Congratulations!
You have purchased
one of the most sophisticated cordless
telephones on the market!
The VTech
VT 1920c
has been designed to offer
a new standard in cordless telephone
technology.
Unlike most other cordless phones, the
VTech VT 1920c digitizes your voice
using advanced ADPCM digital voice
coding to provide noise and distortion
free performance.
In most conditions
you will not be able to tell you are using
a cordless phone.
Gone are the
annoyances of static, interference and
having to listen to other people’s
conversations on your cordless phone.
The VTech VT 1920c scrambles your
voice before it transmits it.
This allows
you the security of knowing that no one
can tune in and eavesdrop on your
conversations.
The VTech VT 1920c decodes and
displays name and/or number Caller ID
(CID) information where available and
when subscribed to.
The alpha-
numeric display can show both the
name and number of the calling party.
Up to 24 name characters or 11 phone
number digits can be displayed on the
LCD.
With the VTech VT 1920c, the user can
easily answer a call by pressing any
key other than the OFF, MUTE or
VOLUME Keys. In addition, the handset
keypad and LCD illuminate while the
handset rings to signal an incoming
call. This is very useful in a dark
environment.
INTRODUCTION
The VTech VT 1920c
also provides
a one-way Page/Find. Pressing the
base PAGE key will cause the handset
to
ring in a manner which distinguishes
it from normal incoming ringing.
This
can be used to alert the handset user,
or to simply locate the handset in the
event that it is misplaced.
The VTech VT 1920c uses special
memory in both the base and handset
which is not susceptible to power
failures.
This provides permanent
storage of all memory dial numbers,
CID information as well as the base
and handset security codes.
When an optional battery pack is
installed in the base unit, the VTech VT
1920c uses this battery pack to provide
operational backup in case of power
failure.
In this way you have access
to all normal phone functions during a
total power outage.
Calls can still be
placed and received without
interruption.
More than 5 hours backup
will be possible with a fully charged
battery pack in the base unit.
The VTech VT 1920c informs you that
another
extension is currently in use
on the same phone line.
The phone
will also alert you when you are Out
of Range, even when you're not using
the phone!
