest, living in a fire prone rural area would be too scary if I couldn’t use the phone.
Thank you Oricom.
